Lombardi Progetti internazionali: RISCS, SITECHAR, ECO2 RELAZIONE ATTIVITA’ DI RICERCA SVOLTA Durante il primo anno di Dottorato son state svolte le seguenti attività: ‐ recupero e riorganizzazione dei dati pre‐esistenti dei lavori svolti negli ultimi vent’anni dal laboratorio di Chimica dei Fluidi delDipartimento, riguardo le campagne di prospezioni dei gas del suolo per le specie gassose: CO2, elio, radon e idrocarburi leggeri. ‐ nuove campagne di prospezioni dei gas del suolo in Danimarca (due) e a Fiumicino (tuttora in corso). Per quanto riguarda la prima parte, il lavoro svolto in pratica è stato il recupero di dati sia telematici che cartacei e la loro organizzazione in un unico file excel predisposto in maniera tale da poter essere inserito in ambiente GIS.Per quanto riguarda la seconda parte, la campagna svolta in Danimarca in due periodi dell’anno Differenti (Autunno e Primavera) è stata portata a termine per meglio comprendere le variazionistagionali dell’anidiride carbonica anche in relazioni a differenti ambienti quali: campo coltivato, bosco e brughiera. Il lavoro nell’area di Fiumicino ‐ Isola Sacra, invece, è legato allo scopo finale del mio lavoro di dottorato, ovvero la definizione di una baseline della CO2 per l’Italia. I risultati di questa campagna sono tutt’ora in elaborazione. Maria Battistel XVII ciclo Docente Guida: Prof. M.

Le principali informazioni ottenute sono state, in seguito, georiferite ed inserite, mediante il software ArcGis 9.3 (ESRI), all’interno di una banca dati digitale che in continuo aggiornamento. Grazie alla collaborazione con il laboratorio di geologia del sottosuolo del CNR‐IGAG, è stato possibile accedere ad una banca dati di profili sismici a riflessione e di dati di pozzo resi disponibili dall’ENI. Profili sismici e dati di pozzo, insieme alle altre informazioni recuperate, sono stati importati nel software Petrel 2011.2 (Schlumberger) e predisposti per una futura interpretazione. È stata eseguita anche una campagna di rilevamento geologico – strutturale, di circa due settimane, in un settore dell’area di studio per verificare l’assetto geologico ‐ strutturale di superficie. Infine, allo scopo di ottenere informazioni utili per la comprensione della geologia di sottosuolo e, in particolare, delle caratteristiche del reservoir carbonatico, è stata avviata un’analisi approfondita dei dati di pozzo disponibili (composite logs e rapporti tecnici forniti da ENI) quali, ad esempio, logs geofisici, perdite di circolazione, assorbimenti, prove di strato e carote e prove di strato. Sulla base di questi dati è stato possibile contribuire alla definizione e alla caratterizzazione dei livelli di fratturazione all’interno del reservoir. ‐ Abstract Montegrossi G., Inversi B., Scrocca D., Livani m., Petracchini L.

  • Suitable Habitat Modeling of Prehistoric Antelope-Like Bovid Duboisia Santeng in Java Island in the Early Pleistocene Andriwibowo*
    Preprints (www.preprints.org) | NOT PEER-REVIEWED | Posted: 16 September 2020 doi:10.20944/preprints202009.0355.v1 Suitable Habitat Modeling of Prehistoric Antelope-like Bovid Duboisia Santeng in Java Island in The Early Pleistocene Andriwibowo* Keywords: Abstract Bovid, forest, habitat, model, The migration routes have facilitated the distribution of mammals from south Pleistocene east Asian mainland to the Sundaland including Java island in the early Pleistocene. One of species that has migrated through that route is antelope-like bovid Duboisia santeng. In the present study, the potential distribution areas and the suitable habitats of D. santeng have been projected and modeled. The modeled habitat was a forest river basin sizing 302.91 Ha in the central of Java island. The model has classified and reconstructed the habitat suitability ranged *Email: paleobio2020@gmail from low to high back to Pleistocene. The surrounding areas of forest were .com mostly classified as medium and low related to the limited tree covers. Most *Address: suitable habitats were identified in the middle of forest river basin where the U. o. Indonesia, West Java, Indonesia tree covers were presented. Introduction The adaptation and distribution of prehistoric mammals were favoured by migration routes. Presences of large mammal fossil from Indochinese and Sundaic provinces, which are distinct climatically, floristically, and faunistically support the hypothesis of a continental migration route during the middle and late Pleistocene periods. During the glacial periods, the faunal exchanges were favored by the emersion of a huge continental shelf known as Sundaland. This emerged land connected the South East Asian mainland to Borneo and other Indonesia islands including Java island.

