Met Office and University of Exeter joint workshop on pollen

Climate change is very likely to result in changes to pollen. This could mean changes in the overall amount, in the species involved, and in turn in the seasonal appearance of respiratory symptoms. We know that the impacts on health are considerable, but we dont know how best to monitor the cause, model the response, and plan for the future. What are current immunological trends? How can we combine that knowledge with our meteorology? What is the relationship with air quality? How can we improve monitoring? How can we assess the demand for health care provision? Full details
