Pollen and spore forecasting has become an important aim in aerobiology. The main goal is to provide accurate information on biological particles in the air to sensitive users in order to help them optimize their treatment process. Many statistical methods of data analysis are based on the assumptions of linearity and normality that often cannot be fulfilled. The advanced statistical methods can be applied to the problems that cannot be solved in any other effective way, and are suited to predicting the concentration of airborne pollen or spores in relation to weather conditions. The purpose of the study was to review some advanced statistical methods that can be used in aerobiological studies.

Ziarna pyłku i zarodniki grzybów należące do aeroplanktonu stanowią ważny przedmiot badań aerobiologicznych. Głównym celem takich badań jest dostarczenie dokładnych informacji na temat zawartości biologicznych cząsteczek w powietrzu aby pomóc zoptymalizować proces leczenia alergii i astmy u osób wrażliwych. Wiele metod statystycznej analizy danych opartych jest na założeniach liniowości i normalności, często założenia te nie mogą być spełnione. Zaawansowane metody statystyczne mogą być stosowane wtedy, kiedy inne metody nie mogą być użyte. Dodatkowo niektóre z nich konstruują modele prognostyczne, które przewidują skuteczne stężenie w powietrzu pyłku lub zarodników w zależności od warunków atmosferycznych. Celem badania było dokonanie przeglądu zaawansowanych statystycznych metod, które mogą być stosowane w badaniach aerobiologicznych.
