Abstract

The Ligurian climate has been mapped for hydrological and tourist purposes. Isohyet and isotherm maps as well as ombrothermic diagrams show a great abundance of water characterizing the Ligurian environment. Winter and summer tourist maps, produced by running a global polynomial interpolation, highlight areas where climate allows snow tourism, coastal sports, bathing, relaxation and cultural tourism. A synthesis tourist susceptibility map shows many areas, often scarcely developed, where climate conditions are potentially suitable for the development of tourist activity.
