In 25 this paper, we conducted a systematic revision of the Troglohyphantes species of the Italian Alps, 26 with a special focus on the Lucifuga complex, including the description of two new species (T. 27 lucifer n. sp. and T. apenninicus n. sp). In addition, we provided new diagnostic drawings of the 28 holotype of T. henroti (Henroti complex) and established three new synonymies within the genus. 29 The molecular analysis of the animal DNA barcode confirms the validity of this method of 30 identification of the Alpine Troglohyphantes and provides additional support for the morphology- 31 based species complexes. Finally, we revised the known distribution range of additional 32 Troglohyphantes species, as well as other poorly known alpine cave-dwelling spiders.

[21 August 2019] * Issued as received, in the language(s) of submission only. GE.19-14504(E) A/HRC/42/NGO/50 Migrants subjected to contemporary forms of slavery in the Italian agricultural sector APG23 would like to express its gratitude to the Special Rapporteur on contemporary forms of slavery, including its causes and consequences, for drawing the attention on the labour and living conditions of migrant workers in the Italian agricultural sector. “Migrant workers all over the world are too often subjected to unethical recruitment processes, indecent work conditions and lack of social protection.”1 In Italy, labour exploitation, including forced labour, predominately affects migrant workers in agriculture, textile production, construction, domestic work,2 food service industry and prostitution. In particular in the Italian South, the standards of living of foreign agricultural labourers are so indecent that many NGOs described their conditions as a modern form of slavery,3 which caused 1500 deaths over the past six years.4 Migrants, many of whom are asylum seekers whose claims have been rejected or whose residency permits have expired, are susceptible to modern slavery due to corrupt recruitment intermediaries (“caporali”) and limited government resources to implement effective strategies against their labour exploitation.

  • Territorial Analysis for the Implementation of Geothermal Heat Pumps in the Province of Cuneo (NW Italy)
    Available online at www.sciencedirect.com ScienceDirect Energy Procedia 78 ( 2015 ) 1159 – 1164 6th International Building Physics Conference, IBPC 2015 Territorial analysis for the implementation of Geothermal Heat Pumps in the Province of Cuneo (NW Italy) Alessandro Casasso, Rajandrea Sethi* Politecnico di Torino – DIATI, corso Duca degli Abruzzi 24, 10129 Torino, Italy Abstract The efficiency of Geothermal Heat Pumps (GHPs) strongly depends on the site-specific parameters of the ground, which should therefore be mapped for the rational planning of shallow geothermal installations. In this paper, a case study is presented for the potentiality assessment of low enthalpy geothermal energy in the Province of Cuneo, a district of 6900 km2 in Piedmont, NW Italy. The available information on the geology, stratigraphy, hydrogeology, climate etc. were processed and mapped, and conclusions were drawn on the geothermal suitability and productivity of different areas of the territory surveyed. © 2015 The Authors.

Introduction Geothermal Heat Pumps (GHPs) are an attractive type of technology for the heating and cooling of buildings, which should be promoted in smart city planning in order to improve the air quality in the urban environment. According to Saner et al. [1], a reduction of up to 90% of CO2 emissions can be achieved, compared to methane boilers.

  • Land Consolidation Associations and the Management of Territories in Harsh Italian Environments: a Review
    resources Review Land Consolidation Associations and the Management of Territories in Harsh Italian Environments: A Review Riccardo Beltramo 1,2, Andrea Rostagno 1 and Alessandro Bonadonna 1,2,* ID 1 Department of Management, University of Turin—School of Management and Economics, Corso Unione Sovietica 218/bis, 10134 Turin, Italy; [email protected] (R.B.); [email protected] (A.R.) 2 NatRisk—Research Centre on Natural Risks in Mountain and Hilly Environments, University of Turin, Largo Paolo Braccini 2, Grugliasco, 10095 Turin, Italy * Correspondence: [email protected] Received: 18 January 2018; Accepted: 9 March 2018; Published: 13 March 2018 Abstract: Land fragmentation is a phenomenon that reduces the mechanical management of agricultural and grazing lands and, consequently, leads to the abandonment of agricultural practices in harsh environments. It puts the agricultural and/or agro-pastoral businesses in a difficult situation as they have small surfaces to manage that do not allow for sufficient profit. Some worldwide land consolidation initiatives have been set up to reduce this phenomenon, such as land funds. In this context, this paper is dedicated to an Italian approach, which can be carried over to other realities, aimed at safeguarding and managing territories in harsh environments. This approach, known as the “Associazione Fondiaria (ASFO)”, which can be roughly translated as “land consolidation association”, consolidates small portions of abandoned land in a functional manner. Indeed, a land consolidation association not only stimulates new entrepreneurial agricultural activities, but is also able to create employment in depressed areas. A SWOT (Strengths, Weaknesses, Opportunities, Threats) analysis was used to evaluate ASFOs, and their peculiarities were discussed.
