Fundudzi Lake lies roughly 110 km northeast of Polokwane. Fundudzi Lake's bushveld setting features acacia, mopane, and indigenous bushveld trees as the main pollen sources, with exposure varying between densely vegetated bushveld and more open, built-up sections. Surrounding savanna and citrus and subtropical farming operations contribute substantial grass pollen through the summer rainfall season each year, consistent with the broader bushveld savanna environment.

Does pollen in Thohoyandou 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 Thohoyandou 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 Thohoyandou, 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.
