Local Environmental Conditions
The area around the heart of Nicholls is a patchwork of built-up land, open grassland and woodland. With a stream or river close by, riverside vegetation contributes to the local mix. Trees are an important local pollen source, given how much woodland surrounds the area. Grass pollen is significant here, and plantain and pigweed contribute weed pollen.
Tree pollen comes first, peaking in early spring. Grasses take over in early summer, with temperatures around 20°C, and their pollen lingers into early fall. Later, plantain and pigweed keep weed pollen in the air from mid-spring into early fall. Rain is heaviest in spring, often giving short breaks from high pollen levels. By early winter, as temperatures fall to around 5°C, pollen levels are low again.

How often is the Nicholls pollen forecast updated?
The Nicholls pollen forecast is updated four times daily. See the timestamp below for the most recent update.
Does pollen in Nicholls 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 Nicholls 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 Nicholls, 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.
Airmine’s atmospheric monitoring platform was developed with support from the European Space Agency (ESA)’s Business Applications and Space Solutions (BASS) team, using satellite and Earth observation technologies to improve emissions monitoring.
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. |
