Epiphytic lichen vegetation on Larix in the Italian Alps
Plant Biosystems - An International Journal Dealing with all Aspects of Plant Biology, 2006Abstract A synthesis of the epiphytic lichen vegetation on larch in the Italian Alps is presented. Vegetation types are described on the basis of a numerical classification of 291 releves. They can be compared to a few well-known phytosociological unions found in other parts of the Alps.

Organizational and ergonomic analysis of forest work in the italian alps
International Journal of Industrial Ergonomics, 1990Abstract The authors report the first results of a global survey on the working conditions in the forests of the Italian Alps, where the mechanization of the operations is limited, owing to the difficult geomorphological conditions. First, an organizational analysis was performed in all the phases of forest work by using the method of organizational

Occurrence of PAH in the seasonal snowpack of the Eastern Italian Alps
Environmental Pollution, 2010PAH concentrations have been determined in 47 seasonal snowpack samples collected in the Valbelluna valley and in the Bellunesi Dolomites National Park, in the Italian North-Eastern Alps, during the winter of 2005. The SigmaPAH concentration in high-altitude alpine sites (above 1700 m) was 32+/-20 ng/kg while in valley bottom urban areas it was 165 ...
