Local Environmental Conditions
Here, just outside the immediate area, the nearest creek or river hosts river oak, among the most allergenic wind-pollinated trees found on watercourses. Located in the surrounding area, this area has a park combining lawn grass and plane trees, both contributors to pollen here through the warmer months. Local wind exposure and land use can shift the exact mix slightly from block to block.
Along the waterway, river oak releases pollen first, peaking in mid-winter through September. As spring turns to summer, grass pollen rises toward its November high, before staying elevated through the summer months into late January. Neighboring parts of the region typically see this same sequence with only minor timing shifts.

Does pollen in Dunsborough 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 Dunsborough 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 Dunsborough, 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. |
