In the aftermath of Italian unification, Senator Luigi Torelli (1810\u20131887), likely inspired by the promising operational results achieved by the Papal meteorological service led by astrophysicist Angelo Secchi, sought to give Italian meteorological activity a centralized institutional structure capable of ensuring a unified and coordinated approach. This led to the creation of a Meteorology Office, institutionally recognized as the original core of CREA\u2019s national meteorological networks. Its fundamental objectives included: the meteorological and climatic characterization of the entire Italian territory; the formulation of forecasts, especially in the approach of severe weather events; and the rigorous standardization of observation methodologies and measuring instruments.<br \/>\nThis seminar aims primarily to explore the historical and scientific aspects related to major technical standards for observation and to the operational characteristics of the most distinctive measuring instruments inherited by CREA.<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"an1\" draggable=\"false\" src=\"https:\/\/fonts.gstatic.com\/s\/e\/notoemoji\/16.0\/1f4e3\/32.png\" alt=\"\ud83d\udce3\" data-emoji=\"\ud83d\udce3\" aria-label=\"\ud83d\udce3\" \/><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"an1\" draggable=\"false\" src=\"https:\/\/fonts.gstatic.com\/s\/e\/notoemoji\/16.0\/26a0_fe0f\/32.png\" alt=\"\u26a0\ufe0f\" data-emoji=\"\u26a0\ufe0f\" aria-label=\"\u26a0\ufe0f\" \/>\u00a0The webinar is part of the training project\u00a0<i><b>\u201cTowards Green Horizons\u201d<\/b><\/i>, organized within the framework of the excellence project\u00a0\u00a0<span dir=\"auto\">\ud835\uddd7.\ud835\udddc.\ud835\udde9\ud835\uddf2\ud835\uddff.\ud835\udde6\ud835\uddfc<\/span><b>.<br \/>\n<\/b>The\u00a0<i>Order of Agronomists and Foresters of Viterbo<\/i>\u00a0will grant 0.25 Professional Training Credits (CFP) for each seminar; the\u00a0<i>Territorial College of Graduate Agricultural Experts of the Province of Rome\u00a0<\/i>will grant 2 CFP per seminar; the<i>\u00a0National College of Agrotechnicians<\/i>\u00a0will also grant 2 CFP per seminar.<br \/>\nThe training project counts toward the annual 40-hour training performance target outlined in the Directive of the Minister for Public Administration dated January 16, 2025.
