The analysis of hazel pollen count in selected Polish cities in 2008
Main Article Content
Abstract
Abstract: This paper presents the course of hazel pollination season in selected cities of Poland in 2008. The measurements were performed in Wrocław, Kraków, Lublin, Warszawa, Sosnowiec, Szczecin, Olsztyn and Bydgoszcz. Volumetric method with the use of Volumetric Spore Trap (Burkard, Lanzoni) was implemented. Pollen season was defined as the period in which 95% of the total annual catch occurred. Pollen season of hazel in 2008 started about 10 days later in comparison to 2007. The season started first in Wrocław and Szczecin (21, 22 January). The highest 24-hour average pollen count was recorded in Sosnowiec on 23 February (115 hazel pollen grains/1m3).
