Teresópolis climbs into the Rio de Janeiro Serra Fluminense highlands beneath the famous Dedo de Deus rock formation, where native Atlantic Forest remnants, eucalyptus, and highland campo vegetation are the main pollen sources. The very wet Serra Fluminense climate provides very frequent rainfall interruptions, while the elevated mountain setting creates variable local conditions and the subtropical highland climate produces a well-defined pollen season throughout.

Does pollen in Teresópolis 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 Teresópolis 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 Teresópolis, 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.
