Albuquerque's Bosque Trail air quality benefits from the Rio Grande cottonwood riparian forest's exceptional natural filtration along Albuquerque's western green corridor, with the 2,000-hectare Bosque providing outstanding natural buffering. Vehicle traffic on the surrounding access roads contributes very modest local sources, while the cottonwood forest's extraordinary urban wildland setting generally maintains the Bosque Trail among Albuquerque's cleanest urban environments and the Rio Grande breeze provides reliable corridor ventilation throughout most of the year.
