Local Environmental Conditions
Itaberaba commands the Bahia central plateau between the caatinga and cerrado zones, where native caatinga scrub, cerrado trees, and eucalyptus are the main pollen sources. The semi-arid climate produces a compressed wet season, while the long dry season concentrates pollen production and the open northeastern landscape allows pollen to disperse widely throughout.
The dry season brings Itaberaba's heaviest pollen exposure, led by native caatinga scrub and cerrado trees pollen, before the wet season restores more frequent rainfall interruptions.

How often is the Itaberaba pollen forecast updated?

Does pollen in Itaberaba 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 Itaberaba 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 Itaberaba, 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.

Understanding the Scale
The 0–100 scores represent risk levels, not direct measurements of pollen or air pollutant concentrations. Higher scores indicate higher risk. Pollen and air quality use different thresholds.
Pollen
| None | 0 | No or negligible risk of exposure. Pollen/mold exposure is expected to be minimal. |
| Low | 0-25 | Low risk of exposure. Small amounts of pollen or mold spores may be present. |
| Moderate | 25-50 | Moderate risk of exposure. Pollen/mold exposure is expected to be noticeable. |
| High | 50-75 | High risk of exposure. Elevated pollen/mold exposure is expected. |
| Very High | 75-100 | Very high risk of exposure. Pollen/mold exposure is expected to be at or near its highest levels. |
