More than allergy
Aerobiology connects botany, mycology, meteorology, ecology, agronomy, climatology, environmental health and heritage conservation. Pollen allergy is important, but it does not define the entire field.

Aerobiology studies biological particles in the air—their sources, release, transport, deposition and effects—including pollen, fungal spores, bacteria, biological fragments and other bioaerosols.

Measure, identify, model
Networks combine samplers, expert or automated identification, quality control and atmospheric models. Every method answers a different question and carries its own uncertainty.
Concentration is not risk
An atmospheric value describes a particle amount. Biological effects depend on taxon, context, exposure and susceptibility; PollenTotal does not diagnose or recommend treatment.
