Abstract:
The year 2003 was marked by some particular meterological situations (mild conditions at the end of winter and during spring) which had consequences on the quantity of pollen in the air during the year. These meteorological influences differ from one taxa to another and mostly from one season to another. These quantities very quite different in comparison with the previous years, in particular a notable increase of many winter and spring tree taxa and a decrease of herbaceous taxa, particularly those pollinating in summer.

Variation of Atmospheric Pressure
Assuming the air temperature is constant at a given altitude and that the ideal gas law of thermodynamics describes the atmosphere to a good approximation, one can find the variation of atmospheric pressure with height.
Let p(y) be the atmospheric pressure at...
