In this study we analyzed daily pollen concentrations of Alnus spp. and Betula spp. from Worcester, UK and Wrocław, Poland. We analyzed seasonality, annual pollen index and footprint areas for the observed pollen concentrations by using the trajectory model hybrid single particle Lagrangian integrated trajectory (HYSPLIT). We examined 10 years of data during the period 2005–2014 and found substantial differences in the seasonality, pollen indices and footprint areas. For both genera, concentrations in Wrocław are in general much higher, the seasons are shorter and therefore more intense than in Worcester. The reasons appear to be related to the differences in overall climate between the two sites and more abundant sources in Poland than in England. The footprint areas suggest that the source of the pollen grains are mainly local trees but appear to be augmented by remote sources, in particular for Betula spp. but only to a small degree for Alnus spp. For Betula spp., both sites appear to get contributions from areas in Germany, the Netherlands and Belgium, while known Betula spp. rich regions in Russia, Belarus and Scandinavia had a very limited impact on the pollen concentrations in Worcester and Wrocław. Substantial and systematic variations in pollen indices are seen for Betula spp. in Wrocław with high values every second year while a similar pattern is not observed for Worcester. This pattern was not reproduced for Alnus spp.

Praca dotyczy dobowych stężeń pyłku olszy (Alnus spp.) oraz brzozy (Betula spp.) notowanych w Worcester (Wielka Brytania) oraz we Wrocławiu (Polska). Przeanalizowano sezonowość, indeks pyłkowy oraz obszary źródłowe pyłku przy zastosowaniu modelu HYSPLIT (hybrid single particle Lagrangian integrated trajectory model). W badaniu uwzględniono dane pomiarowe z okres 10 lat (2005–2014). Zaobserwowano istotne różnice w sezonowości, indeksie pyłkowym oraz obszarach źródłowych dla dwóch analizowanych lokalizacji. Zarówno dla olszy, jak i dla brzozy, stężenia pyłku są na ogół znacznie wyższe i sezon pyłkowy jest krótszy we Wrocławiu, stąd też jest on bardziej intensywny, niż w Worcester. Wynika to najprawdopodobniej z różnic w warunkach klimatycznych pomiędzy dwoma stacjami i z większej liczby lokalnych źródeł pyłku w Polsce niż w Anglii. Obliczenia przeprowadzone z modelem HYSPLIT wskazują, że źródłem ziaren pyłku są głównie drzewa lokalne, ale zaznacza się również rola transportu odległego, ale w szczególności w przypadku pyłku brzozy, a tylko w niewielkim stopniu w przypadku olszy. W przypadku brzozy, na stężenie pyłku notowanego w obu stacjach istotnie wpływa pyłek pochodzący z obszaru Niemiec, Holandii i Belgii, podczas gdy powszechnie znane obszary źródłowe w Rosji, Białorusi i Skandynawii mają bardzo ograniczony wpływ na stężenie pyłku w Worcester i we Wrocławiu. Ponadto zaobserwowano wyraźne, systematyczne zróżnicowanie indeksu pyłkowego brzozy we Wrocławiu, z wysokimi wartościami występującymi co drugi rok. Podobna zależność nie jest obserwowana dla Worcester. Wyraźnych zróżnicowań indeksu pyłkowego pomiędzy latami nie notowano dla olszy w żadnej z lokalizacji.
