INTEGRATED HIGH-RESOLUTION STRATIGRAPHY OF THE LOWER OLIGOCENETUSA TUFFITE FORMATION IN THE CALABRO-LUCANO AREAAND SICILY (SOUTHERN ITALY)

open access: yesRivista Italiana di Paleontologia e Stratigrafia, 2002
Shale samples from the volcaniclastic turbidites ascribed to the Tusa Tuffite Formation (Tufiti di Tusa Auct.) cropping out at the Canale Candela section (Calabro-Lucano boundary, southern Italy) have yielded rich, diverse and well-preserved palynomorph ...

Pre‐industrial land‐use limits contemporary shrub encroachment in the French Alps

open access: yesEcography, EarlyView.
Shrub encroachment has become a global phenomenon in recent decades. While global warming in the Arctic is often cited as the primary cause, human‐managed mountain regions have experienced intense historical land‐use that may also play a considerable role.

Post Cretaceous/Paleogene boundary recovery of the deep marine ecosystem recorded by benthic foraminiferal morphogroups

open access: yesActa Palaeontologica Polonica
The uppermost 2 meters of the Maastrichtian Scaglia Rossa Fm. (Gubbio, Italy) record a notable change in the proportions of morphogroups of deep-water agglutinated foraminifera beginning about 1.4 m below the boundary, where we observe a gradual decrease

Spatiotemporal Evolution of Hydroclimatic Variables in the Brazilian Semi‐Arid Region Through the Aridity Index and Susceptibility to Desertification

open access: yesInternational Journal of Climatology, EarlyView.
Over the past 60 years, noticeable changes have been observed in the main hydroclimatological variables, driven by both natural and anthropogenic factors. In the context of climate change, such behaviour may adversely affect the state's economic activities, as well as increase the recurrence of extreme events in the region.

Distribution of the brown bear (Ursus arctos marsicanus) in the Central Apennines, Italy, 2005-2014 [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
Despite its critical conservation status, no formal estimate of the Apennine brown bear (Ursus arctos marsicanus) distribution has ever been attempted, nor a coordinated effort to compile and verify all recent occurrences has ever been ensured.

Winegrowers' Perceptions and Adoption of Sustainable Soil Management Practices and Technologies: A Case Study in Piedmont, Italy

open access: yesLand Degradation &Development, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Soil is crucial for human survival but is threatened by erosion and contamination. Farmers play a pivotal role in soil conservation, thus, understanding what influences their decisions is crucial. The IN‐GEST SOIL project aimed to mitigate soil erosion and improve soil and vine quality in Piedmont vineyards, NW Italy.

Uncertainty analysis for seismic hazard in Northern and Central Italy

open access: yesAnnals of Geophysics, 2005
In this study we examine uncertainty and parametric sensitivity of Peak Ground Acceleration (PGA) and 1-Hz Spectral Acceleration (1-Hz SA) in probabilistic seismic hazard maps (10% probability of exceedance in 50 years) of Northern and Central ...

Generalist‐pollinated Arabis alpina exhibits floral scent variation at multiple scales

open access: yesNordic Journal of Botany, EarlyView.
Plants that depend on animals for reproduction often use complex floral traits to attract pollinators. Floral scent is recognized as part of the pollinator attraction module and can be shaped by plant‐pollinator interactions. In recent decades, research has started to reveal the dynamic properties of floral scent, identifying patterns of spatial and ...
