Artificial land use trends could represent an effective indicator of the settlement process quality and also provide information about efficacy protection exploitation policies in natural rural areas. This work discusses analytic procedure for time series investigation urban development at regional scale to verify nexus between growth demographic connected with phenomenon take. In Italy, since 1950, take has been a consequence several factors: urbanization, realization transport...
Il crescente interesse per le politiche del settore energetico ha indotto, sul territorio italiano, una diffusa installazione di impianti la produzione energia. Cio e avvenuto all’interno un sistema ghost planning che opera al fuori delle regole della pianificazione urbana. Attraverso l’indice Sprinkling si vuole valutare l’impatto paesaggistico dovuto alle installazioni infrastrutture energetiche (impianti l’estrazione idrocarburi l’energia rinnovabile) in Basilicata.
Fire effects consist not only in direct damage to the vegetation but also modification of both chemical and physical soil properties. can affect alteration properties different ways depending on fire severity type. The most important consequences concern changes responsiveness water action subsequent increase sediment transport erosion. Post loss first year by several orders magnitude compared pre-fire In this study a distributed model based Revised Universal Soil Loss Equation (RUSLE) is...
Renewable Energy Sources (RES) are part of the solution to tackle global problems climate change and carbon emissions. Programs policies at different levels continuing promote new RES farms, posing a relevant challenge regional planners administrators: how manage landscape transformation territorial fragmentation find really effective sustainable arrangement for these kinds technologies? Most effects induced by (land-use change, land take, diminishing aesthetic values, loss habitat quality),...
The Natura 2000 network was established as a tool to preserve the biological diversity of European territory with particular regard vulnerable habitats and species. According recent studies, relevant percentage sites are expected be lost by end this century there is widespread evidence that biodiversity conservation policies not fully effective in relation management plans protected areas. This paper addresses issue analyzing specific case which problem integration between different...
A growing demand at several levels of territorial government concerns the need for tools to support policy-making oriented towards sustainable planning. That Ecosystem Services (ES) represents a well-structured and robust methodological framework developing assess environmental performances transformations linked different development needs. The paper fits into this frame by proposing an analytical based on ES multifunctionality approach, i.e., joint provision multiple ES, applying it...
Nowadays, land-use planning systems show structural weakness from an informative perspective, depending on the capacity to develop rapidly and accurately territorial knowledge as a decision support system (DSS). The effectively manage transformations in sustainability perspective is inadequate, especially under pressure of rapid changes involving social, environmental, economic dimensions. We recognize Ecosystem Services (ES) approach robust framework contribute renewal by introducing...
Low carbon transition represents one of the main challenges engaging territorial governments in a multiscale structure planning and actions. The thematic focus on renewable energies sources (RES) development prevailed an integrated approach to plan such relevant process more systemic view based on multiple values estimation assessment
Multidimensional integrated indicators have become extremely popular for ranking territorial units and comparing them in terms of performance, development quality life. The concept sustainability is not exempt from this global phenomenon. Recognizing the ecosystem services (ES) framework as a tool to drive urban landscape regeneration toward sustainability, we propose based on ES multifunctionality. Adopting approach allows pursuing different goals several time frames: enhance policy–science...
Climate change mitigation and adaptation along with air pollution are key challenges that require a comprehensive planning approach able to promote win-win strategies avoid transferring environmental pressures from one sector another. The joint is widely advocated at the policy level while scientific research investigates role of co-benefits in processes. A methodological framework was developed twofold aim (i) assessing current integration degree between regional Air Quality Plans (ii)...
