Magic Project collection – Marine Geohazards along the Italian Coasts
The collection about the MAGIC Project (Marine Geohazards along the Italian Coasts) presents the result of a comprehensive cartographic and scientific overview of geohazard features across the Italian offshore regions. The Project mapped 15 geodynamically distinct regions through a standardized methodology and a unified legend. The outcomes highlight how the interplay of tectonic, volcanic, sedimentary, and oceanographic processes shape the seafl…
Geomorphology of landslide–flood-critical areas in hilly catchments and urban areas for EWS (Feltrino Stream and Lanciano town, Abruzzo, Central Italy)
Urban and small catchment landslides and floods are common types of hazards caused by intense rainfall. The detailed geomorphological mapping and analysis of the superficial hydrographic network are fundamental tools to assess the geo-hydrologically critical areas. In this study, the Feltrino Stream and Lanciano area (Adriatic coastal-hills) were investigated through a basin-scale and urban-scale geomorphological analysis – which incorporated tem…
Geomorphological analysis of drainage changes in the NE Apennines piedmont area
This work presents a tectonic geomorphology analysis of a river bend in the middle Tavo River valley, in the piedmont area of the NE Apennines (Abruzzo Region), between the eastern slope of the chain (Gran Sasso Massif) and the Adriatic coast. The main map (1:15,000 scale) was obtained through a morphometric, geological, and geomorphological analysis, and was composed of four sections including orography and hydrography at basin scale, main map a…
Analysis of the paraglacial landscape in the Ny-Ålesund area and Blomstrandøya (Kongsfjorden, Svalbard, Norway)
Ice cover changes have affected the Svalbard Islands during the Quaternary and conditioned a complex paraglacial landscape. In these remote and poorly vegetated arctic areas, the integration of field investigations and analysis of aerial images and DTMs or terrestrial laser scanning, is effective in the understanding landscape features and changes. In this work, we present the results of a geomorphological investigation and mapping in two sites a…
Morphotectonics of the Tasso Stream - Sagittario River valley (Central Apennines, Italy)
This work presents the morphotectonic map of the Tasso Stream-Sagittario River valley, located in the Central Abruzzo area (Marsica region), in one of the areas of highest average elevation in the Apennines chain between two main intermontane basins (i.e. the Sulmona basin and Fucino basin). It is bounded by one of the main drainage divides of Central Italy, separating the Adriatic side of the Apennines from the large endorheic Fucino area. The m…
Geological tourist mapping of the Mount Serrone fault Geosite (Gioia dei Marsi, Central Apennines, Italy)
The Geological tourist map of the Mount Serrone fault Geosite (Gioia dei Marsi, Italy) has been realized for describing, in an educational perspective, the surface expression of one of the main active faults of the Central Apennines, connected with the 1915 Fucino earthquake (magnitude 7, historically, one of the strongest in Italy). The Central Apennines are a mountain range whose landscape is deeply connected to active tectonics and seismicity,…
Morphotectonics of the Pescara River basin (Central Italy)
This work presents a morphotectonic map of the Pescara River basin (1:40,000 scale), located in the piedmont-hilly area of the central-eastern Apennines (Abruzzo Region, Italy), and stretching from the eastern slope of the chain (Maiella Massif, Morrone Mt. and Gran Sasso Range) to the Adriatic coast. It is the outcome of an extensive drainage basin-scale geomorphological analysis and incorporates four main sections: orography and hydrography; mo…
Castel di Sangro-Scontrone field camp – structural and applied geomorphology
The Geomorphological Field Camp 2014 in the Castel di Sangro-Scontrone area is the result of geological and geomorphological teaching field work activities carried out in Central Italy by a group of 23 students attending the Structural Geomorphology and Applied Geomorphology courses (Master's Degree in Geological Science and Technology of the Università degli Studi ‘G. d'Annunzio’ Chieti-Pescara, Italy, Department of Engineering and Geology). The…
Geomorphological features of the Montebello sul Sangro large landslide (Abruzzo, Central Italy)
This work presents the first results of an integrated geomorphological analysis of a large earthflow in Montebello sul Sangro (Abruzzo, Central Italy). The study is based on a multitemporal geomorphological investigation supported by the morphometric analysis of the drainage network and numerical landslide modelling. The multitemporal geomorphological investigation, based on the interpretation of aerial photos, LiDAR data and field geomorphologic…
Geomorphology of the floodplain at the confluence of the Aventino and Sangro rivers (Abruzzo, Central Italy)
This paper presents a geomorphological map of the floodplain at the confluence of the Aventino and Sangro rivers (scale 1:10,000), located across the Adriatic piedmont of the Maiella Massif (Abruzzo Region, Central Italy). This area is in the lower reach of the Sangro–Aventino drainage basin, which in the mid-1900s was affected by the creation of four main artificial water reservoirs by damming of the basin's major rivers and the related network …
Near-surface deposits and hillslope evolution of the Adriatic piedmont of the Central Apennines (Feltrino Stream basin and minor coastal basins, Abruzzo, Italy)
This work presents a geomorphological map of the Feltrino Stream basin and minor surrounding coastal basins (scale 1:20,000), located in the south-eastern Abruzzo area (Central Italy), across the Adriatic piedmont of the Maiella massif (Central Apennines). This geomorphological mapping is focused on near-surface deposits and hillslope evolution analysis and includes three sections: main geomorphological map; orography and hydrography; and geomorp…
Tectonic-geomorphological map of the middle Aterno River valley (Abruzzo, Central Italy)
After the 6 April, 2009 normal faulting L'Aquila earthquake (Mw 6.3), the attention of many scientists was drawn to the Abruzzo Apennines. Until that time few studies had addressed the geomorphological and morphotectonic features of this area and none to extensive geomorphological mapping.The tectonic-geomorphological map (scale 1:40,000) presented in this work is the result of a morphotectonic investigation of the middle Aterno River valley, whi…
Morphotectonic map of the Aventino-Lower Sangro valley (Abruzzo, Italy), scale 1
This work presents the Morphotectonic map of the Aventino-Lower Sangro valley, located in the southern Abruzzi area, and extending from the Apennines chain to the eastern piedmont, from the Maiella Mountain to the Adriatic coast. It is the result of an extensive drainage basin scale geomorphological analysis carried out in the Abruzzi area and incorporates four main sections: orography and hydrography (upper right on the map); morphotectonic sect…
Morphotectonic map of the Osento River basin (Abruzzo, Italy), scale 1
This work presents a morphotectonic map of the Osento River basin, located in the southern Abruzzi area, Italy, flowing on the eastern Apennines piedmont into the Adriatic coast. The piedmont area developed in a marine environment from the Pliocene to the early Pleistocene resulting in the deposition of a clayey-sandy sequence. Afterwards, regional uplift with NE tilting, led to the deposition of a regressive conglomeratic sequence, as the area e…
Geomorphological map of the Tremiti Islands (Puglia, Southern Adriatic Sea, Italy), scale 1
This paper describes the Geomorphological map of the Tremiti Islands (Puglia, Southern Adriatic Sea, Italy), scale 1:15,000. The Tremiti Islands, located north of Gargano promontory's coast, are part of a complex geological area within the Adriatic basin, facing the junction between the central and southern Apennines. This area is well known for Neogenic-Quaternary stratigraphic, tectonic and seismologic aspects and is crucial for the definition …
