Abstract

During the Late Pleistocene and Holocene periods, the Italian coasts have undergone a very articulated geological and geomorphological evolution, due to the complex and differentiated interaction of endogenous and exogenous dynamics. Aim of this study is to implement a geodatabase concerning the geomorphological, stratigraphic, biological and archaeological palaeo sea-level proxies located in the Gulf of Naples, in order to provide a catalogue of the most representative markers and an overall picture of ancient shorelines positions since the Late Pleistocene

Abstract

In the last years, the activities of Working Groups (WGs), in the framework of Italian Association of Physical Geography and Geomorphology (AIGeo), were aimed at the new issue of the legend of the Italian Geomorphological Map. The activities were performed keeping in mind the necessity: 1) to add new symbols because the great progress made in geomorphology, in terms of new knowledge on geomorphological processes and landforms, after the first issue of the legend in 1994; 2) to have a legend usable with large scale maps, suitable for applied purposes; 3) to create a legend usable with softwares (GIS environment, etc). The WG on Coastal Morphodynamics contributed to this work, as well, promoting, through meetings and workshops, the debate among the Italian coastal geomorphologists on the approach needed to produce a modern geomorphological legend. The classic dichotomy forms-processes used in the geomorphological mapping is often based to static concepts, especially when applied to marine and coastal areas, affected by fast dynamic events, sometimes paroxysmal. We present the new geomorphological legend to represent both coastal and underwater contexts, aimed to the improvement of classic geomorphological legends. The main goal of the work was the production of a legend suitable to clarify the importance and the need of representing landforms in the context ofthe Quaternary evolution, as well as from more recent or modern processes.

Abstract

This study was conducted within the framework of the “Coastal Morphodynamics” Working Group (WG) of the Italian Association of physical Geography and Geomorphology (AIGeo), according to the Institute for the Protection and Environmental Research (ISPRA) for the updating of the legend for the “Geomorphological Map of Italy”. The WG deals with the legend for the coastal areas, focusingits work on marine, lagoon and aeolian landforms, processes and deposits. In particular, the legend aims to classify coastal landforms in order to contribute to hazard and risk assessment,for supportingland-use planning and management. The legend allows the mapping of each landform in function of its genesis as well as its evolution and present dynamics, providing information about morphological characteristics at small and large scales. The relict morphological features and the active ones are reported along with the quantitative parameters useful for the description of the present wave/climate conditions and morphodynamics. As a result of the activities and experiments carried out by the “Coastal Morphodynamics” AIGeo WG during the last years, some examples of coastal geomorphological mappings at different scales (1:5,000 and 1:25,000) have been developed and are presented in this paper. The maps focus both on littoral plains and rocky coast dynamics as well as on the interactions with anthropic modifications.

Abstract

La costa molisana è interessata da una prevalente tendenza all’arretramento che si è delineata marcatamente nel corso degli ultimi cinquanta anni. Le cause di tale tendenza non sono ancora ben chiare, e in particolare non sono disponibili ad oggi dati che consentano di valutare le possibili influenze climatiche. Il presente lavoro, pertanto, si è posto l’obiettivo di indagare sui rapporti tra dinamica costiera e parametri meteomarini e, in particolare, sulla possibile influenza di questi ultimi sulle recenti tendenze evolutive della linea di costa. A tal fine, è stato effettuato uno studio di dettaglio del settore costiero compreso tra la foce del torrente Sinarca e Campomarino Lido. Lo studio condotto ha consentito di caratterizzare tale settore dal punto di vista morfologico- dinamico e meteomarino, e di distinguerlo in tre tratti in base alla tendenza evolutiva recente ricostruita per ciascuno di essi. I dati acquisiti hanno permesso di evidenziare una stretta relazione tra regime ondoso e quello anemologico e una diversa sensibilità dei tratti distinti all’azione del moto ondoso e conseguente drift litoraneo, tale da suggerire una probabile relazione tra tendenze evolutive dei vari tratti e locali condizioni meteomarine. Lo studio ha permesso, inoltre, di accertare importanti variazioni del regime anemologico a partire dalla metà degli anni ’70. Queste variazioni, consistenti in un incremento significativo delle frequenze dei venti dominanti e regnanti provenienti dagli ottanti settentrionali e in una recentissima riduzione delle frequenze delle calme, hanno portato ad una maggiore esposizione del settore costiero esaminato all’azione delle ondazioni principali e quindi ad un incremento delle sue condizioni di rischio di erosione.

