The availability of reliable hourly time series is essential for investigating the link between precipitation and debris flow events. However, before 1990s data from weather stations are generally only available at daily resolution.A methodology proposed to reconstruct 1940s by combining ERA5 reanalysis — which provide information with cumulative values measured in situ stations. goal complete capable capturing intense events that may trigger flows, as required DECC (2023) project...
Abstract Rock coasts and shore platforms are conspicuous landforms along the Mediterranean Black Sea (MBS) coasts. These have been fashioned by changes in sea level because of vertical movements land variations eustatic isostatic sea-level. For this reason, Quaternary evolution MBS has extensively studied, even starting from geomorphological markers, while very few researches addressed processes related to their origin evolution. Despite most coast being rocky, studies about rocky almost...
Debris flows represent one of the most prevalent and impactful natural hazards in mountainous areas, posing significant risks to both human life infrastructure. Alpe di Succiso (2017 m a.s.l.) located Northern Apennines, Italy, is an area where numerous occurrences debris have been identified this encompassed by a National Park, thus densely traversed touristic routes infrastructures. Understanding spatial temporal patterns these critical for assessing hazard managing associated safety...
Debris flows are among the most common natural hazards in mountainous regions, with potential to severely impact human lives and infrastructure. In vicinity of Alpe di Succiso Mountain (Northern Apennines, Italy), several debris have been documented, impacting trees upper portion forest. As precipitation events can become more intense relation climate change, assessing spatial distribution through time these is essential for modeling their occurrence effective hazard assessment.In context...
Abstract The present work provides new insights on some factors controlling the groundwater flow in low‐permeability media affected by deep Apennine landslide, involving several million cubic meters of soil and rock. Rainfall circulation are among major triggers landslides. However, if first factor is well studied, only few research deal with hydrogeological processes landslide. Thus, this study, combined hydrogeological, geochemical isotopic investigation were performed order to: (1)...
Abstract In the Schiantala Valley of Maritime Alps, relationship between a till-like body and contiguous rock glacier has been analyzed using geomorphologic, geoelectric ice-petrographic methodologies. DC resistivity tomographies undertaken in till show presence buried massive ice ice-rich sediments, respectively. Ice samples from outcrop spherical gas inclusions equidimensional crystals that are randomly orientated, confirming typical petrographic characteristics sedimentary ice. The...
Abstract The main aim of this study is the experimental analysis hydrogeological behaviour Mt. Prinzera ultramafic massif in northern Apennines, Italy. analysed multidisciplinary database has been acquired through (a) geologic and structural survey; (b) geomorphologic (c) monitoring; (d) physico‐chemical analyses; (e) isotopic analyses. medium made several lithological units, tectonically overlapped. Between them, a low‐permeability, discontinuous unit identified. This behaves as an aquitard...
This special issue presents contributions about the methodologies and tools for representing mapping geomorphological hazards, with a focus upon hazard risk classification lan...
A few hydrogeological studies have been carried out worldwide in peridotite aquifer systems, despite their wide distribution. The ophiolites are one of the main groundwater reservoir within northern Apennines (Italy). This paper suggests graphical solution to set map heterogeneous, multi-layered ophiolitic aquifers mapped on large scale (1:1600). site investigation area is an ophiolite outcrop External Ligurian Apennines: Mountain Prinzera rock complex (44°38′30″N, 10°5′E; Parma Province,...
This paper presents a geomorphologic map of the Mt. Prinzera ultramafic rock complex (Parma Province, Emilia-Romagna Region, Italy) mapped at large scale (1:2500). The is first contribution to detailed knowledge area within framework multidisciplinary approach used analyse as hard aquifer case study. mapping was carried out by field survey and aerial photograph analysis. All surface processes landforms were considered, with particular attention structural features. linear morphologic...
Carbonate aquifers are the primary source of freshwater in Cuba. Unfortunately, coastal groundwater is often contaminated by seawater intrusion. The main aim present study was to test efficacy an experimental modelling approach, ranging from hydrogeology/geomorphology microbiology, better characterise both hydraulic features and behaviour a carbonate aquifer acquire useful information prevent salinization. interdisciplinary approach effective tool order understand (i) role played some fault...
Based on a 19th century scientific report, recent geological survey has highlighted the presence of complex, mostly Aeolian deposit along coast Liguria (Laigueglia, Savona Province, NW Italy). This finding was recognized to be relevant palaeoclimatic marker, being northernmost aeolianite outcrop ever reported from Mediterranean Basin. The investigated is spread steep sea-facing slope 2-3 m up almost 60 a.s.l.; it strongly reworked due urbanization area. Its stratigraphic features were thanks...
Remodeling of rocky coasts and erosion rates have been widely studied in past years, but not all the involved processes acting over rocks surface quantitatively evaluated yet. The first goal this paper is to revise different methodologies employed quantification effect biotic agents on exposed coastal morphologic agents, comparing their efficiency. Secondly, we focus geological methods assess quantify bio-remodeling, presenting some case studies an area Mediterranean Sea which methods,...
