Species driving Kenai’s ragweed pollen

Species-level counts are not part of the modelled data Pollen Atlas publishes — the modelled index is reported per pollen type, not per species — so this section gives the type summary: ragweed pollen reads 0.6 (Low) today. The plant-by-plant detail that is available, from the Google Pollen API, is in the next section.

How to read this: the “ragweed” figure on this site is the modelled weed pollen index — the weed group (ragweed + mugwort) — printed under the ragweed name the rankings use.

What this ragweed pollen level means

There is no ragweed chapter at these latitudes — ragweed is essentially absent, and the late window belongs to mold. This month sits outside the usual ragweed pollen window for the Alaska pattern, so today’s ragweed pollen reading is the modelled value outranking the calendar — this page reports the modelled reading first. The Alaska allergy season guide singles out paper birch, dominating a compressed May peak, with alder and cottonwood opening for it.
