St Andrews Links' Old Course setting features marram grass, fescue, and gorse as the main pollen sources across the world's most famous links, with exposure varying between the exposed West Sands coastal holes and the more sheltered town-side fairways. The St Andrews Bay coastal position means onshore winds can frequently disperse pollen, while the relatively dry east coast Fife climate means the season is less interrupted than on Scotland's west coast.

Does pollen in Dundee 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 Dundee 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 Dundee, 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.
