Içara's air quality reflects the Santa Catarina southern coastal plain near the Rio Grande do Sul border, with vehicle emissions from the BR-101 and surrounding ceramic tile, coal mining, and light manufacturing contributing local sources. The coal mining legacy in the broader Criciúma-Içara corridor generates elevated PM2.5 and SO₂ background, while Atlantic sea breezes from the Santa Catarina coast provide coastal ventilation throughout most of the year.
