Capanema's air quality reflects the northeastern Pará Amazon coastal zone near the Gurupi river, with consistent Atlantic trade winds providing background ventilation. Vehicle emissions from the BR-316 and surrounding agricultural and palm oil operations contribute local sources, while dry season burning from surrounding Pará Amazon deforestation generates intense PM2.5 episodes between July and November that represent the primary seasonal air quality challenge throughout the year.
