Local Environmental Conditions
Terras da Comporta's Comporta coastal dune setting features marram grass, stone pine, and lavender as the main pollen sources across the natural dune course, with exposure varying between the exposed dune ridge fairways and the more sheltered cork oak woodland sections. The Atlantic coastal position means onshore winds can periodically disperse pollen, while the Sado estuary proximity contributes distinctive wetland vegetation pollen and the Atlantic climate provides regular interruptions.
Pine and dune scrub pollen peak in February and March across the Comporta dunes, with the surrounding rice paddies adding a mild, localized grass pollen note in early summer. From June, dry conditions generally keep pollen levels low for the rest of the season.

How often is the Lisbon pollen forecast updated?
The Lisbon pollen forecast is updated four times daily. See the timestamp below for the most recent update.
Does pollen in Lisbon 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 Lisbon 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 Lisbon, 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. |
