Area of Science:

  • Aerobiology
  • Palynology
  • Environmental Science

Background:

  • Airborne pollen monitoring is essential for understanding allergenic sources and atmospheric composition.
  • Bitlis, Turkey, lacked comprehensive aeropalynological data prior to this study.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To conduct a continuous aeropalynological survey in Bitlis from 2001-2002.
  • To identify and quantify airborne pollen types, differentiating between arboreal (AP) and non-arboreal (NAP) sources.
  • To determine the seasonal distribution of pollen grains.

Main Methods:

  • Gravimetric method using Durham apparatus for weekly pollen sampling.
  • Calculation of pollen grains per square centimeter.
  • Identification and classification of pollen taxa into AP and NAP categories.

Main Results:

  • A total of 3,323 pollen grains/cm² from 46 taxa were recorded over two years.
  • Non-arboreal plants (NAP) constituted the majority (59.28%) of pollen, followed by arboreal plants (AP) (39.39%).
  • Gramineae, Urticaceae, Juglans spp., Quercus spp., and Umbellifereae were among the most abundant pollen types. Peak pollen season occurred in May and June (58.38%).

Conclusions:

  • The study provides a baseline for airborne pollen levels in Bitlis, identifying significant contributors to the pollen load.
  • Findings are crucial for public health, particularly for individuals with pollen allergies in the region.
  • The dominance of NAP pollen suggests specific vegetation influences on Bitlis's atmospheric environment.
