Abstract

Information on pollen dispersion is useful for members of the general public with allergies.We measured the Japanese cedar and cypress pollen counts by two methods, a Durham sampler and a real-time pollen counter (KH-3000), in Kawachinagano City, located in the south-eastern part of Osaka.The results were as follows: There were close correlations between the findings of the Durham pollen counter and the KH-3000 in March and April of 2003.The airborne pollen observed with the KH-3000 did not correlate with the average temperature or average wind velocity of March and April.There was more airborne pollen dispersion when the wind blew from west-south west and north east.We concluded that local information about pollen dispersion is important for self-care.
