Pollen monitoring: minimum requirements and reproducibility of analysis

TL;DR: An updated Minimum Requirements Report for pollen monitoring is formulated and the proposed Minimum Recommendations will help to improve the quality of scientific work, particularly for those who are considering the setting up of new monitoring sites.
Journal ArticleDOI

The aerodynamics of wind pollination

TL;DR: The efficiency of wind pollination is shown to be dictated principally by the vectoral properties of air currents created by and around ovulate organs and the physical properties of pollen that dictate their behavior as airborne particles.

Bioaerosols in Indoor Environment - A Review with Special Reference to Residential and Occupational Locations

TL;DR: In this article, a literature study has been performed regarding the levels of these microorganisms in various indoor occupational (e.g., schools, offices, hospitals, museums) and dwelling environments and the results will provide a significant scientific basis for indoor air quality control and help in elaborating risk prevention programs for workers and dwellers.

Thunderstorm outflows preceding epidemics of asthma during spring and summer

TL;DR: Findings are consistent with the hypothesis that some epidemics of exacerbations of asthma are caused by high concentrations of allergenic particles produced by an outflow of colder air, associated with the downdraught from a thunderstorm, sweeping up pollen grains and particles and then concentrating them in a shallow band of air at ground level.

An evaluation of the microscopical counting methods of the tape in hirst-burkard pollen and spore trap

TL;DR: Three different sampling units in current use and different sampling strategies were tested and it is not safe to choose an “effectively collecting area”, instead the whole width of the tape should be studied.
