Abstract

The study compares the alder pollen seasons in Zielona Gora, Poznan, Wroclaw, Opole, Sosnowiec, Cracow, Piotrkow Trybunalski, and Lublin in 2017. The investigations were conducted using the volumetric method. The alder pollen season began between 22nd and 27th February. Maximum daily pollen concentrations were noted on the same date (4–5th March) in all the cities. The greatest risk of allergies caused by the presence of airborne alder pollen was observed in Zielona Gora, Opole, and Piotrkow Trybunalski.
