Analysis of the Rockfall Phenomena Contributing to the Evolution of a Pocket Beach Area Using Traditional and Remotely Acquired Data (Lo Zingaro Natu…
2023
The coastal domain of central western Sicily is characterized by the presence of rocky coasts, which mainly consist of pocket beaches situated between bedrock headlands that constitute ecological niches of great touristic and economic value. In this peculiar morphodynamic system, the sedimentary contributions are mainly derived from the rockfall that affects the back of nearby cliffs or the sediment supply of small streams that flow into it. In this study, we investigated the geomorphological processes and related landforms that contribute to the evolution of a pocket beach area located in a coastal sector of NW Sicily Island. The cliffs in this are affected by several rockfalls, and deposi…
Evaporite karst in Italy: A review
2017
none 16 si Although outcropping rarely in Italy, evaporite (gypsum and anhydrite) karst has been described in detail since the early 20th century. Gypsum caves are now known from almost all Italian regions, but are mainly localised along the northern border of the Apennine chain (Emilia Romagna and Marche), Calabria, and Sicily, where the major outcrops occur. Recently, important caves have also been discovered in the underground gypsum mines in Piedmont. During the late 80s and 90s several multidisciplinary studies were carried out in many gypsum areas, resulting in a comprehensive overview, promoting further research in these special karst regions. More recent and detailed studies focused…

Avatar: un'altra terra o la terra degli altri?
2011
All’interno delle molteplici riflessioni sviluppatesi attorno al «fenomeno Avatar», ci è sembrato particolarmente interessante riflettere sulla rappresentazione del rapporto tra «Società» e «Natura» ponendoci le seguenti domande: Avatar propone una nuova visione di questo rapporto o, al contrario, utilizza paradigmi narrativi già consolidati? Come viene descritto l’Altro e il suo rapporto con la Natura? Il seguente contributo, che raccoglie le analisi autonome degli autori, si propone di elaborare alcune riflessioni intorno a tali questioni attraverso due percorsi: il primo discutendo la costruzione e la rappresentazione del conflitto ambientale, mentre il secondo affrontando le narrazioni …
Proposte metodologiche per la valutazione del potenziale di geoscambio: il Progetto VIGOR
2012
In the framework of VIGOR Project, a national project coordinated by the Institute of Geosciences and Earth Resources (CNR-IGG) and sponsored by the Ministry of Economic Development (MiSE), dedicated to the evaluation of geothermal potential in the regions of the Convergence Objective in Italy (Puglia, Calabria, Campania and Sicily), is expected to evaluate the ability of the territory to heat exchange with the ground for air conditioning of buildings. To identify the conditions for the development of low enthalpy geothermal systems collected and organized on a regional scale geological and stratigraphic data useful for the preparation of a specific thematic mapping, able to represent in a …
