Özet

Atmospheric pollen was collected with a Burkard spore trap in Ankara, Turkey from January 1993 to January 1994. The sum of the annual totals of the daily concentration of pollen, belonging to 44 taxa, was 57,735. A relatively high pollen concentration was recorded in June which could be caused by higher wind speed and lower rainfall. Pinaceae, Cupressaceae/Taxaceae, Gramineae, Platanus, Populus, Moraceae, Chenopodiaceae/Amaranthaceae, Acer, Quercus, Betula, Salix, Rumex and Plantago are found to be the dominant pollen types in the atmosphere in Ankara.
