Rialto's air quality reflects the Inland Empire basin's severe topographic enclosure, with vehicle emissions from I-210 and the surrounding logistics and warehouse district in San Bernardino County generating concentrated diesel PM2.5 from freight traffic. The San Gabriel Mountains to the north and the Jurupa Hills to the south create topographic concentration, while the persistent basin inversion traps the combined vehicle and freight emissions throughout much of the year.

The mountains ringing the basin can trap pollution close to the ground for days when winds are calm.

Are air quality levels in Rialto 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.
