Combining multi-source data to map vineyards in a specialized district of Basilicata (Southern Italy) Open
In agriculture, the geography of specific crops can successfully support productivity monitoring and farming practices management. Vineyards particularly have a key role in modeling and protecting Mediterranean landscapes, representing a f…

The role of hydrological circulation in the initiation process of debris flows in the Campanian volcanic terrain Open
Volcaniclastic debris flows are highly concentrated flows of rock debris, mud and water in which the sediment is of volcanic origin. These phenomena can be syneruptive, posteruptive, or unrelated to an eruption. To be generated, the coexis…

Development of algorithms based on the integration of meteorological data and remote sensing indices for the identification of low-productivity agricultural areas Open
Agricultural areas of Mediterranean regions host an extraordinary wealth of biodiversity and represent the source of income for a large population often living below the average economic conditions of the most advanced regions of Europe. I…

Delineating the Intrinsic, Long-Term Path of Land Degradation: A Spatially Explicit Transition Matrix for Italy, 1960–2010 Open
Vulnerability to land degradation in southern Europe has increased substantially in the last decades because of climate and land-use change, soil deterioration, and rising human pressure. The present work focuses on a quantitative evaluati…

Multi-Decadal Assessment of Soil Loss in a Mediterranean Region Characterized by Contrasting Local Climates Open
Soil erosion is one of the most widespread soil degradation phenomena worldwide. Mediterranean landscapes, due to some peculiar characteristics, such as fragility of soils, steep slopes, and rainfall distribution during the year, are parti…

Groundwater seepage is a key driver of theater-headed valley formation in limestone Open
Groundwater seepage leads to the formation of theater-headed valleys (THVs) in unconsolidated sediments. In bedrock, the role of groundwater in THV development remains disputed. Here, we integrate field and remote-sensing observations from…
