ENVIRONMENT & ANALYSIS

Local Environmental Conditions

São Gonçalo do Amarante lines the Rio Grande do Norte coast west of Natal near the Augusto Severo international airport, where native caatinga scrub, restinga coastal scrub, and introduced urban trees are the main pollen sources. The tropical climate supports year-round pollen production, while the wet season from February to July provides the most frequent rainfall interruptions and coastal onshore breezes can periodically disperse pollen throughout.

São Gonçalo do Amarante produces pollen year-round given its equatorial setting, with native caatinga scrub and restinga coastal scrub pollen present throughout; the wet season from February to July brings the most frequent rainfall interruptions to an otherwise steady pollen presence.

Does pollen in São Gonçalo do Amarante 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 São Gonçalo do Amarante 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 São Gonçalo do Amarante, 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.
