  • Innovative Integration of UAV and Geophysics Techniques for Monitoring Natural Arches in Malta and Gozo: the Case Study of Wied Il-Mielah (Gozo)

(1)Department of Geosciences, University of Malta, (2) Department of Earth Sciences, University of Rome Sapienza, (3) ENEA - Casaccia Research Centre The geomorphological features of natural arches make these structures important tourist attractions worldwide but, at the same time, they are exposed to rapid erosive processes induced by wind and sea waves. The Maltese archipelago (Central Mediterranean Sea) hosts a great number of natural rock arches. On the 8th March 2017, a natural arch known as Azure Window (Fig.1) collapsed into the sea, at around 8:30 AM UTC (9:30 AM local time) (Fig.2), leaving no trace above the waterline (Galea P. et al., 2018). The collapse of the Azure Window, which was an iconic feature of the island of Gozo, motivated the need to characterise this type of natural structures and evaluate the risk of collapse to ensure the safety of visitors to the sites.

The Blue Hole (Dwejra, Gozo) The Blue Hole at Dwejra, Gozo is one of the most iconic dive spots on the Maltese Islands. You have the famous Azure Window in the background and large coral caves right next door. This place was also used as a set for the popular TV series Game of Thrones. 2. The Madonna Statue (?irkewwa) The Madonna Statue in ?irkewwa was placed there by a local dive club many years ago.

It aims to establish management plans or legal provisions for the management of all terrestrial Natura 2000 sites in the Maltese Islands, and to increase awareness of the Natura 2000 network amongst the general public and stakeholders. The Project started in October 2012 and ended in March 2014. It is considered a milestone in the protection of Malta’s rural environment and undertakes necessary actions required in management planning for the 34 terrestrial Natura 2000 sites: 27 terrestrial Special Areas of Conservation (SAC) and 7 Special Protection Areas (SPAs). The Project involved gathering information, carrying out surveys, defining Conservation Objectives and identifying management measures with intensive stakeholder involvement. These management plans are not intended to restrain recreational or other economic activities within the sites, but rather to support sustainability of Malta’s natural resources with the involvement of stakeholders.
