The Turin fluvial terraces as evidence of the new Holocene setting of the Po River
A detailed geomorphological mapping of the Po River fluvial terraces into Turin was performed through a field survey. Although Turin is crossed by the Po River, most of the town is built on the extended alpine outwash fans linked to its tributaries (essentially fed by the Dora Riparia Basin), made by 20–60 m thick gravel with sand lenses, or on erosional terraces (T1 and T2) shaped by the Po River into these sediments. Only a small sector of the …
Deep-seated gravitational slope deformation involving glacial evidence in the Rodoretto Valley (NW Alps)
The Rodoretto Valley (about 25 km2) (Western Alps, NW Italy) shaped in the metamorphic bedrock, covered by Quaternary sediments, is involved in significant deep-seated gravitational slope deformation (DSGSD). A detailed field survey revealed several morpho-structures typically related to DSGSD phenomena (open fractures, doubled ridges, scarps, trenches, counterscarps and bulging reliefs) and other significant gravitational morphologies, here defi…
The Last Three Millions of Unequal Spring Thaws
Relicts of the Pleistocene Po Plain on the Western and Southern slopes of Turin Hill (NW Italy)
A detailed geological survey of the Southern slope of Turin Hill reveals a Pleistocene terraced fluvial succession consisting of flat surfaces separated by scarps with associated fluvial clayey–silty and gravelly sediments. This succession is not linked to the present N–S hilly streams, but is instead related to major Pleistocene W–E rivers. The collected regional data suggest an ancient trend of the Po River flowing across Turin Hill, prior to i…
