The concentrations of Cd, Cu, Mn, Ni, Pb, V, and Zn were measured in four different species of lichens (Parmelia caperata, P. pastillifera, P. saxatilis, P. sulcata) sampled in North-West Italy, in order to obtain maps showing metal distribution and the degree of deviation from background (natural) conditions. Significant differences among the species were found for Zn, Mn, Pb and V, suggesting that the combined use of mixed species in biomonitoring surveys can affect the interpretation of results. Results obtained for Parmelia caperata samples have been compared with background (natural) levels, and maps showing the distribution of each metal expressed as deviation from background levels have been obtained. Overall such maps show a medium to high alteration degree in the study area. 相似文献

Following the increase in seismic activity which occurred near Isernia (Molise, Central Italy) in January 1986, a digital seismic network of four stations with three-component, short-period seismometers, was installed in the area by the Osservatorio Vesuviano. The temporary network had an average station spacing of about 8–10 km and, in combination with permanent local seismic stations, allowed the accurate determination of earthquake locations during an operating period of about one month. Among the 1517 detected earthquakes, 170 events were selected with standard errors on epicentre and depth not greater than respectively 0.5 and 1.5 km. The most frequent focal depths ranged between 4 and 8 km, while the epicentres distribution covered a small area NE of Isernia of about 10 km2. A main rupture zone could not be clearly identified from the spatial distribution of the earthquakes, suggesting a rupture mechanism involving heterogeneous materials. The activity was characterized by low energy levels, the largest earthquake, on January 18, 1986, havingM

Unique volcanic structures, known in the literature as “lava trees” and “tree molds”, have formed at several sites on Mt.
Etna volcano (northeastern Sicily, Italy). They form when a fluid lava flow runs over a tree, wraps around it and, while the
wood burns off, solidifies forming a hollow cast of the tree. The inhabitants of the Etna area call these formations “pietre
cannone” (“cannon stones”) because of their cylindrical shape. The first documentation of lava trees is from Hawaii, but the
first eye-witnessed accounts of their formation are, to our knowledge, from Etna’s 1865 eruption. Although many of the literature
examples of lava trees and tree molds formed in pahoehoe, many of those reported in this work formed in a’a. The sites where
we have found the lava tree molds are located within the territory of the Etna Regional Park; most occur next to walking trails
and have a high potential for geotourism. 相似文献

Solar empirical models based on regression of two variability indices for radiation from the photosphere and chromosphere
fit total solar irradiance (TSI) observations with accuracy comparable to the precision reported for the observations themselves.
However, the physical meaning of the fitting coefficients and their stability during different phases of the solar cycle has
not been examined in detail. We test the stability of the coefficients in regression models of the VIRGO TSI observations
over the nine years from the minimum of Cycle 23 in 1996 through the maximum to 2005. We also show how the coefficients converge
to the ‘`best fit’' using a search in the coefficient space. Analysis of TSI variability in different phases of this cycle
shows little change in regression models as long as the time periods used in the regression are long enough to show the slow
solar cycle variation in TSI. We extend our analysis to TSI observations from ERB, ACRIM2, ACRIM3, DIARAD, and TIM. The regression
models from these time series show large systematic differences in fitting coefficients for the plage and sunspot indices
that we used. These differences are significantly larger than the estimated uncertainties in the coefficients and point to
the difficulty of combining observations from different instruments to create an accurate composite TSI record over several
solar cycles. Our results clearly demonstrate the improvement in precision of TSI measurements from the Nimbus 7 ERB in Cycle
22 to the latest SORCE TIM data in Cycle 23. 相似文献

Geomorphic and trench investigations are used toanalyze the seismic potential of the Aremogna-CinqueMiglia fault, an active N- to NW-trending, W-facingnormal fault located in Central Apennines. Wereconstructed a complex 16 km-long, as much as 6m-high, fault scarp that displaces late Holocenesediments in the Aremogna and Cinque Miglia basins.The complex surface expression of the fault, withdouble sub-parallel scarp sections, a change in strikeof about 40° and local complexity showingimportant horizontal component, appears to becontrolled by the presence of older tectoniclineaments. We opened two trenches across the faultscarp, used a quarry exposure, and reinterpreted atrench opened by Frezzotti and Giraudi (1989), to findthe geological evidence for three Holocene surfacefaulting earthquakes on the Aremogna-Cinque Migliafault. Based on radiocarbon dating and stratigraphicand climatic considerations timing of the events isconstrained between 800 B.C. and 1030 A.D., between3735 and 2940 B.C., and between 3540 and 5000 B.C.. The most recent event is not reported in the twomillennia-long Italian Catalogues of HistoricalSeismicity. We suggest that the most recent eventcould be one of the Middle Age earthquakes of unknownorigin for which several felt reports exist in Rome.Moreover, we also consider the hypothesis that one ofthe shocks of the ambiguous September 1349 earthquakesequence could be the Aremogna-Cinque Miglia mostrecent event. Anyway, based on historicalconsideration we indicate A.D. 1349 as the youngestpossible age for this event. Finally, we suggest theAremogna-Cinque Miglia fault is part of the easternsecondary Apennines seismogenic belt. The faultparameters we obtain for this fault (i.e., recurrence interval longer than 2000 yr, verticallong-term slip rate of 0.3–0.5 mm/yr and m 6.5–6.8 forthe event) can be used as a first hand reference tocharacterize the seismic behavior of other faultsalong this section of the Apennines. 相似文献

This article describes a methodology to analyse debris-flow risk in the torrential watersheds of the southern hillside of
Gargano (Puglia—Italy). The approach integrates a stability model that identifies the areas of potential shallow landslides
in different meteorological conditions with a two-dimensional flood routing model that allows hazard mapping and GIS interface.
The results were combined with a susceptibility map that was defined by analyzing the vulnerability conditions and the exposure
of the alluvial fan. The models were calibrated on the 1972, July catastrophic event for which the distribution of rainstorm
intensity was available. The geo-mechanical properties of the debris were studied by field surveys and laboratory tests while
the sediment source areas and the shape of the alluvial cone were obtained using photo-aerial interpretation. The risk conditions
of the areas under consideration were also investigated in order to plan and guide measures aimed at limiting the damage such
hazards may cause. 相似文献

The External Tanger Unit represents one of the most complete Cretaceous-Miocene successions in the central areas of the Internal Intrarif sub-Domain (External Rif Zones, Morocco). An interdisciplinary study has been carried out to propose a new characterization of this unit which would allow a better comprehension of the confused and complex relationships among different units of the same sub-domain. The results achieved can be summarized as follows: (1) redefinition of the stratigraphic (litho-, bio-, and chrono-) record and introduction of a new, informal lithostratigraphic terminology; (2) recognition of two main depositional sequences (lower-middle Eocene p.p. and lower Oligocene p.p.-lower Miocene p.p.) separated by extended gaps (latest Cretaceous-early Eocene p.p. and middle Eocene p.p.-early Oligocene p.p.); (3) reconstruction of the evolution of the sedimentary realm, and of the relationships between tectonics and sedimentation; and (4) comparison between the upper Cretaceous-Miocene stratigraphic record and tectonic events of the Intrarif, which is located in the western external portion of the Maghrebian Flysch Basin, and the equivalent sedimentary record of the eastern portion of this basin in the Tunisian Tell. More in general, our results allowed (i) a first reconstruction of the Cretaceous-Miocene main tectono-sedimentary events; (ii) a more detailed location of the sedimentary suite in the external African Margin in the context of a wider palaeogeographic framework; and (iii) the definition of the main stages of the geological evolution of the area. 相似文献
