Esztergom, on the Danube bend near the Slovak border, draws most of its pollen from birch and hornbeam among local trees, with grass and crop pollen contributing from farmland and green corridors around Komárom-Esztergom. The built environment here creates a patchy exposure pattern, generally higher near parks and lower along the busiest streets.

Does pollen in Esztergom 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 Esztergom 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 Esztergom, 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.
