Where Adelaide's grass pollen comes from

Pasture and grassland around Adelaide are the main source of spring grass pollen here; the Victorian method is applied with local satellite greenness and has not been checked against local counts. On the map, particles leave pasture cells (ABARES land use) and ride today's forecast wind. Their number follows today's modelled level, so a dense stream means a high day. This season's peak is expected around 4 November, from the 2017-2025 average timing until this spring's pasture drying is observed by satellite.
