Impact of extreme weather events on the occurrence of infectious diseases in Belgium from 2011 to 2021.
Abstract: The role of meteorological factors, such as rainfall or temperature, as key players in the transmission and survival of infectious agents is poorly understood. The aim of this study was to compare ...
What drives the long-term changes in airborne birch and grass pollen levels in Belgium?
time, primarily driven by a decreasing trend in grass pollen sources, which outweighed the impact of changing meteorology by a factor of ~10. — When considering only meteorology, a significant increase ...
First European pollen reanalysis for allergenic trees
in Europe has been growing during the last several decades. Climate change is directly affecting the main factors driving the airborne pollen levels released by anemophilous plants. A retrospective ...
Modelling grass pollen load in temperate and Mediterranean European areas based on source spatial distribution
the major airborne pollen contribution of grasses at a large spatial scale. Our findings are the basis for comprehensively study the factors involved in the long-term pollen trends of grasses by ...
Development, Validation and Application of a Targeted LC-MS Method for Quantification of Microcystins and Nodularin: Towards a Better Characterization of Drinking Water
meteorological factors and their prediction is still under study [9,10,11,12]. The presence of these blooms can have a detrimental effect on the water quality by producing compounds that lead to foul tastes and ...
