Abstrakt: This article discusses the use of advanced sensors in pollen research. The authors analyzed hourly pollen count concentrations using four APS units in Atlanta from February to May in 2020 and 2021. They observed distinct diurnal patterns in pollen counts, with the lowest counts in the early morning hours and a rapid increase peaking around 2 PM. The study also highlighted the importance of meteorological factors, such as temperature, daylight hours, and wind, in the production and dispersion of pollen. The authors suggest that their findings can help individuals with allergies schedule outdoor activities in the mornings during pollen seasons to minimize exposure. [Extracted from the article]
