Summary
This contribution presents a procedure for estimating the distribution of pollen sources and mapping their activity. Particular reference is made to the example of mapping the pollen emissions ofCastanea sativa, in the Reno valley near Bologna (Italy), achieved with numerical techniques and starting from basic maps (vegetation, topographic and pedologic), phenological observations and pollen production data.
