Itaituba's air quality faces severe seasonal challenges as a major Pará Amazon river city at the gateway to the BR-163 Soy Highway corridor, with dry season burning from surrounding Amazon deforestation generating intense PM2.5 episodes between June and October. Vehicle emissions from the BR-230 contribute year-round, while the flat Tapajós river basin's calm dry season conditions allow agricultural and deforestation smoke to accumulate extensively.
