Quantitative characterization of geomorphological and topographical features of debris-flow channels at the Alpe di Succiso mountain, Northern Apennines (Italy)
This study combines the traditional method of geological and geomorphological mapping with a quantitative GIS analysis to examine landforms and debris flows channels. Using a high-resolution DEM (5 m) as a base, the geomorphological map highlights the various landforms around the Alpe di Succiso (Northern Apennines, Italy), including glacial and cryoclastic features, slope landforms and deposits due to gravity (particularly debris flow) and depos…
Geo-historical study for landslide hazard assessment in territory management
Landslides inventories are crucial documents for extrapolating the spatial distribution of landslides that occurred in the past. However, the production of landslide hazards maps also needs deepening the knowledge on the temporal distribution of landslide activity. In this regard, historical maps and archive documents represent important sources of data and information on territory evolution through time and especially on landslides occurrence. N…
An integrated approach for tracking climate-driven changes in treeline environments on different time scales in the Valle d’Aosta, Italian Alps
Both biotic and abiotic components, characterizing the mountain treeline ecotone, respond differently to climate variations. This study aims at reconstructing climate-driven changes by analyzing soil evolution in the late Holocene and by assessing the climatic trends for the last centuries and years in a key high-altitude climatic treeline (2515 m a.s.l.) on the SW slope of the Becca di Viou mountain (Aosta Valley Region, Italy). This approach is…
Weakening climatic signal since mid-20th century in European larch tree-ring chronologies at different altitudes from the Adamello-Presanella Massif (Italian Alps)
Tree rings from temperature-limited environments are highly sensitive climate proxies, widely used to reconstruct past climate parameters for periods prior to the availability of instrumental data and to analyse the effect of recent global warming on tree growth. An analysis of the climatic signal in five high-elevation tree-ring width chronologies of European larch ( Larix decidua Mill.) from the tops of five different glacial valleys in the Ita…
The influence of glacier surface processes on the short-term evolution of supraglacial tree vegetation
Supraglacial debris cover allows vegetation to colonize glacier surface, and whenever it is enough stable and thick, also shrubs and trees can germinate and grow. Supraglacial tree growth and distribution patterns on the glacier are closely connected with the debris-covered glacier dynamics and evolution. The aim of the research reported here was to evaluate the tree age and tree distribution patterns on the glacier tongue and the influence of ic…
