Santo Amaro's air quality reflects its position in the greater Salvador metropolitan northern corridor in Bahia, with vehicle emissions from the BA-093 and surrounding mixed agricultural and residential character contributing local sources. Atlantic trade winds from the Bahia Recôncavo coast provide general background ventilation, while the Recôncavo's tobacco, sugarcane, and agricultural landscape contributes organic aerosols during the harvest season and the growing metropolitan expansion drives increasing vehicle emissions.
