Araripina lies in the Pernambuco sertão on the Araripe plateau edge as the centre of gypsum mining, where native caatinga scrub, carnauba wax palm, and sparse drought-adapted trees are the main pollen sources. The very semi-arid climate produces an extremely compressed wet season from February to May, while the long dry season strongly concentrates pollen production and the open northeastern sertão landscape allows very wide pollen dispersal throughout.

How often is the Araripina pollen forecast updated?
The Araripina pollen forecast is updated four times daily. See the timestamp below for the most recent update.
Does pollen in Araripina come from nearby or far away?
Studies show that most pollen exposure (often 70–90%) comes from nearby sources, such as local trees and vegetation. A good pollen forecast therefore depends on accurately representing local vegetation. Pollen can travel long distances, but this usually matters only early in the season or during specific wind events.
Are pollen levels in Araripina based on measurements or forecasts?
Pollen data is often misunderstood. Most "pollen levels" are not real-time measurements, but forecasts.
Direct pollen measurements are typically delayed by 1-2 days because they require manual analysis. To show current conditions in Araripina, modern forecasts combine recent measurements, weather data, and information about local vegetation.
This allows us to estimate pollen levels for today and the coming days, not just report the past.
