The study investigates the seasonal transport of black carbon (BC) from Almaty, Kazakhstan, to adjacent mountain areas. The radiative effects associated with BC are evaluated at the surface, within the atmosphere, and at the top of the atmosphere. ABSTRACT Large cities with poor air quality can affect surrounding areas through pollutant transport and ...

A new Late-glacial and Holocene record of vegetation and fire history from Lago del Greppo, northern Apennines, Italy [PDF]
Detailed Late-glacial and Holocene palaeoenvironmental records from the northern Apennines with a robust chronology are still rare, though the region has been regarded as a main area of potential refugia of important trees such as Picea abies and Abies ...

Human tularemia in Italy. Is it a re-emerging disease? [PDF]
In order to evaluate whether tularemia is re-emerging in Italy, data on mortality and morbidity (obtained by the National Institute of Statistics; ISTAT), Italian cases described in the scientific literature and data concerning hospitalizations for ...

The seismic sequence that hit Umbria and Marche during 1997 and 1998 was particularly significant because it dramatically marked the evolution of analysis tools and the development of our geophysical knowledge of the region. Since September 1997, we have

Abstract Outdoor recreation is reported to have many positive effects on individuals and communities. However, when recreationists' presence becomes overcrowding, it can cause ecological damage to natural sites while also reducing the benefits of outdoor recreation for recreationists and local communities.

Abstract In subduction zones, the locked seismogenic zone is bordered by an upper and a lower transition zone. In these transition zones, deformation is primarily accommodated by an interplay of diffuse viscous deformation within a weak matrix and brittle deformation in stiffer bands and blocks.

Abstract The fate of an oceanic plate that has been subducted over an extended period of time involves slab break‐off, which can occur either simultaneously across the entire slab or locally, creating a tear that propagates sub‐horizontally. These processes are thought to explain various geological observations, such as the evolution of foreland basins,

Fault slip-rate variations during crustal-scale strain localisation, central Italy [PDF]
Rates of plate motion are generally uniform over 10–102 Myrs timescales. Faults between tectonic plates might, therefore, be expected to show temporally-uniform slip-rates if the same number of faults remain active. For an extending region of the Eurasia-

The temporal pattern of the High Reggio Emilia Apennine upper timberline during the second half of the 19th century has been studied at landscape level in the Prado-Cusna area since 1954.

Abstract Throw rates of active faults are expected to scale with fault length because the geometric moment of a fault is directly related to its dimensions. However, empirical data sets commonly display substantial scatter, which limits the use of fault scaling relationships for seismic hazard assessment and for understanding the mechanics of ...
