Airborne #pollen may be a major cause of asthma-related ED visits during peak pollen season, but the risk varies by location and plant composition, according to a study published in @ELSenviron by @pollenscientist. Read more here ⬇️https://t.co/PXQG6sw8Cp

Asthma emergencies spike when allergenic pollen blooms, says a new CALS-led study from prof. Daniel Katz (@pollenscientist) highlighting the need for science-based pollen forecasts. https://t.co/4A4ufwzazw

My latest research is out to the scientific community!

Trait-related functional changes in understory forest community after invasion are driven by complementarity rather than displacement https://t.co/q4LkXHkpod

Thanks to Allasandra "Ally" Valdez for having me on for an episode of her podcast, The Happy Botanist! We chat about urban trees, pollen, and gin. Check out the interview here:

A new version of i-Tree will also incorporate these pollen production equations so you can easily calculate this for your city too! https://t.co/SkbOyXVr1g

[Dr. Daniel Katz @pollenscientist]

Ever wondered how tree planting decisions affect airborne pollen concentrations? Or how pollen production will change as trees grow and die? Check out our new paper answering these questions in NYC

[David L. Miller @DavidLauchlin]

Our new article is out in @NatureComms! Cool wet places are routinely more productive during spring droughts; flux towers & remote sensing products show this but models don't. Thank you to my amazing coauthors @SeWolf_ETH, @jawsh, @BenZaitchik, @GlobalEcolUNH, & @trevorkeenan!

A nice little press release on pollen modeling in Detroit!

How 30,000 Detroit trees bloomed into a better way for researchers to predict airborne pollen https://t.co/jLpuSFS6QZ

[Theresa Crimmins @TheresaCrimmins]

Open flowers = pollen.
When we have good sampling, observations of trees in flower reported by #NaturesNotebook observers can serve as a useful proxy for airborne pollen, thereby supporting allergy and asthma management.

New postdoc position available on remote sensing, trees, and public health!
Join our interdisciplinary team working on how trees cool cities and reduce ED visits. Project is on tree ID with remote sensing including PlanetScope. DM me with your Q's!

@lachlantegart Thanks, Lachy! Hope all's going well with you!

[Dr. Daniel Katz @pollenscientist]

Check out our new paper!
We predict pollen across a city by:
-identifying individual trees with remote sensing
-estimating pollen production per tree
-modeling timing of flowering
This model predicts spatiotemporal variation in airborne pollen very well

[Dr. Daniel Katz @pollenscientist]

Individual tree-based approaches could create more granular and accurate models of airborne pollen in cities; these can help reduce exposures and allow people to better manage their allergy medications.
Research was done @umichsph with support from @NIEHS and @UM_MICHR
