Atmospheric and oceanic parameters observatory of Geophysics Institute of Tehran University was officially put into operation with the presence of the President of Tehran University.
According to RCO News Agency, According to the public relations of Tehran University, in the official opening ceremony of the Atmospheric and Oceanic Parameters Observatory of the Institute of Geophysics of Tehran University, which was held in the presence of the officials and faculty members of the Institute of Geophysics, Dr. Mohammad Hossein Omid, the president of Tehran University, thanked the people involved in setting up this observatory and called the Institute of Geophysics one of the leading centers at the national level.
Major country crises, caused by false or intentionally false information
Pointing to the water crisis as an example of the consequences of “false information”, Dr. Omid stated that the main solution to the country’s problems is to make available correct and scientific data through centers like this observatory and said: “Many of today’s crises in the country are caused by false information.”
Pointing to the importance of “data” in important decisions at the national level, the president of Tehran University said: “The current water crisis in the country is caused by either the lack of correct information or the deliberate incorrect information that was given to the authorities in the past, and the decisions in this area were also based on this information, and the situation we are witnessing today is the result of the same incorrect information or deliberately incorrect information.”
The president of the University of Tehran stated that solving the problem of the water crisis is now left to the university and added: The faculty members of the University of Tehran had warned about the incorrectness of the water resources statistics more than 20 years ago, but by transferring other incorrect statistics to the decision makers, the water resources were overloaded for years and today we are witnessing a critical situation in most parts of the country.
Observatories and academic centers are the sharp eyes of decision makers
Emphasizing that the establishment of such observatories narrows the field for those who cause problems for the country with false information, Dr. Omid said: the university should take the lead in providing advice and not wait for the request of executive bodies.
He clarified: We all have to believe that we have serious problems in the country and the only way to solve these problems is through universities and by transferring correct and correct information to the authorities, to make decisions based on facts.
In the end, the President of Tehran University, referring to the government’s acceptance of the views of academics to solve the country’s problems, mentioned the consultation in the field of “expanding the use of solar panels” as one of the issues in which the Institute of Geophysics can provide systematic scientific advice to the government.
The Observatory of Atmospheric and Oceanic Parameters of the Institute of Geophysics of Tehran University has been established with the aim of strengthening the research infrastructure and providing the scientific needs of the country in the atmospheric and oceanic fields. All the systems of this observatory have been designed, launched and localized by the experts of Geophysics Institute. The data of this center will be widely used for researchers, students, and also in various fields of application, including agriculture, transportation, crisis management, oil and gas, and tourism.
