In Kanab, high desert dryness is the main influence on air quality, and dust from surrounding sandstone country rises on windy days. These factors combine to give Kanab a fairly typical seasonal air quality pattern for this part of the country. As with most US destinations, conditions here are best understood by season rather than by a single yearly average.

When is air pollution at its worst in Kanab?

Kanab follows a fairly predictable seasonal air quality pattern. Typically, autumn is often the cleanest stretch, between wildfire season and the onset of winter inversions, while summer brings regional wildfire smoke, while winter brings its own inversion-driven pollution episodes. Valley and basin locations are especially prone to these winter inversion episodes compared to more exposed, higher terrain.

Are air quality levels in Kanab 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.
