The depth of the interface is primarily regulated by the hydrostatic freshwater/saltwater balance, that can be modified by anthropic exploitation of groundwater. To this day, seawater intrusion is considered one of the most extensive and important processes that degrade water quality through an increase in salinity levels up to values exceeding the standard for drinking water and irrigation systems, and endangering the future use of coastal waters. Given the potential hazard of the phenomenon, control wells are set up in order to monitor its evolution, allowing to perform routine in-well analyses aimed at measuring its characteristic parameters.

  • Urban Analysis and Development
    Urban analysis and development studies for the area of the Santa Chiara Hospital in the city of Pisa (Italy): a comparison between different redevelopment options 1 Sergio Mattia*, Alessandra Oppio**, Alessandra Pandolfi*** * Department of Architecture and Planning (Di.A.P.), Via Bonardi n. 3, Politecnico di Milano ([email protected]) ** Department of Building Environment Sciences and Technology (Best), Via Bonardi n. 9, Politecnico di Milano ([email protected]) 1. Introduction This paper represents an excerpt of the theses of the I cycle of the Master in “Real Estate Finance and Development – Part Time” and concerns the projects prepared for the International Town Planning Competition announcement called “Urban redevelopment of the University Hospital of Santa Chiara, facing Piazza dei Miracoli”, promulgated from the Town Council of Pisa (by the Building standards and urban redevelopment office of the Town planning division) in 2007 and developed through an only phase with pre-selection. The Competition terms have been accepted by 40 architecture design groups (of which, 10 have been selected for the following project pre-design stage 2) in order to solve the urban planning “conflict” emerged between the hospital uses of the involved area and the symbol of the Township of Pisa, the Unesco site of Piazza dei Miracoli, on which the Santa Chiara pole overlooks. The essential requirement of the International Competition was the selection of the best design idea on the basis of some fundamental principles, particularly referring to the capability of the scheduled investments to create value: therefore, the primary purpose of the Master theses was to evaluate the extent to which every project meets different levels of economical and financial balance.

  • The Historical Development of the Port of Livorno (Italy) and Its New Port Plan 2010 in Advanced Stage of Elaboration
    The historical development of the port of Livorno (Italy) and its new Port Plan 2010 in advanced stage of elaboration Alberto Noli, University of Rome “La Sapienza”, Faculty of Engineering - DITS, Rome, Italy, [email protected] Paolo De Girolamo, University of L’Aquila, Faculty of Engineering - DISAT, L’Aquila, Italy, [email protected] Roberto Piccini, Livorno Port Authority, Livorno, Italy Claudio Vanni, Livorno Port Authority, Livorno, Italy Andrea Del Corona, Livorno Port Authority, Livorno, Italy Marco Tartaglini, Modimar s.r.l., Abstract The geographical location makes the port of Livorno one of the most important in Italy. The port, in-fact, benefits of an extended network of roads and rails connecting it with the rest of Italy, and central and southern Europe as well. The history of Livorno and of its port is inextricably linked to that of Pisa and Florence, and to the complexity of events that determined the political set-up of the region along several centuries. Looking at the new Port Plan of Livorno has made it necessary an extensive overview of the history of both the port, and of its planning. Keywords: History, Italy, Livorno, Plan, Port. 1. Geographical context The Port of Livorno is the most important port in Tuscany and one of the most important in Italy, as it has a strategic geographical location, and a good inland transportation infrastructure (see Fig.1). In 2008 the Port of Livorno has passed the milestone of 34 million tons handled in total. In 2009, in connection with the serious global recession, the port recorded a decline of 21.3% of traffic.
