Regional Data Reports
These data reports provide detailed insights into the air quality data collected over the past year using Clarity monitors. One report compares air quality across all three regions in the Collaborative monitoring network and evaluates patterns in relation to Spare the Air days. The remaining reports focus on individual regions—San Francisco, South San Francisco/San Bruno, and Oakland—and examine broader trends in pollutants over time.
