Local Environmental Conditions
Resende occupies the Paraíba do Sul valley in São Paulo near the Itatiaia National Park, where native Atlantic Forest remnants, eucalyptus, and the Paraíba do Sul River corridor vegetation are the main pollen sources below the dramatic Mantiqueira escarpment. The tropical highland climate produces a more defined pollen season, with the dry season concentrating pollen dispersal and the wet summer months bringing frequent rainfall interruptions throughout this Paraíba valley military and industrial city.
The dry season brings Resende's heaviest pollen exposure, led by native Atlantic Forest remnants and the Paraíba do Sul River corridor vegetation pollen, before the wet season restores more frequent rainfall interruptions.

How often is the Resende pollen forecast updated?

Does pollen in Resende 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 Resende 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 Resende, 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. |
