Local Environmental Conditions
River oak thrives along the damp bank, a classic riparian wind-pollinator in this part of Australia, a short distance from here. Nearby, close by, woodland where eucalypt stands alongside wattle, the latter especially aggressive as an allergen when in full flower. Parkland with regularly mown grass and planted plane trees, both sources of seasonal pollen, within the neighborhood.
River oak by the water is typically first out of the gate, topping out well before most other trees start releasing pollen, around July and August. Woodland eucalypt and wattle pick up the pace next, through late winter into spring, reaching maximum intensity across the August-September window. Grass pollen climbs toward a November peak, before gradually tapering off through the peak of summer into February.

Does pollen in Sydney Olympic Park 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 Sydney Olympic Park 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 Sydney Olympic Park, 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. |
