The study built upon previous modelling studies focused on central Alberta and expanded the scope to include all regions of Alberta. Other improvements in this study included modelling a complete calendar year, emissions inventory updates for key sectors, and sector-based source apportionment for seven distinct sectors. Province-wide source apportionment will help inform air quality management initiatives, such as managing against the Canadian Ambient Air Quality Standards and other provincial air quality frameworks.2019-01-16T21:42:03.495413+00:00https://open.alberta.ca/dataset/9b00aab3-c37d-4080-854e-5f329c621b92Status of air quality in Alberta : air zones report2023-08-25T14:13:47.289096+00:00These reports summarize the Canadian Ambient Air Quality Standards status for Alberta’s air zones for ambient concentrations of fine particulate matter, ground-level ozone, nitrogen dioxide, and sulphur dioxide.

Emissions by industry sector and predicted regional distribution of emissions are also presented. Information provided in this document shows that strong economic activity and population growth has led to increases and projections of continual increases of some air emissions such as ammonia, sulphur oxides, oxides of nitrogen, volatile organic compounds, fine particulate matter, and greenhouse gas emissions. Emissions of carbon monoxide are decreasing mainly due to technology improvements in the transportation sector.2018-06-20T15:53:14.060911+00:00https://open.alberta.ca/dataset/b1a629d4-0ca6-41b7-8122-0e43aceeed542016 status of air quality, Lower Athabasca Region, Alberta for January 2016 – December 20162023-09-05T20:17:26.587924+00:00Presents results of monitoring of nitrogen dioxide and sulphur dioxide concentrations at air monitoring stations in the Lower Athabasca region, and reports whether air quality triggers or limits were exceeded during this period.
