Tree pollen in Troon comes mostly from birch and pine, with parks and mature gardens standing in contrast to the more built-up centre. The nearby nearby woodland adds further grass and tree pollen exposure, particularly under the prevailing Atlantic airflow. The relatively open, low-lying landscape lets pollen disperse readily across the area through the season.

How often is the Troon pollen forecast updated?

Does pollen in Troon 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 Troon 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 Troon, 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.