Abstract

Several boreholes were studied in detail through different analytical methods in order to highlight the Holocene relative sea-level changes and the paleogeographical evolution of the southern sector of the Sele river coastal plain (Tyrrhenian Sea, southern Italy). Stratigraphic and paleontological analyses identified a transition from floodplain strata to brackish water, lagoon and upper shoreface deposits. The present setting of the outermost plain strip was interpreted as the result of a barrier-lagoon system which first migrated landward and then seaward during the Holocene. After being exposed to continental conditions during the Last Glacial regression, the study area gradually reached brackish water conditions at the beginning of the Holocene. Shortly before 6.7 ka cal BP the coastline reached its maximum retreat, reaching 1.6 km inland from the present shore. Subsequently, the barrier-lagoon system mainly prograded until marshy conditions were established, which partially persisted until very recent times. Four biological sea-level markers were sampled, and their ages, constrained by AMS 14C dating, span between 6.77 and 7.98 ka cal BP. Altitudes (m above mean sea level) of the collected samples were corrected taking into account the uncertainties of the vertical position with respect to the palaeo sea level. Vertical tectonic displacements were evaluated through the comparison between relative sea-level data and the Holocene predicted sea-level curve, as well as with the available morphotectonic and stratigraphic data. The results suggest negligible rates of vertical tectonic displacements during the Holocene, at least along the southern sector of the Sele river coastal plain.

Abstract

Abstract: The present study focuses on the morphotectonic evolution of the axial portion of the Southern Apennine chain between the lower Calore River valley and the northern Camposauro mountain front (Campania Region). A multidisciplinary approach was used, including geomorphological, field‐geology, stratigraphical, morphotectonic, structural, 40Ar/39Ar and tephrostratigraphical data. Results indicate that, from the Lower Pleistocene onwards, this sector of the chain was affected by extensional tectonics responsible for the onset of the sedimentation of Quaternary fluvial, alluvial fan and slope deposits. Fault systems are mainly composed of NW‐SE, NE–SW and W‐E trending strike‐slip and normal faults, associated to NW‐SE and NE–SW oriented extensions. Fault scarps, stratigraphical and structural data and morphotectonic indicators suggest that these faults affected the wide piedmont area of the northern Camposauro mountain front in the Lower Pleistocene–Upper Pleistocene time span. Faults affected both the oldest Quaternary slope deposits (Laiano Synthem, Lower Pleistocene) and the overlying alluvial fan system deposits constrained between the late Middle Pleistocene and the Holocene. The latter are geomorphologically and chrono‐stratigraphically grouped into four generations, I generation: late Middle Pleistocene–early Upper Pleistocene, with tephra layers 40Ar/39Ar dated to 158±6 and 113±7 ka; II generation: Upper Pleistocene, with tephra layers correlated with the Campanian Ignimbrite (39 ka) and with the slightly older Campi Flegrei activity (40Ar/39Ar age 48±7 ka); III generation: late Upper Pleistocene–Lower Holocene, with tephra layers correlated with the Neapolitan Yellow Tuff (~15 ka); IV generation: Holocene in age. The evolution of the first three generations was controlled by Middle Pleistocene extensional tectonics, while Holocene fans do not show evidence of tectonic activity. Nevertheless, considering the moderate to high magnitude historical seismicity of the study area, we cannot rule out that some of the recognized faults may still be active.

Abstract

The amount of coastal subsidence on the Sele River coastal plain has been examined and measured with local vertical land movement data. The vertical displacements, derived by satellite radar differential interferometry processing (Ps‐InSAR), show that the analysed coastal sector is characterised by a south‐eastward decrease of vertical subsidence rates. These results have been coupled with sea‐level rise (SLR) scenarios, in order to identify the most critical areas. In general, the subsidence mostly affects areas where alluvial deposits are thicker, the back‐dune areas and the Sele River mouth, all late Holocene in age. Five local SLR scenarios allow identifying zones in the plain potentially prone to inundation and the shoreline retreat for the years 2065 and 2100. For these dates, 2.2% and 7.06% of the investigated area will have a topography lower than the estimated future sea level. Moreover, results show that the extent of the areas potentially exposed to inundation and erosion increases moving from south to north. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
