Local Environmental Conditions
The area around this site in Gibraltar Range is heavily wooded. A stream or river nearby means riverside vegetation is part of the local pollen picture. So much tree cover makes trees an important source of pollen locally. Grasses add a sizeable share of the local pollen. Clearings, tracks and woodland edges let grasses and other flowering plants grow among the trees.
Tree pollen comes first, peaking in early spring. Grasses take over in mid-spring and keep pollen in the air into early fall. Weeds on open ground add a smaller late peak from early summer into early fall. Warm, damp weather from midsummer into mid-fall also raises mold spore levels. Actual levels on any given day depend on the weather, with dry, breezy days the worst and wet days the mildest.

Does pollen in Gibraltar Range 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 Gibraltar Range 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 Gibraltar Range, 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 pollen scores represent risk levels, not direct pollen measurements. Higher scores indicate higher risk.
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. |
