Samples which came from Gölhisar, Bahçelievler and Karayolları in Kırşehir have been analyzed at two different stations by using the Durham-gravimetric method?s application. The amount of the pollen grains in Kırşehir atmosphere per certain area has been measured as cm2 units with respect to the specified area within weekly and monthly periods by the help of the microscope slides placed in the Durham instrument and the obtained results are shown through graphics. A total 24 taxa of 12 trees and scrubs, and of 12 herbaceous plant, have been determined in the research area. The increase in the temperature,wind speed and relative humidity rates have affected the amount of pollens positively and also effected the precipitation negatively. The results are compared with the meteorological factors. The monthly pollen calender is prepared.
