Isalathiso soMgangatho woMoya (AQI) luphawu lwamanqanaba oxinzelelo longcoliseko lomoya. Inika amanani kwisikali phakathi kwe-0 kunye ne-500 kwaye isetyenziselwa ukunceda ukufumanisa xa kulindeleke ukuba umgangatho womoya ungabikho mpilweni.
Ngokusekwe kwimigangatho yomgangatho womoya womanyano, i-AQI ibandakanya imilinganiselo yezingcolisi zomoya ezithandathu: i-ozone, i-carbon monoxide, i-nitrogen dioxide, i-sulphur dioxide, kunye neesayizi ezimbini ze-particle. KuMmandla weBay, ezona zinto zingcolisayo ezinokukhokelela kwi-Spare the Air Alert yi-ozone, phakathi kuka-Epreli no-Oktobha, kunye ne-particle, phakathi kukaNovemba noFebruwari.
Inombolo nganye ye-AQI ibhekiselele kwizixa ezithile zongcoliseko lomoya. Ubuninzi bezinto ezingcolileyo ezithandathu ezimele itshathi ye-AQI, umgangatho we-federal uhambelana nenani le-100. Ukuba ukuxinwa kokungcola kuphakama ngaphezu kwe-100, umgangatho womoya unokuba yingozi kuluntu.

Ukufundwa okungaphantsi kwe-100 kwi-AQI akufanele kuchaphazele impilo yoluntu ngokubanzi, nangona ukufundwa kwinqanaba eliphakathi kwe-50 ukuya kwi-100 kunokuchaphazela abantu abanovelwano ngokungaqhelekanga. Amanqanaba angaphezu kwama-300 awafane enzeki eMelika.
Xa iSithili soMoya silungiselela uqikelelo lwemihla ngemihla lwe-AQI, lulinganisa ugxininiso olulindelekileyo lwento nganye kwezintandathu ezingcolisayo ezibandakanyiweyo kwisalathiso, siguqula ukufundwa sibe ngamanani e-AQI, kwaye sixela eyona nombolo iphezulu ye-AQI kwindawo nganye yokunika ingxelo. I-Spare the Air Alert ibizwa kwi-Bay Area xa umgangatho womoya ulindeleke ukuba ungabikho sempilweni kuyo nayiphi na imimandla emihlanu yokunika ingxelo.
