Famous for its clean and warm water. White sandy dunes, centuries old junipers sculpted by winds and various kinds of plants typical of the Mediterranean scrub dot the scenery of this beach. The shallow water and sandy bottom, as well as the possibility of finding shade in the Maria Pia pine forest make it a nice place for spending an entire day of relaxation, in a valuable oasis of green.

  • Olbia & Surroundings
    OLBIA & SURROUNDINGS Olbia has 40’000 inhabitants; through its harbour „ Isola Bianca “ and the airport „ Costa Smeralda “ many international routes. The economy is based on fishing, breeding of mussels and food- industry, as tuna-processing. Olbia is also called the “shopping centre of Gallura ”, which is the name of the North-Eastern part of Sardinia. In most cases Olbia is only the arrival and departure point for a holiday in Northern Sardinia. But this town has some nice things to visit, for example C orso Umberto I . In this street, which leads from the harbour to Piazza Margherita, there are several boutiques and shops. In the Piazza, the heart of Olbia, cafés and ice-cream shops are a nice place to have a break. Not far from Olbia there are the beach areas of Pittulongu, Capo Ceraso and Porto Istana. Here visitors can find beautiful beaches and enjoy the marvellous view of the majestic “ island of Tavolara ”, a huge granite rock mountain that stands out 600m over the sea level. Golfo Aranci A long time ago Golfo Aranci was only a small fishermen village. When in the 60s the harbour for ferry boats was built, this place started developing very quickly. Several ferry boat companies (for both goods and passengers-transportation) have their own docks in the harbour of Golfo Aranci. Nowadays, despite other places which seem uninhabited during winter, in Golfo Aranci live about 2’000 people throughout the year. Some of them are fishermen and can be watched while repairing their nets in the harbour. From C apo Figari visitors can enjoy a beautiful view on the Gulf of Olbia and the “island” Tavolara .

Its ancient name, Thatari, was first mentioned in the “Condaghe di San Pietro in Silki”, an ancient register of the monastery (1113). Its territory shows clear traces of the earliest settlers during the late Neolithic Age: Monte d’Accoddi, a sort of imposing ziqqurat, built around 2400 BC, is the most impressive Neolithic site; 170 nuraghi testify to the typical culture which flourished in Sardinia between 1800 BC and 238 BC, whereas remarkable remains give evidence of the Roman presence in the area (238 BC-460/467 AC).

DISTRIBUZIONE DI CAULERPA RACEMOSA NEL GOLFO DELL' ASINARA (SARDEGNA SETTENTRIONALE) DISTRIBUTION OF CAULERPA RACEMOSA IN THE GULF OF ASINARA (NW SARDINIA) Abstract Caulerpa racemosa (Chlorophyta), a non indigenous green alga from the Indo-Pacific, has been detected and mapped in the gulf of Asinara (NW Sardinia, Italy), to a depth of 30 m. The total covered area, mostly on "dead matte ", is 776 ha and the interested coastline amounts to 13 km (44% of the total coastline inve­ stigated). Key-words: Caulerpa racemosa, Chlorophyta, Sardinia. Introduzione Caulerpa racemosa (Fors skill) J Agardh e un'alga verde invasiva d'origine indo­ pacifica comparsa in Italia nel 1993 (Alongi et al.,1993), nel 1994 e stata ritrovata nei golfo di Cagliari (Cossu e Gazaie, 1996) e, nell'invemo del 2002 estata da noi mappata nel golfo dell' Asinara, nel settore compreso fra Porto Torres e Punta Tramontana, entro la linea batimetrica dei 30 metri (Fig. 1). Materiali e metodi C. racemosa e stata individuata da subacquei provvisti di microfono e auricoiare che venivano trainati da un'imbarcazione in prossimita del fondo, comunicando a bordo i dati sulla presenza, profondita, stato, copertura dell'alga. Le verita a mare otte­ nute sono state impiegate per l'analisi spettrale di foto aeree in scala 1:10.000, discri­ minando fondali rocciosi, sabbiosi e a "matte" morta. I dati sono stati implementati su GIS Arc View 3.0a per il calcolo delle superfici interessate e delle rispettive proiezioni sulla costa (De Vaugelas et af., 1998).

