Variation of Deposition Time and Amount of Airborne pollens in Mt. Kwan-ak

관악산에서 공중화분의 비산시기와 비산량의 변화

The airborne pollens were studied by Durhan's pollen trap in Mt. Kwan-ak from March 1, 1984 to October 15, 1986. Most airborne pollens were found from late-March to late-September and few of them from early-November to late-February. Peak times of airborne pollens were found for one year as follows; First, from late-March to early-April, Second, middle-May, third, from late-August to middle-September. Peak day of airborne pollens of each species was related with cumulative temperature. The total amount of airborne pollen during one year had fluctuation in each year. Year by year, the amount of airborne pollens from tree was increaed, but airborne pollens of grasses was decreased. Among tree airborne pollens, the deposition rate of pinus pollen was steady, bur Quercus was relatively increased.
