How to make your own pollen trap

- A film made while on field work in Ghana in October 2013, by Open University researchers Adele Julier and Phil Jardine.
The film shows how to make a pollen trap for sampling airborne pollen (pollen rain). These traps can help us understand how fossil pollen records in lakes and bogs represent the local vegetation. For more information on how and where the traps were set up, please see the associated video diary: • Ghana Field Trip 2013 ...
This film is part of the NERC funded project '500,000 years of solar irradiance, climate and vegetation changes', based at the Open University, UK.
Editing and production by James Malley. Thanks to Dr Sam Moore (University of Oxford), Dr Stephen Adu-Bredu (Forestry Research Institute of Ghana), and all at FORIG for making the field trip a success.

Great to watch this useful video. I hope to get there. Many thanks
It would be nice to show us how it works!
"By a passing elephant... or whatever else you get in the forest" PhD Knowledge!
If you are looking for trapping pollen from bees...look elsewhere. This is about catching rain washing pollen out of the air.
where do you put the trap? and also how would you put it like would you stick it in to the dirt? ive got no clue you didnt explain
Hi, sorry I only just saw your comment! We attach them to wooden stakes, about 50cm off the forest floor (to prevent flooding) within surveyed vegetation plots, then leave them there for 1 year.
Bunkum
