Atmospheric Concentrations Of Cladosporium Link And Alternaria Nées Spores In Ankara And The Effects Of Meteorological Factors, Nazmi̇ye Şakiyan, Özden İnceoğlu

Turkish Journal of Botany

Cladosporium Link and Alternaria Nées known as the most allergenic spores, were first collected by means of a Burkard seven-day recording volumetric trap from the Ankara atmosphere from January 1990 to January 1991. The daily, monthly and annual variations in spores/m^3 of Cladosporium and Alternaria were recorded. The effects of some climatological factors such as rainfall, temperature, relative humidity and wind speed on variations in spore concentrations have been investigated.
