Jerry also presented a couple of posters at World Aerobiology! This poster describes our work in Saclay, France. The WIBS 4+ real-time sensor was used for a sampling campaign to observe performance of its additional D, E, and DE particle channels. Great work again! 🇫🇷🔬🇱🇹🍃🇮🇪 – at Vilnius, Lithuania

Why your hay fever is going to get worse: Pollen release is heavily dependent on weather patterns and some worrying trends have started to appear thanks to climate change, writes @Emma__Markey @DCU rte.ie/brainstorm/2024/0508/…

Had a lot of fun deciphering the IR spectra on this one! If you want to delve deeper into the compositional changes between pollen before and after it is released, or between pollen collected from different pollution gradients then give it a read! 🤧 sciencedirect.com/science/ar…

Today marked the end of an era! Forever grateful for the opportunities and support given to me by my supervisor @DOC_at_DCU and for the endless entertainment (and friendship) supplied by @JerryClancy10! Thank you both! And I promise never to be sappy again...

Real-Time Pollen Monitoring in Dublin Congrats to @gemma_davis5 for presenting the poster. A great collaboration with @DCU and @MetEireann! #pollen #Environ2024 #detectwahatsintheair
We are immensely proud of @gemma_davis5 and her poster made for #Environ2024. Believe it or not, it's her first time presenting a poster! She showed off the work she's done so far in her first year, comparing Hirst sampling with the @swisens Poleno Jupiter. Congrats Gemma!

We meet our European colleagues for the final time as part of our @COSTprogramme ADOPT project. @JerryClancy10 reports that the only thing that could possibly distract from our hard work is this scenery! Thank you @fondazionemach @VisitTrentino for providing such a setting! – at Trentino-South Tyrol, Italy
