About Pollen in Glasgow

Birch (late March-May) and Oak (April-May) pollen, originating from city parks like Pollok Country Park and Glasgow Green, dominate spring; late May-July brings pervasive Grass pollen from urban meadows, Clyde/Kelvin riverbanks, and suburban areas. Glasgow’s urban basin topography often traps airborne pollen, intensifying concentrations, particularly during still, dry conditions; autumn/winter (August-November) presents elevated mould spore counts, driven by dampness, leaf decomposition in wooded zones, and high humidity.
