The Legacy of Solco W. Tromp 

The foundation of modern biometeorology can be traced back to the pioneering work of Solco Walle Tromp, a Dutch geophysicist and bioclimatologist. Tromp's extensive research laid the groundwork for the establishment of biometeorology as a scientific discipline. His vision encompassed the understanding of how atmospheric conditions, such as humidity, temperature, and air pressure, influence human health, animal behavior, and plant development.
