Local Environmental Conditions
Around 94% of the area near this site in Dixon Lane-Meadow Creek is bare ground. With much of the immediate area made up of bare ground, local pollen production is limited, though pollen can still drift in from surrounding land. Grasses and pigweed growing in the surroundings are the main non-tree sources of pollen.
Grasses take over in early summer, with temperatures around 20°C, and their pollen lingers into early fall. Later, pigweed keeps weed pollen in the air from early summer into early fall. Winter is the wettest time of year, and heavy showers can bring short breaks in pollen. By late fall, as temperatures fall to around 5°C, pollen levels are low again.
