Palmeira dos Índios' air quality reflects the Alagoas Agreste semi-arid interior at 270 metres, with vehicle emissions from the BR-316 and surrounding cotton, cattle, and agribusiness operations contributing local sources. Drought conditions and Caatinga burning contribute seasonal PM10 elevation, while the semi-arid terrain generally allows reasonable wind dispersal on most days and the inland position reduces the beneficial Atlantic trade wind coastal ventilation throughout the year.
