Moderate to strong crustal earthquakes are generally accompanied by a distinctive pattern of coseismic geological phenomena, ranging from surface faulting to ground cracks, landslides, liquefaction/compaction, which leave a permanent mark in the landscape. Therefore, the repetition of surface faulting earthquakes over a geologic time interval determines a characteristic morphology closely related to seismic potential. To support this statement, the areal distribution and dimensions of effects of recent historical earthquakes in the Southern Apennines are being investigated in detail. This paper presents results concerning the 26 July 1805 earthquake in the Molise region, (I =X MCS, M = 6.8), and the 23 November 1980 earthquake in the Campania and Basilicata regions (I =XMSK,Ms = 6.9). Landslide data are also compared with two other historical earthquakes in the same region with similar macroseismic intensity. The number of significant effects (either ground deformation or hydrological anomalies) versus their minimum distance from the causative fault have been statistically analyzed, finding characteristic relationships.

  • TERRITORIAL IDENTITY and ADMINISTRATIVE ISOLATION: the CASE of "IMPERFECT DISTRICTS" in SOUTHERN ITALY Astrid PELLICANO University of Naples, “Federico II”, Italy
    TERRITORIAL IDENTITY AND ADMINISTRATIVE ISOLATION: THE CASE OF "IMPERFECT DISTRICTS" IN SOUTHERN ITALY Astrid PELLICANO University of Naples, “Federico II”, Italy 1. The "imperfect districts" Ever since the Unity of Italy, some administrative districts in Italian Mezzogiorno (Terra di Lavoro, Benevento, Isernia, Campobasso, L’Aquila) have undergone a series of boundary transformations. Due to main institutional transformations (the Unity of Italy, the Fascist regime, the reconstruction after World War II, the advent of special statutes for some regions) these territories have been affected by profound administrative changes. The different transformations were driven either by ideological or functional motivations, and they have often caused the loss of socio-cultural identities in local communities. This issue mirrors political and administrative aspects, and also the questions of identification between groups and territory, i.e. the mechanisms used by a community to develop a sense of identity. In this analysis, the so-called 'imperfect districts' define such provincial bodies that in given historical moments have undergone significant alterations in boundaries and organizations; therefore, one can possibly assume that also their identity structures have been affected. One of the most significant cases is Terra di Lavoro. Back in the middle of the nineteenth century it had a notable extension and it featured important towns as Cassino, Gaeta, Capua, Caserta, Aversa, Pozzuoli and Sorrento (Fondi, 1977). Its slow transformation began with the Unity: in order to favor the creation of a new province for Benevento (a province that was created from nothing, after eight centuries of papal administration on the town and its surrounding areas), the central government stripped the area of Piedimonte D'Alife (Sannio Alifano) which was split among the province of Isernia (Molise) and Benevento.

Horace was born in Basilicata, in Venosa Little discussed for the next 1000 years until 17th century when wines from Melfi were mentioned. Melfi is on the border of Campania and Puglia 1 2/13/2020 More Recent History Melfi mentioned in the 19th Century as the hub of Lucan viticulture During the 20th century, other areas were also mentioned Some grape varieties from different areas in Italy arrived after Italian Unification Yet Basilicata remained largely isolated from other regions Vulture became an important area. Volcano last exploded 40,000 years ago Most wines were consumed locally and were ready to drink wines not made for long aging. Basilicata was a poor region and sparsely populated as well. Emigration hasn’t help either and continues to this day Main industry is tourism and agriculture Geography Mountainous region (47%) The three main peaks dotted across the region are Monte Pollino at 2238m (7375ft), Monte Sirino at 2005m (6578ft) and the extinct volcano Monte Vulture at 1326m (4350ft).

  • Southern Italy Molise Campania
    Southern Italy Molise The small, mountainous region of Molise to the south of Abruzzo produces small amounts of wine. Most produced by co-operatives, and less than 5% of the region’s production is at the DOC level. Only three DOCs exist in Molise: Biferno, Molise and Pentro di Isernia. Biferno DOC is the most important, producing reds and rosatos from a blend of Montepulciano and Aglianico. White wines are based on Trebbiano. Campania Less than 10% of the region’s wines are at DOC level In the coastal Massico region in northern Campania the Falerno del Massico DOC. are located. Soils are volcanic tufa. On the lower mountain slopes, red wines are produced Aglianico and Piedrosso and the white Falanghina, Greco, and Fiano comprise a majority of the Campanian DOC wines. The tannic, high-acid Aglianico shares a structural similarity with Sangiovese and Nebbiolo although it has more black fruit characteristics. And has the potential to produce the longest-lived red wines of Southern Italy. Often blended with the lighter Piedrosso in the blends of Falerno del Massico DOC, Taurasi DOCG The wines are produced in the inland area near Avellino. Produced from Aglianico (minimum 85%) Taurasi wines must be aged a minimum of 3 years prior to release, with 1 year in wood. The aging requirement increases to 4 years in wood for riserva wines Aglianico del Taburno DOCG. Produced near the city of Benevento Requires a minimum of 85% Aglianico varietal. Aged 2years in oak (3 yrs for riserva) Fiano di Avellino DOCG wines are produced in a number of communes west of the Taurasi zone, from a minimum 85% of the Fiano grape with the remaining 15% being made up from Coda di Volpe & Trebbiano Greco di Tufo DOCG North of the Fiano di Avellino district at higher altitudes Greco,is a light but intensely aromatic grape and the wine comprises a minimum 85% of the varietal The acidic Coda di Volpe comprises the remainder.

  • Il Lago Di Guardialfiera – Fortore Molisano
    IL LAGO DI GUARDIALFIERA – FORTORE MOLISANO Uno sguardo sul territorio L'area vasta n 2 "Lago di Guardialfiera-Fortore Molisano" comprende i territori dei seguenti Comuni: Bonefro, Casacalenda, Colletorto, Guardialfiera, Larino, Lupara, Montelongo, Montorio, Morrone del Sannio, Provvidenti, Rotello, S. Croce di Magliano, S. Giuliano di Puglia e Ururi. Essa riguarda ad Ovest parte del medio-basso bacino del fiume Biferno, al centro e l'alta e media valle del Torrente Cigno (a sua volta tributario di destra del Biferno), ad Est alcuni bacini imbriferi di affluenti del F. Fortore quali Vallone S. Maria, Cavorello e Tona nonché l'alta valle del torrente Saccione direttamente tributario dell'Adriatico. Trattasi quindi di un territorio posto a scavalco tra due elementi fisici ben evidenti: le vallate dei fiumi Biferno e Fortore, prima che questi attraversino i terreni del “Basso Molise”. L'andamento preferenziale di detti corsi fluviali è da Sud-Ovest verso Nord-Est, perpendicolare cioè alla catena Appenninica. In tale ambito domina come elemento fisico il lago di Guardialfiera che da qualche decennio ha trasformato decisamente il paesaggio compreso tra l'omonima cittadina e quelle di Larino e Casacalenda. Lungo le vallate principali si snodano anche le maggiori arterie di collegamento, decisamente più agevoli e veloci rispetto alle rotabili da percorrere per raggiungere, da queste i citati centri abitati, per lo più, edificati sulle creste dei caratteristici rilievi dominanti le anzidette vallate. In realtà è proprio questa caratteristica che vede nella condizione morfologica un elemento affascinante dal punto di vista paesaggistico, ma decisamente penalizzante ai fini della completa e comoda fruibilità territoriale.
