Local Environmental Conditions
This area, just around the area, has river oak grows along the bank here, releasing fine wind-borne pollen typical of casuarina species. Located not far from here, this area has maintained parkland where turf grass and ornamental plane trees add to the local pollen mix. Year-to-year swings in rainfall and wind can shift this picture somewhat either way.
At Yarra Yarra Golf Club, near the bank, river oak leads the seasonal calendar, topping out well before most other trees start releasing pollen, around July and August. Spring brings rising grass pollen that crests in November, holding through the summer months before tapering off by late February. This general pattern holds fairly steady across the surrounding region from year to year.

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. |
