Benevides' air quality reflects the greater Belém metropolitan area in the Pará Amazon estuary zone, with vehicle emissions from the BR-316 and surrounding agricultural and urban growth contributing local sources. Atlantic equatorial airflows provide background ventilation, while dry season Amazon burning from surrounding Pará deforestation generates intense PM2.5 episodes between July and November that dominate the seasonal air quality across the entire greater Belém metropolitan corridor throughout the burning season.
