Pollen Count & Forecast for Recife
About Pollen in Recife
Recife’s dry season (September-February) is dominated by grass and tree pollen; Bermuda Grass (Cynodon dactylon) prolific near the Capibaribe River; Bahia Grass (Paspalum notatum) widespread in Parque Dona Lindu. Mango (Mangifera indica) and Cashew (Anacardium occidentale) contribute significantly from Parque da Jaqueira. Summer (December-February) sees high Grass (Poaceae) pollen levels, originating from the banks of the Beberibe River.
Coastal humidity and high rainfall trap allergens near the shore, leading to localised high concentrations. The wet season (March-August) sees high Mould (Aspergillus, Penicillium) spore counts, from the Atlantic Forest fragments in Horto Dois Irmãos and damp urban environments.
