Tubarão's air quality faces significant challenges from the Complexo Termelétrico Jorge Lacerda coal-fired power station, one of Brazil's largest coal power plants generating elevated SO₂ and PM2.5 alongside vehicle traffic on the BR-101 in this Santa Catarina coastal city. Atlantic sea breezes provide periodic coastal ventilation, while the power station plume dominates under northerly wind conditions throughout the year.
