Local Environmental Conditions
The area around this part of Deakin is a mix of woodland and open grassland, plus a good deal of built-up land. With a watercourse close by, riverside trees such as willow contribute to the local mix. Elm, willow and cypress are among the allergenic trees nearby. Grasses and weeds such as plantain and pigweed round out the local mix.
First to flower are elm and cypress, in late winter. Willow follows in early spring, as temperatures climb to around 10°C, and tree pollen reaches its peak. Grasses take over in early summer and keep pollen in the air into late summer. The season closes with plantain and pigweed from mid-spring into early fall. Spring is the wettest time of year, and heavy showers can bring short breaks in pollen.

Does pollen in Deakin 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 Deakin 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 Deakin, 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.
