Upon invitation by the Finish Meteorological Institute (FMI), Ambassador Damir Kušen visited the Finish Arctic Research Centre and radar systems and satellite and measuring stations in the area of the Northern Lapland.
The Director General of FMI, dr. Petteri Taalas, invited the Ambassadors of the USA, Canada, Great Britain and Croatia on a two day professional visit during which they have, in addition to presenting their national meteorological systems and research priorities, proposed in their joint discussion possible forms of future cooperation in the area of global climate changes. In addition to former excellent cooperation between Croatia and Finland in the area of meteorology, Croatia is, because of its big regional climate differences, a very important scientific area even for the monitoring of effects of climate change.
The visit included presentations of Finish research projects, technological innovations and models for interconnecting the Meteorological institute with a series of institutions related to the country’s national security.
