Mount Maunganui at Totara St

This site was established in August 2005 to provide information about air quality in an industrial area. PM10 and S02 are measured at this site. 

 

We verify our data before it is shared publicly to ensure its accuracy so no live data is displayed here. We need this level of accuracy to support the National Environmental Standards for Air Quality monitoring and any potential enforcement action. There is a delay of up to approximately six weeks before the data is visible, and it can be viewed by selecting Show more information + and a minimum time period of 30 days.

Scientific Indicators
Scientific data for this site

This dashboard shows the latest results for air quality indicators collected by regional councils and unitary authorities.  Indicators are shown against the National Environmental Standards for Air Quality (NES-AQ).  Where no national standards exist for the air quality measurements shown, the data are compared against other guidelines (e.g. World Health Organization (WHO) 2021 guidelines, Ambient Air Quality Guidelines (AAQG)).  

Select 'Show more information +' under a dashboard to see the current and historical monitoring data.

    What is this graph showing me?

    This graph shows how concentrations of PM10 change on an hourly, daily, monthly or annual basis for the selected time period. The number of exceedance days can be viewed over the last 10 years or all years if available.

    The PM10 daily average concentrations and exceedance days are compared to the National Standard (NES-AQ), and the PM10 annual average concentrations are compared to the WHO guideline.  The standard and guideline limits are denoted by the red horizontal line.   There are no guidelines for hourly or monthly average concentrations.  For information about allowable exceedances and targets, and the limitations of data shown, see the factsheet on monitoring air quality in New Zealand. 

    The concentrations depend on local sources of emissions and weather conditions. Emissions from various sources change, depending on whether it's a weekday or the weekend or at different times of the year (e.g. emissions from home heating go up in the cold winter months).  Still conditions often lead to high concentrations, as there is no wind to blow away the pollutants in the air.  At some monitoring sites, the hourly temperature and wind data are available to explore the relationship between local weather conditions and PM10 concentrations.  See this factsheet about why air quality is important and factors that influence air quality.

    What is this graph showing me?

    This graph shows how concentrations of sulphur dioxide change on an hourly, daily, monthly or annual basis for the selected time period.  The number of exceedance hours can be viewed over the last 10 years or all years if available.  

    The sulphur dioxide hourly average concentrations are compared to the National Standard (NES-AQ). The sulphur dioxide daily average concentrations are compared to the WHO guideline.  The standard and guideline limits are denoted by the red horizontal line. There are no guidelines for monthly or annual average concentrations.  For information about allowable exceedances and targets, and the limitations of data shown, see the factsheet on monitoring air quality in New Zealand.
