Zoologia, Università degli Studi “Federico II”, via mezzocannone,8-80134 Napoli, Italy. 2Istituto di Gestione della Fauna, via Mezzocannone,8.tel/fax 081/2535141 –Napoli, Italy. Accepted 24 June, 2009 The metropolitan Park of Naples hills (Italy) was instituted by the regional law 17/2003 with the aim of the green area’s safeguard of the city hills. However, in consequence of the waste emergency in the Campanian region, the Italian government decided the opening of a dump in Chiaiano, a quarter located inside the Park. Through the utilization of the birds as bioindicators, we studied the environmental quality of the whole area, correlating the avifaunal indices to some landscape indices. The results show, generally, that the various areas of the park were constituted from a fragmented landscape and not many mature birds communities. The dump site, called Chiaiano wood, was not so different from other areas of the park because of a similar landscape, formed from old chestnut coppices alternated to cultivation and buildings. This is an important nesting site for some predators, as Falco peregrinus and Falco tinnunculus and of some Chiroptera. This is why the dump might cause the lost of rocky habitats in the Chiaiano wood with a remarkable impact on the ecosystem. Key words: Naples hills, birds, landscape, dump, destruction of rocky habitat.

RÉSUMÉ DES CARACTÉRISTIQUES NATURELLES Le Parc national du Cilento, d’une superficie de 181 041 hectares, est situé au centre-sud de l’Italie, dans la région de Campanie, province de Salerne. Vingt zones centrales couvrent ensemble 26 000 hectares (c’est-à-dire 14%) et le reste de la superficie se partage entre la zone tampon (50 000 hectares) et la zone de transition (105 000 hectares). Cilento se trouve dans la province biogéographique de végétation sclérophylle méditerranéenne. La région est caractérisée par des montagnes, des vallées et une zone littorale. Elle est limitée au nord et à l’est par le Vallo di Diano et, à l’ouest et au sud par le littoral de la mer Tyrrhénienne. Le relief est le résultat de la collision de plaques tectoniques, de la formation de montagnes et de l’érosion fluviale et marine. À l’est et au nord se trouvent les montagnes les plus hautes, composées de calcaires et de dolomites stratifiées. On y trouve le mont Alberni (1742 m), le mont Cocuzzo (1411 m), le mont Motola (1700 m) et le mont Cervati (1898 m).

  • Le Opportunità Di Fruizione Turistica Il Parco Nazionale Del Cilento E Vallo
    Le opportunità di fruizione turistica Il Parco Nazionale del Cilento e Vallo di Diano- Geopark- è dotato di una rete sentieristica di circa 1.800 km, estesa in maniera omogenea su tutta la superficie del parco e delle aree contigue. Recentemente è stata anche pubblicata, a cura del parco, la cartografia completa di tutta la rete sentieristica costituita da 10 tavole in scala 1:25.000. Essa costituisce una fitta rete che si sviluppa attorno ai due principali sentieri del Parco, uno costiero l’altro interno, su itinerari molto vari tra loro che rispecchiano la varietà morfologica, naturalistica e paesaggistica del territorio. Il principale sentiero costiero, denominato Trans Parco Costiero (TPC), permette di percorrere l’intero tratto di costa rientrante nel territorio del Parco che va da Agropoli alla foce del Bussento. Esso attraversa tratti di costa incontaminata, con bassissima densità abitativa, a tratti caratterizzati dalla forte presenza di attività umane legate soprattutto alle attività turistiche dei principali centri abitati. Il principale sentiero interno altro non è che un tratto del Sentiero Italia (SI), ossia il sentiero che percorre l’intero territorio nazionale dalla catena alpina sino alle isole maggiori. Esso si sviluppa quasi totalmente in ambito montano attraversando quelli che sono i principali rilievi carbinatici del parco ossia: i monti Alburni ed il massiccio del monte Cervati. Tra queste due direttrici principali, grosso modo con andamento NW-SE, si intreccia la fitta maglia dei sentieri che permette di accedere a quelli che sono i principali geositi del parco. Alcuni di essi (monte Cervati, gola del Sammaro, monte della Stella) il parco ha provveduto recentemente a renderli maggiormente accessibili realizzandovi opere accessorie quali: passerelle e staccionate in legno, gradini, livellamento del piano di calpestio, panche ed aree sosta, cartellonistica informativa e divulgativa.

