Gresham's air quality reflects the Sandy River valley at the eastern Portland metropolitan edge, with vehicle emissions from I-84 and the Columbia River Gorge commuter corridor contributing local sources. Summer wildfire smoke from Oregon and Washington forests is an increasingly severe seasonal concern, while the Gorge's powerful easterly winds periodically flush Portland's eastern suburbs with cleaner Columbia Plateau air.

Prevailing onshore winds usually keep pollution moving rather than letting it settle.

Are air quality levels in Gresham 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.
