Village relocation as solution of the landslide risk, is it always the right choice? The case study of Cavallerizzo ghost village (Calabria, southern Italy)
Organic carbon and total nitrogen topsoil stocks, biogenetic natural reserve ‘Marchesale’ (Calabria region, southern Italy)
It is essential estimating the spatial distribution of soil organic carbon (SOC) and soil total nitrogen (STN) stocks and their spatial-temporal variations to understand the role of soil in ecosystem services and in the global cycles of carbon and nitrogen. This work was aimed to quantify and map the stocks of SOC and STN in topsoils in an area of the Biogenetic Natural Reserve ‘Marchesale’ (Calabria region, southern Italy). Forest soil samples (…
Soil loss assessment in the Turbolo catchment (Calabria, Italy)
Soil loss caused by accelerated erosion is a growing problem in the Mediterranean belt in general, and in many parts of the Calabrian region (Southern Italy), in particular. It is due to the combination of peculiar geomorphological, pedological and climatic features, very often exacerbated by unsuitable land management. The aim of this study is to analyze and map soil loss by water-induced soil erosion at the catchment scale. Soil loss was quanti…
Mass movements inventory map of the Rubbio stream catchment (Basilicata – South Italy)
In the Basilicata region (South Italy) slope movements, caused by soft rocks, rapid tectonic uplift, earthquakes, and seasonally heavy precipitation, constitute one of the major geologic hazards. For this reason a detailed inventory map of mass movements has been created in a test area of south-eastern Basilicata. The map was compiled from field surveys and multi-temporal air photo interpretation. For each landslide, the map depicts the state of …
Landslide inventory map of north-eastern Calabria (South Italy)
Landslides are one of the most widespread natural hazards in many areas of Calabria region (Southern Italy), due to the combination of its peculiar geological, morphological, and climatic characteristics and very often to unsustainable land management. This study reports the reconnaissance and the characterization of landslides of north-eastern Calabria (south Italy). The landslide inventory map was obtained by combining field surveys with the an…
Denudation processes and landforms map of the Camastra River catchment (Basilicata – South Italy)
This paper performs denudation processes and landforms characterizing the Camastra River catchment (Basilicata – South Italy), on a 1:40,000 scale map. The map, which includes gravitational processes and landforms and water erosion processes and landforms, was obtained by combining field surveys with the analysis of topographic maps and of multi-temporal aerial photos, ranging from 1954 to 2010. These latter provided information on both spatial a…
Geomorphological map of the Crotone Province (Calabria, South Italy)
Please click here to download the map associated with this article. The geomorphological map described covers an area of about 1,720 km, located on the northeastern part of Calabria (south Italy); it contributes to the understanding of both long-term landscape evolution and present-day trends of the Crotone Province. The map, at a 1:75,000 scale, integrates information coming from geomorphological analysis of relief, air photo interpretation and …
