Un Progetto Europeo Per La Lotta Alla R Territorio: Conoscere per gestire e tutelare Progetto pilota per contrastare fenomeni di siccità e desertificazione nel territorio della Regione Piemonte R La scarsità d'acqua descrive una situazione di squilibrio idrico a lungo termine, dove la domanda d'acqua supera il livello delle risorse idriche disponibili. Solitamente tale situazione emerge in settori con scarsa disponibilità d’acqua o pioggia, ma può anche verificarsi in regioni con alti livelli di consumo a scopo potabile agricolo o industriale. Inoltre, lo squilibrio idrico può inficiare la qualità delle acque, generando ulteriori zone colpite da scarsità d'acqua in quanto essaE risulta inadatta al consumo. La scarsità d'acqua è un fenomeno causato dall’uomo .

  • Case Study of Genoa (Italy)
    Unità di progetto Piano Urbano della Mobilità e Trasporti email:[email protected] Integration and regulatory structures in public transport GENOA’S CASE STUDY PROPOSAL GENOA, MAY 2003 1) General information on the case study “Brief description of the case studies” - General statistics on the case study: Brief description of the metropolitan city of Genoa The city lies mainly on a 30 km long and narrow coastal plain extending through few narrow valleys (along rivers of torrential character) into the western steep slopes (reaching 1200 m high) of the Apennine Mountains. The transport system in the city of Genoa is strongly influenced by the complex orography of the region, a narrow territory between the mountain and the sea; therefore the traffic is forced to flow through limited routes across densely populated areas, with just two relevant traffic infrastructures connecting the eastern and the western areas of the city: the “sopraelevata” and the “pedemontana”, respectively built long the coastline and halfway up the hill. Area size and population: - The urban core area is only 28 Km2 and in this live 284.287 inhabitants - The agglomeration area has an extension of 239 Km2 and in this live 621.780 inhabitants - The total area has a population of 893.259 inhabitants with a total area of 1.836 Km2 • Public transport usage In the Council area is estimate a total mobility in a day of 1.800.000 trips, with a mobility index of 3 trips/inhabitants. In the follow scheme is represented the total flux of the mobility (public and private) in the total area which include the all agglomeration area.

CARATTERIZZAZIONE DEL BACINO 1.1 Inquadramento geografico e definizione del bacino idrografico Il Fiume Scrivia è uno dei più importanti corsi d’acqua genovesi del versante padano; esso nasce dalla confluenza dei torrenti Laccio e Pentemina presso l’abitato di Montoggio. In territorio ligure, la sua asta principale ha una lunghezza di circa 31,8 Km e il suo bacino idrografico copre approssimativamente una superficie di 298 Km2. Il corso d’acqua ha un andamento meandriforme, in alcuni casi incassato in una stretta valle a V, ad esempio a nord di Busalla. In altri casi fluisce in ampie piane alluvionali, come presso Casella. La direzione di scorrimento è circa N-S lungo tutto il tratto ligure, tranne che nella parte iniziale fino a Montoggio. In sponda destra gli affluenti maggiori sono i torrenti Brevenna, Seminella e Vobbia, mentre quelli in sponda sinistra sono il torrente Laitona e il rio Busalletta.

RESUME Cette note donne pour la première fois une synthèse des conditions hydrogéologiques de la Plaine du Pô (Italie du Nord) : en effet les études entreprises jusqu'à présent ne concernaient que des secteurs très limités. Un programme de recherche, organisé et financé par l'Institut de Recherche sur les Eaux du Conseil National des Recherches et réalisé avec la collaboration des Instituts de Géologie de la région du Pô, a permis d'étudier les aspects hydrogéologiques de vastes unités territoriales de la Plaine. Sur la base d'environ 10 000 coupes stratigraphiques de puits d'eau ainsi que des données hydrauliques et chimiques de 21 000 autres puits il a été possible d'arriver à une evaluation approximative satisfaisante des conditions structurelles des aquifères, qui se trouvent presque exclusivement dans les dépôts continentaux du Quaternaire (dépôts rnorainiques, fluviatiles et fluvio-glaciaires). La Plaine du Pô est en effet un grand bassin subsidant et qui a été caractérisé au Quaternaire par une grande vitesse de dépôt (épaisseur moyenne de.800 m); il est limité au Nord et à l'Ouest par les Alpes, au Sud par les Apennins et à l'Est par la Mer Adriatique.

THE LowER SCRIVIA RIVER CASE STUDY (NW ITALY) ANDREA MANDARINO1, MICHAEL MAERKER2 & MARCO FIRPO1 1 Department of Earth, Environment and Life Sciences, University of Genova, Italy. 2 Department of Earth and Environment Sciences, University of Pavia, Italy. ABSTRACT In this research, we present the lower Scrivia River planform changes occurred from 1878 to 2016. Furthermore, we illustrate the channelization-works development and the land-use changes registered close to the riverbed after the 1950s. The Scrivia River is among the most relevant right-bank tributar- ies of the Po River; it is about 90 km long and origins from the Ligurian-Piedmontese Appennines. The study reach is about 16 km long, close to the Po River, and generally shows a single-thread, sinuous and deep-incised channel. Nowadays the lower Scrivia River presents many bank retreat processes that involve surrounding areas, creating serious management issues. The aim of this research is to outline in detail the active-channel morphological evolution over the last 100–150 years, and char- acterize channelization and riverscape changes, with a specific focus on the occupation of the areas of fluvial pertinence. A quantitative multi-temporal analysis supported by field surveys and based on historical maps, aerial photographs and satellite images was performed in a GIS environment through automated and semi-automated procedures. The active channel experienced a well-defined sequence of morphological evolutionary phases.

  • Linee Generali Di Assetto Idrogeologico E Quadro Degli Interventi Bacino Del Trebbia
    LINEE GENERALI DI ASSETTO IDROGEOLOGICO E QUADRO DEGLI INTERVENTI BACINO DEL TREBBIA Linee generali di assetto idraulico e idrogeologico nel bacino del Trebbia 25. Linee generali di assetto idraulico e idrogeologico nel bacino del Trebbia 25.1 Caratteristiche generali 25.1.1 Inquadramento fisico e idrografico Il bacino del Trebbia ha una superficie complessiva di circa 1.070 km2 (1,5% della superficie complessiva del bacino del Po), di cui gran parte in ambito collinare-montano (86%). È situato in destra Po, tra i bacini del Tidone e dello Staffora a est, del Nure a ovest, dello Scrivia a sud-est, del Taro a sud-ovest e dello Sturla a sud. Il fiume Trebbia nasce dal monte S. Lazzaro nell’Appennino Ligure e confluisce nel Po, poco a ovest di Piacenza, dopo un percorso di circa 116 km. Lungo lo spartiacque a sud si hanno i monti Penna (1.735 m s.m.) e Maggiorasca (1.799 m s.m.), a est il monte Cavalmurone (1.670 m s.m.) e a ovest il monte Crociglia (1.578 m s.m.). Riceve numerosi affluenti fra cui il più importante è il torrente Aveto, lungo circa 30 km, con un elevato contributo idrico per l’alta piovosità sul suo bacino, di superficie circa pari a 257 km2. Altri affluenti di una certa importanza sono i torrenti Bobbio, Perino e Dorba. L’asta principale del Trebbia è suddivisibile in due tratti distinti per caratteristiche morfologiche, morfometriche e per comportamento idraulico: il tratto montano che si sviluppa dalla sorgente fino a Rivergaro, per una lunghezza di circa 95 km, e il tratto di pianura, con alveotipo tipicamente pluricursale, fino alla confluenza in Po.
