Local Environmental Conditions
Here, just outside the immediate area, river oak lines the bank, contributing some of the season's more persistent wind-borne pollen. Located not far from here, this area has tree cover made up mostly of eucalypt and wattle, wattle in particular a well-known seasonal trigger. Actual counts still shift year to year with temperature, rainfall, and prevailing wind.
The water-adjacent river oak is an early riser, peaking in mid-winter through September. As spring approaches, eucalypt and wattle in the nearby woodland become the dominant source, typically landing in August and September. By late spring, grass pollen is climbing steadily toward a November high point, then holding at a high level well into January before easing off.

How often is the Carnarvon Park pollen forecast updated?

Does pollen in Carnarvon Park 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 Carnarvon Park 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 Carnarvon Park, 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. |
