Local Environmental Conditions
Brive-la-Gaillarde's parks and the Garonne corridor feature oak and plane as the main tree pollen sources, with exposure varying between green areas and the more built-up centre. The vineyard land and the Landes pine forest nearby are a major source of grass pollen later in the season, with the oceanic-continental climate influencing the intensity and timing of exposure.
In Brive-la-Gaillarde, the pollen season typically opens in January with hazel and alder, before oak and plane pollen takes over through April and May, before the season closes with grass from vineyard and farmland through early summer, a pattern typical of the oceanic-continental climate here.

Does pollen in Brive-la-Gaillarde 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 Brive-la-Gaillarde 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 Brive-la-Gaillarde, 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. |
