Local Environmental Conditions
Around 83% of the area near this site in Mount Macedon is woodland, with some open grassland. Close to a watercourse, riverside vegetation contributes to what is in the air. The surrounding woodland makes trees an important local pollen source. Grasses also feature strongly, alongside plantain and pigweed among the weeds.
Flowering trees bring the first pollen of the year in mid-spring. Then come the grasses, strongest in early summer and fading by late summer. Plantain and pigweed bring a final peak from mid-spring into early fall. Spring is the wettest time of year, and heavy showers can bring short breaks in pollen. By early winter, as temperatures fall to around 5°C, pollen levels are low again.
