  • Geomorphology of the northeast Sardinian continental shelf between Olbia and Posada (Italy)

    Open AccessMarino De Luca, L Casini et al.ARTICLEJournal of Maps2025

    The Geomorphologycal map of the continental shelf of the northeaster sector of the Sardinian coast has allowed the recognition of several seafloor features. These have been related to the geology and climate history of the area from the Last Glacial Maximum (LGM) to the early Holocene. During the LGM sea level was about 130 below the present and cuspate deltas fed by rivers crossing the continental shelf formed. The post LGM sea level rise caused…

  • Submerged coastal systems along the western Sardinian shelf (Mediterranean Sea)

    Open AccessClaudio Kalb, Duccio Bertoni et al.ARTICLEJournal of Maps2025

    This paper presents the geophysical mapping of the western Sardinia continental shelf (Mediterranean Sea, Italy). The focus is to highlight the various submerged coastal systems associated with the last eustatic cycle, consisting of beach barriers, submerged depositional terraces, submerged dunes and the current infralittoral prograding wedges. The study was carried out by interpreting MBES data, SSS photomosaics, reflection seismic data and aeri…

  • Late Holocene Evolution of the Lagoonal Harbour of the Punic Centre of Othoca (Western Sardinia, Mediterranean Sea)

    Open AccessG De Falco, Alfredo Carannante et al.ARTICLEGeoarchaeology2025

    Geophysical surveys and multiproxy analyses of sediment cores have been used to reconstruct the palaeoenvironmental evolution of the Santa Giusta coastal lagoon (SGL), along the western coast of Sardinia. This area served as a natural harbour mainly during the Punic and Roman Republican periods (6th–2nd century bc ). The inlet of the SGL is connected to the adjacent mouth of the River Tirso and lies on the incised valley of an ancient tributary t…

  • Geohazard features of the Northern Sardinia

    Open AccessAlessandro Conforti, Francesca Budillon et al.ARTICLEJournal of Maps2024

    The maps of the geohazard-related features of the North Sardinia continental margin produced by the Magic project (MArine Geohazard along Italian Coasts) are here presented. The maps were created on the base of morphobathymetric data obtained by with multibeam echo sounders. ThreCoNISMa, DSCG Università degli studi di Cagliari, Cittadella Universitaria Monserrato - S.P.

  • Geohazard features of the Gulf of Naples and Pontine Islands (Eastern Tyrrhenian Sea)

    Open AccessFrancesca Budillon, E Martorelli et al.ARTICLEJournal of Maps2024

    In this paper, we describe the geohazard-related elements of the Eastern Tyrrhenian Sea continental margin, situated between the 40° and 41° North latitude. These features were recognised principally through morphological analysis. The investigation utilized medium – and high-resolution digital models of the submarine landscape, produced within the framework of the Magic project (Marine Geohazard along Italian Coasts), and primarily focusing on t…

  • Geohazard features of the Tyrrhenian Calabria

    Open AccessDaniele Casalbore, Alessandro Conforti et al.ARTICLEJournal of Maps2024

    This paper accompanies the Maps of Geohazard features of the Cilento and the Calabro-Tyrrhenian continental margin in the southern Tyrrhenian Sea (Italy). The main geohazard-related features were derived from extensive seafloor mapping through the collection of high-resolution multibeam data acquired during several oceanographic cruises. They encompass many fluids seepage features, fault scarps, landslides scars, gullies, channels, and canyons. H…

  • Geohazard features of the western Sardinia

    Open AccessG De Falco, Alessandro Conforti et al.ARTICLEJournal of Maps2024

    The Maps of Geohazard features of the Western Sardinia produced by the Magic project (MArine Geohazard along Italian Coasts) were presented. The maps were created using morphobathymetric data obtained by surveying with a multi-beam echo sounder. The main potential geo-hazards on the western Sardinian margin are related with the presence of three pockmark fields which include hundreds of elements from few meters to several hundred meters in diamet…

  • Coralligenous banks along the western and northern continental shelf of Sardinia Island (Mediterranean Sea)

    Open AccessG De Falco, Alessandro Conforti et al.ARTICLEJournal of Maps2022

    Mapping of coralligenous banks was carried out along the continental shelf of the northern and western margin of Sardinia Island (Italy, western Mediterranean Sea) in the context of the European Marine Strategy Framework Directive (MSFD, 2008/56/EC). Coralligenous banks are bioconstructions produced by calcareous coralline algae. Seafloor mapping was carried out through multibeam echosounder surveys and video transects, using a Remote Operating V…

  • Flooding scenario for four Italian coastal plains using three relative sea level rise models

    Open AccessAntonella Marsico, Stefania Lisco et al.ARTICLEJournal of Maps2017

    The coastal areas of the central Mediterranean Sea are sensitive to climate change and the consequent relative sea level rise. Both phenomena may affect densely urbanized and populated areas, causing severe damages.Our maps show the land-marine flooding projections as effects of the expected relative sea level rise for four Italian coastal plains using (i) IPCC AR5 estimations, based on the IPCC RCP 8.5 emission scenarios and (ii) the Rahmstorf 2…
