River dynamics and the diversity of Amazon lowland forest

TL;DR: In this paper, large-scale natural forest disturbance and primary succession in the lowland rainforests of the Peruvian Amazon is caused by lateral erosion and channel changes of meandering rivers.
Journal ArticleDOI
Significance of sampling height of airborne particles for aerobiological information.
TL;DR: It is concluded that especially the beginning of flowering should be monitored at a low level, because most pollen types were higher on the ground than at roof level, but the counts were significantly correlated.
Journal ArticleDOI
Pollen seasons: forecasts of the most important allergenic plants in Finland.
TL;DR: There are wide year‐to‐year variations in the start of pollen seasons could very much depend on the mean temperature in April, however, a forecasting model based on this and other spring‐time temperature parameters often fails to give sufficiently accurate forecasts.
Journal ArticleDOI
Localization of allergenic molecules in pollen grains
TL;DR: It has been shown that most of these proteins diffuse into surrounding solutions already in a few seconds, which means that the diffusion of proteins and their allergic properties are not dependent on the germination of the pollen grains, and probably not either on their viability.
Journal ArticleDOI
Comparison of some pollen concentrations in Finland and the Estonian SSR
TL;DR: Pinus andJuniperus showed a significant correlation (number of pollen grains at the same date) between Tartu and Turku and between TurkU and Kuopio andKuopio, and Poaceae andUrtica andRumex were correlated between all the sites, as wasRumex except between TartU and TurkU.
