#' Pollen data of Munich (2010_2015)
#'
#' A dataset containing information of daily concentrations of pollen in the atmosphere of Munich during the years 2010_2015. Pollen types included: \emph{"Alnus"}, \emph{"Betula"}, \emph{"Taxus"}, \emph{"Fraxinus"}, \emph{"Poaceae"}, \emph{"Quercus"}, \emph{"Ulmus"} and \emph{"Urtica"}.
#' @format Time series of daily pollen concentrations expressed as pollen grains / m3 of air.
#' @details Data were obtained at Munich (Zentrum Allergie und Umwelt, ZAUM) using a Hirst_type volumetric pollen trap (Hirst, 1952) following the standard methodology (VDI4252_4_2016). Some gaps have been added to test some functions of the package (e.g. \code{\link{quality_control}}, \code{\link{interpollen}}).
#' @details The data were obtained by the research team of Prof. Jeroen Buters (Christine Weil & Ingrid Weichenmeier). We specially acknowledge this team and the Zentrum Allergie und Umwelt (ZAUM, directed by Prof. Carsten B. Schmidt_Weber) for their support.
