Clemson's air quality is shaped largely by humid Piedmont summers; the lakeside setting helps moderate local air quality. These factors combine to give Clemson a fairly typical seasonal air quality pattern for this part of the country. Local topography and prevailing winds both play a role in how quickly conditions change.

Prescribed burns are more common in the cooler months and can add brief smoke episodes.
Are air quality levels in Clemson based on measurements or forecasts?
It is forecasts derived by downscaling forecasts provided by EU’s Copernicus Atmosphere Monitoring Service (CAMS) by taking into account local conditions such as traffic patterns. CAMS bases its forecast on satellite measurements of particles and chemical compounds in the atmosphere. Airmine’s services were developed with support from the European Space Agency (ESA)’s Business Applications and Space Solutions (BASS) team.
