Interactions among Cupressaceae pollen, air pollutants and meteorology in the urban and suburban areas of Beijing, China.

ABSTRACT: Atmospheric pollutants alter the physicochemical properties of pollen allergens, and raise a high risk of co-exposure to more aeroallergens in the allergic population. It is necessary to reveal the relationships between them and the impacts of meteorology on them both. Herein, synchronous data of aerobiology, pollution and meteorology at the same location are used to investigate the correlation between Cupressaceae pollen (major allergen in Norther China) and atmospheric pollutants, and their association with meteorological factors at different timescales in the urban and suburban areas of Beijing, China. In this research, the correlation between allergenic pollen, air pollutants and meteorological factors may display distinct patterns at daily and hourly timescales. Daily concentration of
