AutoPollen, a EUMETNET programme dedicated to developing a European network for the real-time detection of pollen and fungal spores, published a special issue in the journal Aerobiologia.
This issue provides a comprehensive overview of the programme’s achievements on topics such as forecast models integrating real-time pollen observations, bioaerosol detection and identification methods, and evaluation and standardization of these methods.
It serves as a valuable resource for experts aiming to establish or enhance automatic aerobiological monitoring networks and highlights the impact of real-time and high temporal resolution data for end-users in a range of sectors from public health, research, to agricultural and more.
