Evolution of Crematogaster sordidula (Hymenoptera, Formicidae) Ants in the Mediterranean Region During Plio‐Pleistocene Climatic Changes

open access: yesZoologica Scripta, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Understanding insect responses to global climate change involves identifying strategies used during past climate oscillations. Phylogeography offers a powerful framework to unravel how historical climatic and geological events have shaped the spatial genetic patterns of species, providing critical insights into evolutionary processes, whereas ...

Hydrogeological mapping of heterogeneous and multi-layered ophiolitic aquifers (Mountain Prinzera, northern Apennines, Italy)

open access: yesJournal of Maps, 2017
A few hydrogeological studies have been carried out worldwide in peridotite aquifer systems, despite their wide distribution. The ophiolites are one of the main groundwater reservoir within the northern Apennines (Italy).

Phylogeny and Species Delimitation in the Land Snail Genus Chilostoma (Gastropoda: Helicidae) and East–West Alpine Disjunctions

open access: yesZoologica Scripta, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Chilostoma includes large, mostly rock‐dwelling snail species, widespread in the European Alps and the Apennines in Italy. We analysed the phylogenetic relationships and the species delimitation of the Chilostoma (Chilostoma) species based on genomic ddRAD loci. The Chilostoma (Chilostoma) taxa form three sister pairs. Chilostoma achates and C.

A record of fossil shallow-water whale falls from Italy [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
Twenty-five Neogene-Quaternary whales hosted in Italian museum collections and their associated fauna were analysed for evidence of whale-fall community development in shallow-water settings.

Arc Heat Flow and Magmatic Heat Budgets

open access: yesReviews of Geophysics, Volume 64, Issue 2, June 2026.
Abstract We evaluate hydrothermal heat loss from 11 volcanic‐arc segments (∼6,000 km of arc length, ∼10% of the global total), motivated by the observation that much magmatic heat ultimately crosses the land surface as heated aqueous fluid. Heat loss takes place by volcanic eruption, geothermal heat conduction to the surface, fumarolic (vapor ...

River Profile Analysis to Identify Active Tectonic Imprints in Rossenna Watershed, Northern Apennines, Italy [PDF]

open access: yesInternational Journal of Economic and Environment Geology, 2018
Northern Apennines is tectonically an active fold and thrust belt. Digital Elevation Model (DEM) based drainage network was extracted to analyze river profiles to document the influence of neotectonics on landscape evolution in Rossenna river basin ...

Climate Change Alters Elevational Distribution Patterns of Cormus domestica Habitat

open access: yesEcology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 5, May 2026.
This study utilizes species distribution models to project the habitat shifts of Cormus domestica in Italy, predicting a substantial range reduction of 32%–68% by 2100 driven primarily by rising annual mean temperatures. The results indicate a significant shift of suitable habitats toward higher elevations, creating a scenario where the necessary ...

No detection of chytrid in first systematic screening of Bombina variegata pachypus (Anura: Bombinatoridae) in Liguria, northern Italy [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
The Apennine Yellow-bellied toad Bombina variegata pachypus, a small anuran endemic to peninsular Italy, has been declining throughout its range over the last 30 years.

Geomorphological mapping of the Becca d'Aver deep‐seated gravitational slope deformation (Aosta Valley, Italy) based on multi‐scale and multi‐sensor analysis

open access: yesEarth Surface Processes and Landforms, Volume 51, Issue 5, May 2026.
Geomorphological characterization of the DsGSD enables us to identify the sources of sediment that could be mobilized as debris flows. In the area, pseudo‐badlands morphotype has been defined and mapped, representing the main sources of risk beside abandoned quarry deposits.

Hydrochemical determination of source water contributions to Lake Lungo and Lake Ripasottile (central Italy) [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
Lake Lungo and Lake Ripasottile are two shallow (4-5 m) lakes located in the Rieti Basin, central Italy, that have been described previously as surface outcroppings of the groundwater table.
