Weather Station

Motivation

 

It is precisely the existence of different measuring points that allows you to deepen your knowledge of the climate of a territory in its infinite facets. Those same factors that .. ultimately, influence the daily life of all the species that live in the environment with which they live together. The denser the network of measurement points, the more detailed the scale of the topoclimate and the microclimate can be.
In the context of the restoration, Molino Maufet also wanted to contribute from February 2018, by equipping itself with its own monitoring station.
