Local Environmental Conditions
With no significant tree cover, water, or park mapped close by, grass growing along roadsides and open paddock likely dominates the local pollen profile. Neighboring areas with similar land cover tend to show a closely matching pollen mix. Year-to-year swings in rainfall and wind can shift this picture somewhat either way.
Grass pollen rises through spring toward a November high point, before pollen counts gradually decline through January and February. The overall order of species tends to hold steady, even as exact dates shift slightly each year. Regional pollen monitoring generally reflects this same pattern across nearby areas. Small variations in local weather can nudge these windows a few days in either direction.

How often is the Maralinga Tjarutja pollen forecast updated?
The Maralinga Tjarutja pollen forecast is updated four times daily. See the timestamp below for the most recent update.
Does pollen in Maralinga Tjarutja 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 Maralinga Tjarutja 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 Maralinga Tjarutja, 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. |
