Paracambi lies in the Rio de Janeiro Serra da Mantiqueira foothills alongside the Ribeirão das Lajes reservoir, where native Atlantic Forest remnants, eucalyptus, and reservoir watershed vegetation are the main pollen sources. The tropical climate supports year-round pollen production, while the wet summer months bring the most frequent rainfall interruptions and the enclosed valley concentrates pollen under calm conditions throughout.

How often is the Paracambi pollen forecast updated?

Does pollen in Paracambi 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 Paracambi 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 Paracambi, 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.
