Description
-
In the 18th century, the University of Bologna joined the European network of meteorological observations. Daily records of temperature, pressure, winds and meteors were recorded from 1782 to 1792, and then continued without interruption from 1813 to the late 20th century. It is therefore possible to document the climate in Bologna for more than two hundred years and assess the impact of the changes that have taken place over this period. This rain gauge is one of the weather station instruments held by the University Museum.
