Lajes spreads across the Santa Catarina southern highlands as the Planalto Catarinense's main city, where native campo grassland, Araucaria pine, and eucalyptus are the main pollen sources on this elevated plateau. The subtropical highland climate produces a well-defined pollen season, with grass from the native campos peaking in spring and summer and the Araucaria pine contributing a distinctive and locally dominant source throughout this important Santa Catarina highland municipality.

How often is the Lajes pollen forecast updated?
The Lajes pollen forecast is updated four times daily. See the timestamp below for the most recent update.
Does pollen in Lajes 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 Lajes 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 Lajes, 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.