  • Relict Forms of a Disappeared Mountain. the Periglacial Deposits in Asinara Island-Sardinia, Italy
    Journal of Environmental and Tourism Analyses Vol. 2. 1 (2014) 19-32 Relict Forms of a Disappeared Mountain. The Periglacial Deposits in Asinara Island-Sardinia, Italy Sergio GINESU1a, Donatella CARBONIb, Pierpaolo CONGIATUc a Department of Science for Nature and Environmental Resources – University of Sassari, Piazza D'Armi, 17, 07100, Sassari, Italy bDepartment of Humanistic and Social Sciences – University of Sassari, Piazza D'Armi, 17, 07100, Sassari, Italy c Asinara National Park, Via Iosto, 7 – 07046, Porto Torres (SS), Italy Abstract: Asinara Island is located in northwestern Sardinia (Italy) and only recently has been divested as a maximum-security prison and returned to nature protection as a National Park with Marine Protected Area along the coastal perimeter. Geologically, the island is formed by a Paleozoic basement in transition between the metamorphic rocks and the Pre-Hercynian granitic batholith of Sardinia. New surveys carried out to reconstruct the recent evolution of the landscape have shown a lot of deposits formed by large blocks of granitoid and anphibolitic rocks representing a favorable situation to produce this material formation in terms of differential erosion in periglaciar environment. Similar morphologies are possible to observe in many places in Sardinia continental hard rocks as effect of the conditions of refreezing periods ("glacial"). These deposits are commonly known as " block streams " or " block fields " and reported for the first time in Italy in 1990 in the central area of the island of Sardinia, about 500 meters above sea level. Their presence in Sardinia is always documented in a range of altitudes not less than 350-400 meters and, in this case for the first time they have been identified in close proximity to the coastline.

This first became possible when, in 1997, the island was no longer used as a prison and the National Park of the Asinara was founded. After just over a year's research from September 2003 to October 2004, the list of collected Neuroptera, from the previously recorded 3 species, has reached about 20, Chrysopa dorsalis Burmeister,1839 (new to Sardinia), Dichochrysa iberica (Navas,1903), and Hemerobius stigma Stephens, 1836 (quite rare and stenotopic in Sardinia) were recognized on the coastal Juniperus formation of Cala Arena. The finding of a small population of Chr. dorsalis is of particular interest as the adult specimens have similar chromatic habitus to Chrysopa regalis, Navas, 1915, of the Iberian Peninsula.

  • Flood Risk Management Plan for the Sardinia Hydrographic District
    Flood Risk Management Plan for the Sardinia Hydrographic District Sara Frongia1, Marco Melis2, Giovanni M. Sechi3 & Roberto Silvano4 1Department of Civil and Environmental Engineering and Architecture, University of Cagliari, Cagliari, Italy, e-mail: [email protected] 2Regional Water District Authority, Cagliari, Italy, e-mail: [email protected] 3Department of Civil Engineering, University of Cagliari, Italy, e-mail: [email protected]. 4Regional Water District Authority, Cagliari, Italy, e-mail: [email protected] Abstract: Following the European Council Floods Directive (2007/60/EC) and the Italian National Legislation (DL n. 49/2010), the Sardinian (Italy) Hydrographic District Authority defined the main directives on the assessment and management of flood risk in related basins. This planning phase is subsequent of a detailed flood risk mapping and consequent identification of flood prone areas. Recent historical events highlighted on this necessity as the Sardinia region was affected by important floods, typical of the Mediterranean area. In December 2004 the territory of Eastern Sardinia was the scenario of a massive flood event characterised by 500 mm rainfall in five hours. In October 2008 a storm hit the South-Eastern territory and 350 mm of rain was gauged in less than 3 hours. More recently, in November 2013 the Cleopatra hurricane affected the North East of Sardinia causing huge damage. Following these emergencies and legislation directives, the Sardinian Hydrographic Authority is working on flood risk management plans involving researchers, communities and stakeholders. In this paper we focused on a framework plan to describe the assessment of flood risk management plans and consider some pilot areas to define a decision support tool with priorities in flood mitigation measures.
