Geological and biological characterization of the Miramare Marine Protected Area, north-eastern Adriatic Sea (Italy)
Marine protected areas are essential for the conservation of marine environment, biodiversity and geodiversity. Ecosystems are closely linked to the variability of different geological settings and it is important to integrate different data for effective management. To this purpose, geophysical, geological and biological surveys have been carried out in the Miramare Marine Protected Area (north-eastern Adriatic Sea) since 2003 to characterize th…
Geohazard features of the Gulf of Taranto
Here, we explore the complex seabed morphologies of the Gulf of Taranto in southern Italy including their connection to the geodynamic evolution of the region that began during the Neogene period when the Adria plate started subducting beneath the retreating Calabrian arc. We compiled the first Maps of the Geohazard Features of the Gulf of Taranto through comprehensive and collaborative high-resolution seabed surveys, integrating regional high-re…
Geohazard Features of the Ionian Calabrian Margin
Here we present a detailed description of different geomorphic features to complement the Maps of Geohazard Features of the Ionian Calabrian Margin produced by the Magic project (Marine Geohazard along Italian Coasts). Some of the most striking features we imaged are sources of widespread and recurrent geohazards. These include multiple coastal landslides, failure scars along open slopes, shelf-indenting retrogressive canyon headwalls and active …
The River Valleys of the Greek Colony of Selinunte
The ancient Greek colony of Selinunte, with its acropolis on a promontory on the south-western coast of Sicily, is flanked by two valleys where two modest rivers flow today: the Modione to the west and the Cottone to the east. Archaeological reconstructions, historical documents from various sources, and recent remote sensing surveys indicate two important bays corresponding to the ancient mouths of these two rivers, now completely covered by a t…
Shallow geophysics of the Asinara Island Marine Reserve Area (NW Sardinia, Italy)
We present a high-resolution swath bathymetric and backscatter map of the entire sector of the Marine Reserve Area (MRA) of the Asinara Island, along with a geological and sediment thickness map derived from the interpretation of a large set of high-resolution seismic profiles, and an airborne-derived hyperspectral image of the Asinara Island. Acquired data show that most of the eastern marine sector of the Asinara Island is characterized by quit…
