Young ecologists from the National Children's Technopark visited Belhydromet

On January 21, students specialising in "Engineering Ecology" from the National Children's Technopark visited Belhydromet. The excursion became a fascinating journey into the world of meteorology and radiation safety.

The first stop was the radiation monitoring service, where Alla Shaybak, head of the Operational Data Department for Radiation Monitoring and Emergency Situations, immersed the children in the intricacies of radiation monitoring in Belarus. The pupils learned about modern methods and technologies used to control the radiation situation.

Then the young environmentalists went to the meteorological forecasting service. Matvey Chatyrka, a leading weather engineer, shared the secrets of making weather forecasts, explaining the work of synoptic meteorologists and the use of modern models and data.

The final stage was a meeting with meteorological engineers Anna Nedobega and Alexander Savitsky. The specialists provided a detailed account of the wide range of activities undertaken by Belhydromet, the significance of meteorologists' work for various economic sectors and society, as well as the collection, processing, and storage of climate data.

The excursion to Belgidromet became an educational event for young environmentalists, which demonstrated the close relationship between the theoretical knowledge acquired within the walls of the National Children's Technopark and their practical application in real professional activities. This served as tangible confirmation of the importance of their chosen field of study and its promising role in addressing current environmental challenges.
