Relating the management difficulty to the abandonment rate of traditional mountain vineyards
Cultural landscapes and the associated land uses are highly dynamic and subject to continuous change over space and time. In recent times, European traditional agricultural practices such as winegrowing on steep slopes have come under pressure from various underlying factors such as e.g., the globalization of the wine market, the optimization of production processes, changes in customer preferences, increased pathogen pressure, climate change imp…
The Roman Legacy on European Chestnut and Walnut Arboriculture
The political and administrative unification process under the Roman Empire resulted not only in a progressive linguistic, religious, and cultural homogenisation of the concerned population, but also in the need of trade and exchanges for satisfying new dietary habits and markets. In this paper, we use palaeoecological pollen and macroremain records extracted from Neotoma online database and from scientific literature to analyse the contribution …
Using chorographic sources to reconstruct past agro-forestry systems. A methodological approach based on the study case of the northern Apennines
Historical-geographical (chorographic) descriptions provide some of the earliest formal documentation about landscape. We propose a methodological approach aimed at reconstructing a spatial-explicit picture of the agroforestry system of a eighteenth-century landscape, detecting the main land-use drivers, and analysing existing legacies of past agro-forestry productivity in the present landscape. The study area was the Bologna Apennines, and our d…
The selection of suitable sites for traditional charcoal production
The role of human-induced fire and sweet chestnut ( Castanea sativa Mill.) cultivation on the long-term landscape dynamics of the southern Swiss Alps
Changes in fire occurrence during the last decades in the southern Swiss Alps make knowledge on fire history essential to understand future evolution of the ecosystem composition and functioning. In this context, palaeoecology provides useful insights into processes operating at decadal-to-millennial time scales, such as the response of plant communities to intensified fire disturbances during periods of cultural change. We provide a high-resolut…
Modelling the eco-cultural niche of giant chestnut trees
Fascinating Remoteness
Remote areas devoid of roads and tourist transport infrastructure are increasingly appreciated in urbanized countries because they provide the opportunity to experience tranquillity, solitude, and pristine nature, which are recreational qualities that contrast with the stress of urban life. In Switzerland as a whole, larger roadless areas are rare, but they are still common in southern Switzerland as the “inventory of remote areas,” which was est…
