Opportunities and Challenges in using machine learning to model pollen data
There are many types of pollen models simulating pollen emission and/or atmospheric transport of pollen to predict the amount of pollen at a given time at a given location. As pollen can be transported over larger areas, large-scale models that capture both local and transported pollen need to be developed. This requires large datasets. We need to…
