Local Environmental Conditions
Kalundborg's older residential streets are lined with lime and horse chestnut, with beech dominating the wooded slopes above the fjord. West Zealand's extensive grain and rapeseed fields ring the town, and the sheltered fjord basin can trap pollen on still, windless days rather than clearing it out to sea.
Kalundborg sees pollen building from January, when hazel and alder open the season along the fjord, before birch takes over as the dominant source through April and May. Grass follows through June and July. The sheltered Kalundborg Fjord limits dispersal on calm days, while the surrounding west Zealand grain belt adds a strong crop pollen pulse each summer.

How often is the Kalundborg pollen forecast updated?

Does pollen in Kalundborg 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 Kalundborg 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 Kalundborg, 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. |
