Automatic detection of airborne pollen: an overview
traditionally been carried out using manual methods first developed in the early 1950s. Although this technique has been recently standardised, it suffers from several draw-backs, notably data usually only being ...
Mapping abundance distributions of allergenic tree species in urbanized landscapes: A nation-wide study for Belgium using forest inventory and citizen science data
not readily available. This research presents an approach to produce high-resolution abundance maps of allergenic tree species using existing forest inventories and opportunistic open-access citizen ...
Exposure to green space and pollen allergy symptom severity: A case-crossover study in Belgium
symptom severity scores and matched these to 404 control days. The data were analyzed using conditional logistic regression with a 1:1 case-crossover design. Results: Case days were associated with exposure ...
Association between local airborne tree pollen composition and surrounding land cover across different spatial scales in Northern Belgium
Non-metric multidimensional scaling was used to investigate environmental gradients that determine the pollen composition and amounts. Land cover types were identified across spatial scales ranging between 20 m and 5 km. The ...
Spatial and temporal variations in airborne pollen in Europe.
Europe and for monitoring its efficiency and cost-effectiveness. The goal of the present study is to provide a baseline for spatial and temporal variations in airborne pollen in Europe that can be used for ...
