A Hydrographic Approach to the Alps

NORTH SEA] BASIC SYSTEM ' • HIS is the only Basic System whose watershed does not penetrate beyond the Alps, so it is immaterial whether it be traced·from W. to E. as [Adriatic .w. North Sea], or from E. toW. as [North Sea . w. Adriatic]. The Basic Watershed, which also answers to the title [Po ~ w. Rhine], is short arid for purposes of practical convenience scarcely requires subdivision, but the distinction between the Aar basin (actually Reuss, and Limmat) and that of the Rhine itself, is of too great significance to be overlooked, to say nothing of the magnitude and importance of the Major Branch System involved. This gives two Basic Sections of very unequal dimensions, but the ., Alps being of natural origin cannot be expected to fall into more or less equal com partments. Two rather less unbalanced sections could be obtained by differentiating Ticino.- and Adda-drainage on the Po-side, but this would exhibit both hydrographic and Alpine inferiority.

Bumble Bees of the Susa Valley (Hymenoptera Apidae)
Bulletin of Insectology 63 (1): 137-152, 2010 ISSN 1721-8861 Bumble bees of the Susa Valley (Hymenoptera Apidae) Aulo MANINO, Augusto PATETTA, Giulia BOGLIETTI, Marco PORPORATO Di.Va.P.R.A. - Entomologia e Zoologia applicate all’Ambiente “Carlo Vidano”, Università di Torino, Grugliasco, Italy Abstract A survey of bumble bees (Bombus Latreille) of the Susa Valley was conducted at 124 locations between 340 and 3,130 m a.s.l. representative of the whole territory, which lies within the Cottian Central Alps, the Northern Cottian Alps, and the South-eastern Graian Alps. Altogether 1,102 specimens were collected and determined (180 queens, 227 males, and 695 workers) belonging to 30 species - two of which are represented by two subspecies - which account for 70% of those known in Italy, demonstrating the particular value of the area examined with regard to environmental quality and biodiversity. Bombus soroeensis (F.), Bombus me- somelas Gerstaecker, Bombus ruderarius (Mueller), Bombus monticola Smith, Bombus pratorum (L.), Bombus lucorum (L.), Bombus terrestris (L.), and Bombus lapidarius (L.) can be considered predominant, each one representing more than 5% of the collected specimens, 12 species are rather common (1-5% of specimens) and the remaining nine rare (less than 1%). A list of col- lected specimens with collection localities and dates is provided. To illustrate more clearly the altitudinal distribution of the dif- ferent species, the capture locations were grouped by altitude. 83.5% of the samples is also provided with data on the plant on which they were collected, comprising a total of 52 plant genera within 20 plant families. -
Susa Gorge: a Demodulation Reservoir for Pont Ventoux Hydro Power Plant1
SUSA GORGE: A DEMODULATION RESERVOIR FOR PONT VENTOUX HYDRO POWER PLANT1 Ezio Baldovin Dr. Eng. Geotecna Progetti – Consulting Engineers – Milano Nicola Brizzo Dr. Eng. Iride Energia – Torino ITALY 1. INTRODUCTION Iride Energia S.p.A. (once A.E.M. of Turin S.p.A.) has completed the construction of the new Pont Ventoux-Susa Hydro Power and Pump Plant, now in phase of final acceptance. Located in High Susa Valley, it will substitute two old flowing plants built in 1910 and 1923, doubling the production of electric energy with diurnal operation of the turbines and night repumping of the water. The installed power is 150 MW and the foreseen production is bigger than 400 GWh/year. 1 Gorge de Susa: un réservoir de démodulation pour l’Aménagement hydroélectrique de Pont Ventoux 2. THE HYDRO POWER PLANT The water is diverted at Pont Ventoux from Dora Riparia River, tributary of Po River, with a maximum flow discharge of 34 m3/s and, after an average geodetic jump of about 515 m, it is returned to the same river about 1 km upstream of Susa Town (Fig. 1).

1.4 Analisi Idrometrica
Eventi alluvionali in Piemonte ANALISI METEOROLOGICA ED IDROLOGICA 1.4 ANALISI IDROMETRICA Secondo Barbero, Mariella Graziadei (**), Davide Rabuffetti (**), (**) Collaboratore esterno CSI Piemonte 1.4.1 INTRODUZIONE L’intensità, la persistenza e l’ampia distribuzione spaziale delle precipitazioni hanno generato significative onde di piena sui prin- cipali corsi d’acqua del reticolo idrografico piemontese, che hanno raggiunto carattere di eccezionalità in tutto il settore settentriona- le del bacino del Po, interessando tutti gli affluenti di sinistra sino al Ticino. Vengono evidenziati di seguito i dati di maggior interesse acquisiti dalla strumentazione idrometrica della regione Piemonte, integrata con la rete nazionale del Servizio Idrografico e Mareografico, disponibile in tempo reale ai sensi del protocollo d’intesa tra Regione Piemonte e Dipartimento dei Servizi Tecnici Nazionali del 24/4/1996. Figura 1.39 Rete idrografica con l’ubicazione delle stazioni idrometriche Nel successivo capitolo l’eccezionalità dell’evento sarà evidenzia- ta dal confronto con gli eventi storici. Nella Figura 1.39 è rappre- sentato lo sviluppo della rete idrografica piemontese, con l’ubica- zione delle stazioni di misura disponibili in tempo reale durante l’evento. 45 Eventi alluvionali in Piemonte ANALISI METEOROLOGICA ED IDROLOGICA 1.4.2 L’EVENTO DI PIENA LUNGO LA RETE IDROGRAFICA PRINCIPALE L’evento alluvionale appare eccezionale sull’intera asta del Po. A Carignano, grazie ai contributi della parte montana del Po, del Pellice e del Chisone, la portata ha superato i 2000 m3/s. Da segnalare la rarità dell’evento sul Chisone dove il tempo di ritorno del picco ha superato il secolo. Ulteriore notevole contributo alla formazione della piena del Po a monte di Torino è stato quello del Sangone per cui tut- tavia non si dispone di dati misurati. -
Sport, Recreation and Green Space in the European City
Sport, Recreation and Green Space in the European City Edited by Peter Clark, Marjaana Niemi and Jari Niemelä Studia Fennica Historica The Finnish Literature Society (SKS) was founded in 1831 and has, from the very beginning, engaged in publishing operations. It nowadays publishes literature in the fields of ethnology and folkloristics, linguistics, literary research and cultural history. The first volume of the Studia Fennica series appeared in 1933. Since 1992, the series has been divided into three thematic subseries: Ethnologica, Folkloristica and Linguistica. Two additional subseries were formed in 2002, Historica and Litteraria. The subseries Anthropologica was formed in 2007. In addition to its publishing activities, the Finnish Literature Society maintains research activities and infrastructures, an archive containing folklore and literary collections, a research library and promotes Finnish literature abroad.
