Oslo Ekeberg Park features birch, oak, and pine as the main pollen sources on this wooded Ekeberg plateau above eastern Oslo overlooking the Oslofjord. The elevated position means fjord winds can periodically disperse pollen, while birch peaks through April and May, grass peaks through June and July, and mugwort extends into September throughout.

How often is the Oslo pollen forecast updated?

Does pollen in Oslo 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 Oslo 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 Oslo, 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.
