  • Cliffs and Quarries in the Eastern Coast of the Favignana Island (Sicily, Italy)
    Research & development Cliffs and quarries in the eastern coast of the Favignana island (Sicily, Italy) Favignana Island (Sicily, Italy) is a historical and environmental attraction site frequented by tourists especially during the long warm season of the year. Over several centuries the sea cliffs constituted by calcareous sandstone outcropping in the east side of the island have been exploited for the production of building stone. Currently the quarries used for the rock extraction as well as the natural cliffs are undergoing extensive erosional and gravitational processes. Besides putting at risk the safety of the people attending the area, the widespread rock falls are likely to threaten sites of great historical and anthropological value that, once destroyed, can no longer be reconstructed. The rock mass quality assessment and slope displacements monitoring of cliffs were conducted with the aim of identifying the most active areas and providing support to the local authorities in the implementation of effective and sustainable mitigation measures. If adequate measures are taken in the future, operators and users of the tourist circuit will have the opportunity to enjoy these amazing sites with a lower landslide risk DOI 10.12910/EAI2015-071 n L. Falconi, A. Peloso, A. Screpanti, A. Tatì, V. Verrubbi Introduction Sea cliffs often constitute environmental monuments of rare erosion rate can reach several decimeters per year [1]. beauty. Notwithstanding an apparent imperturbability, Although these processes are not the most dangerous these massive erosive landforms are subject to continuous landslide events, their magnitude in terms of volume and evolution due to the action of gravity and aggressive velocity of the paroxysmal phase may constitute a real exogenous agents.
