About Pollen in Novosibirsk

Novosibirsk’s spring allergy season (May–June) is dominated by Birch and Pine pollen; Silver Birch (Betula pendula) is heavy in Zaeltsevsky Park and Beryozovaya Roshcha; Scots Pine (Pinus sylvestris) originates from surrounding taiga forests. Summer (June–August) sees high Poplar (Populus) and Grass (Poaceae) levels, originating from the Ob River embankments and Central Park. Wormwood (Artemisia) contributes significantly from the nearby Siberian steppe.

Flat terrain and the Ob River corridor influence regional pollen dispersal. Autumn and winter see high Mould (Alternaria, Cladosporium) counts, from decaying leaf litter in Academgorodok forests and damp riverside areas.
