Abstract:
The aim of this study was to determine the main characteristics of the Poaceae pollen season in France (seasonal and daily quantities) in 2001, and to compare them to those of the previous years. The data came from seven volumetric Hirst traps, located in the cities of Amiens, Paris, Lyon, Nîmes, Bordeaux, Montluçon and Strasbourg. The study period range from the beginning of March to the end of August. The pollen quantities of 2001 were particularly high in three sites (Montluçon, Bordeaux et Lyon); they were higher than those of 2000 in Amiens and Strasbourg, but in those sites the peak of the whole series was situated in 1994; lastly the pollen quantities of 2001 were little different or lower than those of 2000 in Nîmes and Paris. This was probably not without effect on allergic people.
