Arles' Rhône River waterfront and the Camargue corridor feature olive, plane, and poplar as the main tree pollen sources, with exposure varying between these green areas and the more built-up city centre. The Camargue wetlands to the south contribute distinctive reed and grass pollen locally, while surrounding Provence farmland adds additional exposure and the Mistral wind can rapidly disperse or concentrate pollen across the historic Roman city.

Olive and plane open the season from January before grass from surrounding Provence farmland and the Camargue peaks through March and April. The distinctive Camargue wetlands contribute reed pollen locally, while the hot, dry summer ends the season abruptly by May.
How often is the Arles pollen forecast updated?

The Arles pollen forecast is updated four times daily. See the timestamp below for the most recent update.

Does pollen in Arles 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 Arles 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 Arles, 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.
