Transport organization and economic development of an European peripherical region: the case of Sicily [PDF]
Transport and communication networks are some of the most important factors which influence the socio-economic development, and particularly the tourist sector, of Sicily, a peripherical region by comparison with the European central areas.

The ability to perform a number of ecosystem functions is degraded by the inappropriate damming of agricultural floodplains (by levee construction) or by the continuous urban expansion, where flood protection is justified but at the cost of affecting the environmental stability of the wider landscape.

Nutrient recovery from digestates : techniques and end-products [PDF]
In nitrate vulnerable zones application of animal manure to land is limited. Digestate from anaerobic digestion plants competes with manure for nutrient disposal on arable land, which forms a serious hinder for the biogas sector to develop in these ...

Abstract Grande Comore, the westernmost island within the Madagascar Comoros Volcanic (MCV) chain, hosts two juxtaposed basaltic volcanoes, Karthala and La Grille, with contrasting lava geochemical signatures and eruption frequencies. Their formation and dynamics have been explained either by a mantle plume or, more recently, as part of a ...

Abstract La Soufrière de Guadeloupe volcano exhibits microseismic activity dominated by volcano‐tectonic repeaters, mainly occurring in swarms clustered in a sub‐vertical conduit beneath the Tarissan acid lake (TAS) at depths less than 800 m. Following the April 2018 earthquake (Mlv 4.1), which likely damaged the dome, swarms intensified and show ...

Soil Management Effects on Grapevine Water Uptake Depth in a Mediterranean Vineyard
Stable isotope evidence of vine water uptake depth under spontaneous cover crop and tillage. ABSTRACT In Mediterranean vineyards, soils are often managed with tillage or herbicides to limit weed growth and competition for resources. However, with rising concerns about water scarcity and climate change, cover crops are being reconsidered as sustainable ...

Integrated Numerical Modelling System for Extreme Wave Events at the Wave Hub Site [PDF]
This paper examines an extreme wave event which occurred during a storm at the Wave Hub site in 2012. The extreme wave of 9.57 m height was identified from a time series of the heave data collected by an Oceanor Seawatch Mini II Buoy deployed at the site.

ABSTRACT Genetic divergence between populations and/or species is mainly driven by reproductive isolation, that is, reduced gene flow, due to either pre‐ and/or postzygotic barriers. In this study, we investigate the role of (i) reproductive ecological interactions and (ii) mechanisms of evolutionary isolation between two genetically differentiated ...

Living Danube Limes Interreg project [PDF]
In this paper we present major results and activities of the project Interreg Living Danube limes. The project consortium comprises 19 universities, private and public companies from 10 Danube countries, and 27 associated strategic partners. Various research gaps were closed by applying modern non-invasive archaeological geo-prospection at chosen pilot
