Pontes e Lacerda's air quality reflects the Mato Grosso western plateau at 263 metres near the Bolivian border on the Guaporé river valley, with vehicle emissions from the MT-370 and surrounding cattle, soybean, and agricultural operations contributing local sources. Dry season burning from surrounding Mato Grosso Amazon and Cerrado agricultural conversion generates intense PM2.5 episodes between June and October, while the flat valley terrain's calm dry season conditions allow fire smoke to accumulate extensively.
