Irvington's air quality reflects the northern New Jersey industrial corridor in Essex County adjacent to Newark, with vehicle emissions from I-78 and the surrounding dense urban industrial and residential character contributing elevated NOₓ and PM2.5. The broader New York-New Jersey metropolitan area's combined traffic and industrial emissions from Newark's port corridor consistently elevate background pollution across the entire northern New Jersey urban corridor, while Newark Airport's approach contributes aviation PM2.5 throughout the year.

When is air pollution at its worst in Irvington?
Irvington sees air quality change through the year — once summer ozone season ends, winter typically offers the cleanest air, whereas extended summer heat waves, often worsened by regional haze, bring the toughest air quality stretch. Suburban and rural areas generally see less of the persistent traffic-driven pollution that affects the urban core.
Are air quality levels in Irvington 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.
