Purpose
This event aims to achieve several important objectives:
- Promote human biometeorology: We will explore the impact of thermal conditions, air pollution, pollen, adaptation to climate change, architecture, urbanistic solutions, and the impact of weather phenomena and thermal environment on productivity.
- Network with biometeorologists: Scientists from universities, research institutes, national meteorological and hydrological services (NHMSs), private companies, and specialized societies will connect and share insights.
- Collect users' needs and requirements: We want to understand what information and services are essential for our community.
- Effective communication: We'll discuss strategies for conveying biometeorological information to the public.
- Interdisciplinary involvement: We encourage participation from a broad range of interested scientists.
- Identify gaps and best practices: By sharing experiences, we can identify areas for improvement and highlight successful approaches.
- Climate change adaptation: We'll explore strategies and activities related to climate change adaptation.
