Abstract
This note provides a generic method for handling falsely identified particles (false positive detections) in automatic pollen monitoring systems. The benefits of the method are illustrated using data from two different automatic pollen monitoring devices (Swisens Poleno and Plair Rapid-E) in comparison to reference Hirst-type pollen measurements. Neither climatological nor phenological information are introduced to filter out false positive detections: the method is based only on the measurements.
期刊介绍:
Associated with the International Association for Aerobiology, Aerobiologia is an international medium for original research and review articles in the interdisciplinary fields of aerobiology and interaction of human, plant and animal systems on the biosphere. Coverage includes bioaerosols, transport mechanisms, biometeorology, climatology, air-sea interaction, land-surface/atmosphere interaction, biological pollution, biological input to global change, microbiology, aeromycology, aeropalynology, arthropod dispersal and environmental policy. Emphasis is placed on respiratory allergology, plant pathology, pest management, biological weathering and biodeterioration, indoor air quality, air-conditioning technology, industrial aerobiology and more.
Aerobiologia serves aerobiologists, and other professionals in medicine, public health, industrial and environmental hygiene, biological sciences, agriculture, atmospheric physics, botany, environmental science and cultural heritage.
