dc.description.abstractAerobiology studies the biological particles in the air that affect human health, especially plant pollen that causes allergies. The purpose of this study is to describe and examine the pollen seasons of the following plants: plantain (Plantago sp.), mugwort (Artemisia sp.), alder (Alnus sp.), birch (Betula sp.), grasses (Poaceae sp.), and hazel (Corylus sp.) during the period 1996‒2021. The results show that each species experiences unique pollen seasons that are influenced by weather patterns. By comprehending these patterns, pollen thresholds essential for controlling pollen allergies and reducing negative health effects can be established.en
dc.description.abstractAerobiologia bada cząstki biologiczne w powietrzu, które wpływają na zdrowie człowieka, w szczególności pyłki roślin wywołujące alergie. Celem tego badania jest opisanie i zbadanie sezonów pyłkowych następujących roślin: babka lancetowata (Plantago sp.), bylica pospolita (Artemisia sp.), olcha (Alnus sp.), brzoza (Betula sp.), trawy (Poaceae sp.) oraz leszczyna (Corylus sp.) w okresie 1996‒2021. Wyniki pokazują, że każda z tych roślin ma unikalne sezony pyłkowe, które są zależne od warunków pogodowych. Zrozumienie tych wzorców umożliwia ustalenie progów pyłkowych niezbędnych do kontrolowania alergii pyłkowych i ograniczenia negatywnych skutków zdrowotnych.pl
