Cricotopus (s. str.) latellai sp. n., a new rheophilic species of the tremulus-group from the Italian and French Maritime Alps (Diptera: Chironomidae)

open access: yesCHIRONOMUS Journal of Chironomidae Research, 2018
Cricotopus (Cricotopus) latellai sp. n. is described and diagnosed based on material comprising male and female pharate adults, pupal exuviae and larvae recently collected in some glacial streams in both the Italian and French Maritime Alps.

Panoramica degli studi francoprovenzali sui due versanti delle Alpi

open access: yesGéolinguistique, 2022
This co-written contribution proposes an overview of Francoprovençal studies on both sides of the Alps. First, the history of the documentation of the Francoprovençal varieties on the Italian territory, in the Aosta Valley and in the Piedmontese valleys ...

Spatial Analysis of a mixed Beech, Spruce and Fir stand in the Eastern Alps [PDF]

open access: yes, 2010
In a forest reserve, located in the Eastern Italian Alps, a 4 ha permanent plot has been set up in a beech-spruce-fir multilayered forest, left to natural evolution for more than 30 years, in order to detect stand structure and spatial patterns ...

Statistical Downscaling of Daily Temperature and Precipitation From Regional Climate Models in Complex Mountain Terrain

open access: yesInternational Journal of Climatology, EarlyView.
The study provides insights for post‐processing climate model output in complex terrain, useful for climate change impact models. We compared different bias adjustment and downscaling techniques from quantile delta mapping to simple lapse rates. We developed a new spatial downscaling method based on principal components analysis, which showed superior ...

Biomineralization of primary carbonate cements: a new biosignature in the fossil record from the Anisian of Southern Italy

open access: yesLethaia, EarlyView., 2021
Biomineralization is a generic term used to indicate biological‐mediated mineral formation. In carbonate mineralization, nucleation of crystals can be: (1) controlled directly by the organisms, like in the skeletal formation of most metazoans; (2) induced by microbial communities, by indirect precipitation mediated by their metabolic activities; or (3)

Intercomparison of a Regional Climate Model Ensemble for Selected European Catchments

open access: yesInternational Journal of Climatology, EarlyView.
This study analyzes a regional climate model ensemble for water cycle and water resource research with two models. Results show that ICON generally outperforms TSMP1 simulations, mainly with 2‐m temperature and precipitation. These findings serve as a baseline evaluation that shows how key structural differences influence the model skill.

Second homes in the Alpine Region

open access: yesRevue de Géographie Alpine, 2014
Second homes have grown quickly in numbers in the last decades and played an important role in the development of many municipalities in the Alpine Region. With an estimated number of 1’850’000, second homes account for more than 25% of the housing stock

Holocene vegetation change and fire–plant diversity shifts in Mediterranean France

open access: yesJournal of Quaternary Science, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Changes in fire activity are recognized as a major threat to biodiversity and vegetation communities across the Mediterranean Basin. However, long‐term fire–vegetation interactions remain poorly investigated. Here, we combine a high‐resolution charcoal record with pollen data from the “Étang des Aulnes” lake (southern France) to reconstruct ...

Thrust sheet evolution in the Kinlochewe region of the Moine Thrust Zone, N.W. Scotland and the Pelvoux-Brianconnais, French Alps [PDF]

open access: yes, 1984
Balanced and restored cross sections demonstrate a minimum 16 km shortening below the Moine Thrust and minimum restored wi1ths of 17 km between the La Meije and Combeynot Thrusts (external Alps), and 54 km between the frontal Subbrianconnais Thrust ...
