Post-collisional tectonics in the Northern Cottian Alps (Italian Western Alps) [PDF]
ield mapping and structural analysis have allowed us to characterise the fault geometry and the post-metamorphic tectonics of an area located in the Northern Cottian Alps (inner Western Alps). Two main faulting stages were distinguished here. The first (Oligocene?-Early Miocene) is related to the development of an E-W-striking left-normal shear zone ...

Chi ha bisogno della montagna italiana?
Due to urban and industrial development in the post-war period, the Italian Alps and Apennines have experience an intense phenomenon of depopulation, mainly caused by massive emigration to urban areas. Italian mountain regions, considered for a long time

Amenity Migration in the Alps: Applying Models of Motivations and Effects to 2 Case Studies in Italy
Using 2 models, this article illustrates different forms of in-migration in the Alps, the motivations for relocation, and effects of newcomers on their destination areas. Since the 1990s, more and more communities in the European Alps, which had suffered

Seismotectonic investigations in the inner Cottian Alps (Italian Western Alps): An integrated approach [PDF]
This work integrates the results of recent geological-structural studies with new seismological data for the inner Cottian Alps to investigate the connection between faults and seismicity. The major post-metamorphic tectonic feature of this sector is represented by a N-S structure, named Lis-Trana Deformation Zone (LTZ).

A distributed energy-balance melt model of an alpine debris-covered glacier [PDF]
Distributed energy-balance melt models have rarely been applied to glaciers with extensive supraglacial debris cover. This paper describes the development of a distributed melt model and its application to the debris-covered Miage glacier, western ...