(iii) Consultations: 12 external reviewers. (iv) Field Visit: J. Marsh, April, 1998. 2. SUMMARY OF NATURAL VALUES The site, comprising 181,041 ha. is located in central-southern Italy, in the Campania region, and Salerno Province. Of this total size 20 core zones make up 26,000ha (i.e. 14%) with the remainder being in the buffer zone (50,000ha) and transitional zone (105,000h) categories. Cilento is in the Mediterranean Sclerophyll biogeographical province. The area is characterised by mountains, valleys and coast. It is bounded on the north and east by the Vallo di Diano, and on the west and south by the coast and Tyrrhenian Sea. The relief results from the collision of tectonic plates, mountain building, and fluvial and marine erosion. In the east and north are the highest mountains, composed of limestone with stratified dolomites. They include Mount Alberni (1742m), Mount Cocuzzo (1411m), Mount Motola (1700m), and Mount Cervati (1898m). This area is separated from the western region by several river valleys, notably that of the River Calore. In the western area, the highest massif is Mount Sacro or Gelbison (1705m), composed of limestone, quartz, sandstone, conglomerate and clay.

  • First Circular
    Introduction Cilento and Vallo di Diano Geopark has the honor of hosting the 12th European Geoparks Conference (fig. 1), when the global development strategies of the Earth Sciences assume an important role in the world. The geohazards and climate change hardly affect all human activities and can condition strongly humanity future. Infact, life, property, economic and financial losses due to natural hazards, and the impact of disasters on society, have both increased dramatically over the last couple of decades. Scientists ‐ both physical and social‐, policy makers, insurance companies, disaster managers, and the public themselves, have different ways for understanding and studying natural geo‐hazards. This conference aims to: 1. verify how Geoparks can and will focuse the scientific knowledge on these phenomena in the academic community; 2. understand how the Geoparks address these issues in the educational system; 3. disseminate the role of Geoparks on the public awareness and sustainable use of natural resources.

  • Parco Nazionale Del Cilento E Vallo Di Diano
    Parco Nazionale del Cilento e Vallo di Diano Secondo in Italia per estensione, il Parco Nazionale del Cilento e Vallo di Diano si caratterizza per l’eterogeneità del territorio e la grande ricchezza di emergenze storiche e culturali. Basti pensare ai siti archeologici di Paestum e Velia e la Certosa di Padula, compresi dall’UNESCO nella lista dei beni patrimonio dell’umanità. Il territorio del Parco si contraddistingue anche per la sua natura carsica e quindi per la particolare ricchezza di grotte sia costiere sia interne come quelle di Castelcivita, lunghe quasi 5 km, o quelle di Pertosa, attraversate da un fiume sotterraneo e alle quali si può accedere per un tratto solo su grandi zattere. Anche la fauna del Parco è molto diversificata in relazione alla varietà degli ambienti, con la presenza di specie di grande valore naturalistico. Sulle rupi d’alta quota si possono trovare l’aquila reale e le sue prede d’elezione, la coturnice e la lepre appenninica, ormai estinte nel resto della Campania. Anche altri rapaci popolano il Parco come il falco pellegrino, il lanario, il corvo imperiale e il raro astore. Nei corsi d’acqua invece dominano le lontre: qui si trova una delle popolazioni più abbondanti d’Italia. Nonostante la ricca fauna, il simbolo del Parco è però la Primula di Palinuro, una specie paleoendemica a diffusione estremamente localizzata, a testimoniare l’importanza del popolamento floristico del Parco, costituito da circa 1800 specie diverse di piante autoctone spontanee, di cui circa il 10% è endemico o comunque raro. IL TURISMO SOCIALE NEL PARCO Rete dei sentieri natura per persone con difficoltà Il progetto ha avuto come obiettivo l’ampliamento dell’accessibilità in alcune aree di elevato pregio naturalistico attraverso la realizzazione di percorsi, spazi e supporti tecnici destinati a favorirne la fruizione.
