Mountains of fire: The case study of Pantelleria island and the issue of volcanic landscapes

JoLA - Journal of Landscape Architecture
This paper examines the role of fire as a generator of landscape form. Specifically, it explores the moments when fire—as a natural element— reveals itself by shaping topographic features, such as the volcano, and how this process gives rise to what may ...

Mapping Marine Biodiversity Vulnerability for Offshore Wind Development: Insights from Pantelleria Island

2025 Artificial Intelligence for Business (AIxB)
Offshore wind energy is rapidly emerging as a cornerstone of the global transition to renewable power. Yet, its deployment in marine environments demands careful ecological scrutiny to avoid unintended biodiversity impacts.

Extreme differentiation along multiple liquid lines of descent in strongly peralkaline magma series at Pantelleria (Italy)

Journal of Petrology, 2023
The liquid line of descent (LLOD) from trachyte to pantellerite is controlled primarily by fractional crystallization of alkali feldspar, with whole-rock compositions following a fractionation path along the “thermal valley” in the peralkaline ...

A COMPARATIVE ANALYSIS OF WAVE ENERGY CONVERTERS PERFORMANCE USING SWAN AND ERA5 DATASETS WITH A CASE STUDY ON PANTELLERIA ISLAND

Coastal Engineering Proceedings
The paper thoroughly examines the operational efficiency of two prototypical Wave Energy Converters – specifically, a flap and a point absorber. The analysis draws upon data gleaned from both the SWAN numerical model and the ECMWF ERA5 database.

Updated checklist of hoverflies (Diptera: Syrphidae) from the Sicily Channel Islands, with new records from Pantelleria and Linosa

Journal of Insect Biodiversity
Despite the increasing interest in pollinators, the knowledge of hoverfly fauna (Diptera: Syrphidae) from Pantelleria and the Pelagian Islands remains fragmentary. Previous data refers only to Lampedusa and Linosa. This paper reports results of the first

Pantelleria Revisited

Antiquity, 1963
Pantelleria is a small island, 34 square miles or so, lying south of the western end of Sicily and within sight of Cape Bon, the projecting tip of the African coast (FIG. I). Though every ship through the Sicilian straits passes close by, it can be extraordinarily isolated, as we found to our cost on a visit in November, 1962.

First report of microplastics in water and sediments of the alkaline Bagno dell'Acqua Lake (Pantelleria Island, Southern Italy).

Environmental Pollution
Microplastics are ubiquitous in aquatic ecosystems and lakes are considered important sinks for this contaminant. In this study, we assessed for the first time the occurrence and spatial distribution of microplastics in surficial waters and sediment of a

Mooring System Design and Analysis for a Floating Offshore Wind Turbine in Pantelleria

Wind Energy, 2022
The mooring system plays a key role in a floating offshore wind turbine: it connects the floating structure to its anchor on the seabed and it is designed to prevent the platform from drifting under the action of wind, waves and currents. The layout of

Genetics and ecology of an island endemic from Pantelleria: Acheta pantescus (Orthoptera Gryllidae)

Bulletin of insectology
The biology of the recently described stenoecious cricket Acheta pantescus is mostly unknown. This study includes an integrative systematics approach using ecology and barcode sequencing of the mtDNA NADH dehydrogenase subunits (ND1), the cytochrome c ...
