A progressive global increase in the burden of allergic diseases has affected industrialized world over last half century and been reported literature. The clinical evidence reveals a general both incidence prevalence respiratory diseases, such as rhinitis (common hay fever) asthma. Such phenomena may be related not only to air pollution changes lifestyle, but also an actual airborne quantities allergenic pollen. Experimental enhancements carbon dioxide (CO) have demonstrated pollen amount...

Ambient air quality monitoring is a governmental duty that widely carried out in order to detect non-biological ("chemical") components ambient air, such as particles of < 10 µm (PM10, PM2.5), ozone, sulphur dioxide, and nitrogen oxides. These networks are publicly funded data open the public. The situation for biological have detrimental effects on health, case pollen fungal spores, however very different. Most spore not freely available. information regarding which particle being...

Significance Coexposure to airborne pollen enhances susceptibility respiratory viral infections, regardless of the allergy status. We hypothesized this could be also true for SARS-CoV-2 infections. To investigate this, we tested relationships between infection rates and concentrations, along with humidity, temperature, population density, lockdown effects. Our unique dataset derives from 130 sites in 31 countries across five continents. found that pollen, sometimes synergy humidity...

Abstract. This paper presents the first ensemble modelling experiment in relation to birch pollen Europe. The seven-model European of MACC-ENS, tested trial simulations over flowering season 2010, was run through 2013. have been compared with observations 11 countries, all members Aeroallergen Network, for both individual models and mean median. It is shown that successfully reproduced timing very late 2013, generally within a couple days from observed start season. end predicted later than...

Abstract Pollen monitoring has traditionally been carried out using manual methods first developed in the early 1950s. Although this technique recently standardised, it suffers from several drawbacks, notably data usually only being available with a delay of 3–9 days and delivered at daily resolution. Several automatic instruments have come on to market over past few years, more new devices also under development. This paper provides comprehensive overview all developing instruments, how...
