Svortland is a small Vestland village in Bømlo municipality on the Bømlo island in the outer Hardangerfjord where birch, hazel, and island farmland vegetation are the main local pollen sources. The North Sea island position means onshore winds can frequently disperse pollen, while the Atlantic Vestland oceanic climate advances the season and birch peaks through April and May before grass from surrounding Bømlo farmland contributes through June and July and mugwort extends into September.

Does pollen in Svortland 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 Svortland 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 Svortland, 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.
