Des Moines' Waveland Park air quality benefits from the historic golf course and park greenspace providing natural filtration. Vehicle traffic on the surrounding University Avenue corridor contributes modest local sources, while the park's open geometry and the flat terrain allow reasonable dispersal and Waveland Park generally maintains among Des Moines' more moderately ventilated recreational environments throughout most of the year.