  • Fossil Bovidae from the Malay Archipelago and the Punjab
    FOSSIL BOVIDAE FROM THE MALAY ARCHIPELAGO AND THE PUNJAB by Dr. D. A. HOOIJER (Rijksmuseum van Natuurlijke Historie, Leiden) with pls. I-IX CONTENTS Introduction 1 Order Artiodactyla Owen 8 Family Bovidae Gray 8 Subfamily Bovinae Gill 8 Duboisia santeng (Dubois) 8 Epileptobos groeneveldtii (Dubois) 19 Hemibos triquetricornis Rütimeyer 60 Hemibos acuticornis (Falconer et Cautley) 61 Bubalus palaeokerabau Dubois 62 Bubalus bubalis (L.) subsp 77 Bibos palaesondaicus Dubois 78 Bibos javanicus (d'Alton) subsp 98 Subfamily Caprinae Gill 99 Capricornis sumatraensis (Bechstein) subsp 99 Literature cited 106 Explanation of the plates 11o INTRODUCTION The Bovidae make up a very large portion of the Dubois collection of fossil vertebrates from Java, second only to the Proboscidea in bulk. Before Dubois began his explorations in Java in 1890 we knew very little about the fossil bovids of that island. Martin (1887, p. 61, pl. VII fig. 2) described a horn core as Bison sivalensis Falconer (?); Bison sivalensis Martin has al• ready been placed in the synonymy of Bibos palaesondaicus Dubois by Von Koenigswald (1933, p. 93), which is evidently correct. Pilgrim (in Bron- gersma, 1936, p. 246) considered the horn core in question to belong to a Bibos species closely related to the banteng. Two further horn cores from Java described by Martin (1887, p. 63, pl. VI fig. 4; 1888, p. 114, pl. XII fig. 4) are not sufficiently well preserved to allow of a specific determination, although they probably belong to Bibos palaesondaicus Dubois as well. In a preliminary faunal list Dubois (1891) mentions four bovid species as occurring in the Pleistocene of Java, viz., two living species (the banteng and the water buffalo) and two extinct forms, Anoa spec.

  • Ecology and Extinction of Southeast Asia's Megafauna
    ECOLOGY AND EXTINCTION OF SOUTHEAST ASIA’S MEGAFAUNA JULIEN LOUYS Thesis submitted in fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in the School of Biological, Earth and Environmental Sciences University of New South Wales Sydney, Australia December 2007 THE UNIVERSITY OF NEW SOUTH WALES Thesis/Dissertation Sheet Surname or Family name: Louys First name: Julien Other name/s: Claude Alexandre Abbreviation for degree as given in the University calendar: PhD School: Biological, Earth and Environmental Sciences Faculty: Science Title: Ecology and Extinction of Southeast Asia’s Megafauna Abstract 350 words maximum: (PLEASE TYPE) The Quaternary megafauna of Southeast Asia are among the world’s poorest known. Throughout the Pleistocene, continental collisions, active volcanic systems and fluctuations in sea level have had dramatic effects on the region’s geography, from southern China to Indonesia. Many Southeast Asian megafauna experienced geographical range reduction or complete extinction during that interval. This thesis explores the relative influence of environmental change and human interaction in these extinctions. There is currently no direct evidence to suggest that humans had a negative impact on Southeast Asian megafauna until the Holocene. Rather, extinctions and geographical range reduction experienced by megafauna are likely to have resulted from of loss of suitable habitats, in particular the loss of more open habitats. Environmental change throughout the Pleistocene of Southeast Asia is reconstructed on the basis of discriminant functions analysis of megafauna from twenty-seven Southeast Asian Quaternary sites, as well as Gongwangling, an early Pleistocene hominin site previously interpreted as paleoarctic. The discriminant functions were defined on the basis of species lists drawn from modern Asian nature reserves and national parks, and were analysed using both taxonomic and phylogeny-free variables.

  • The Morphology of Femur As Palaeohabitat Predictor in Insular Bovids
    Bollettino della Società Paleontologica Italiana, 52 (3), 2013, 177-186. Modena The morphology of femur as palaeohabitat predictor in insular bovids Roberto ROZZI & Maria Rita PALOMBO R. Rozzi, Dipartimento di Scienze della Terra, Sapienza Università di Roma, Piazzale A. Moro 5, I-00185 Roma, Italy; [email protected] M.R. Palombo, Dipartimento di Scienze della Terra, Sapienza Università di Roma, Piazzale A. Moro 5, I-00185 Roma, Italy; CNR, Istituto di Geologia ambientale e Geoingegneria, Montelibretti (Roma); [email protected] KEY WORDS - Bovidae, ecological morphology, femur, Pleistocene, Sardinia, Java. ABSTRACT - A variety of methods have been developed with regard to the use of bovid postcranial elements in the functional morphology approach to palaeohabitat prediction. One postcranial element that has proven useful in past habitat reconstructions is the bovid femur. In this study we applied a biometrical method, combined with an eco-morphological analysis, on Nesogoral (Dehaut, 1911) from Sardinia and Duboisia santeng (Dubois, 1891) from Java. Both are insular fossil bovids of similar size but have originated from different ancestors and are believed to inhabit different environments. Measurements of Sardinian and Javanese specimens were processed in comparison with those of the main extant groups of Bovidae in order to predict the preferred habitat category (Forest, Heavy Cover, Light Cover, Open). A principal component analysis (PCA) was carried out to further investigate the structure of the data. This study highlighted the difficulty of inferring palaeohabitats of fossil bovids from the functional morphology of their long bones. In fossil bovids, the assignment of a taxon to a particular category is a “best fit” designation as a number of taxa could have ranged over several habitat types, as has been documented for most of the extant bovids.

  • Biogeography and Migration Routes of Large Mammal Faunas in South±East Asia During the Late Middle Pleistocene: Focus on the Fossil and Extant Faunas from Thailand
    Palaeogeography, Palaeoclimatology, Palaeoecology 168 72001) 337±358 www.elsevier.nl/locate/palaeo Biogeography and migration routes of large mammal faunas in South±East Asia during the Late Middle Pleistocene: focus on the fossil and extant faunas from Thailand C. Tougard* Laboratoire de PaleÂontologie, Institut des Sciences de l'Evolution, Universite Montpellier II, Place E. Bataillon, C.C. 064, 34095 Montpellier cedex 05, France Received 10 November 1999; received in revised form 29 September 2000; accepted for publication 5 October 2000 Abstract Thailand has long held a key position in South±East Asia because of its location at the boundary of the Indochinese and Sundaic provinces, the major biogeographical regions of South±East Asia. These provinces are distinct climatically, ¯oristi- cally and faunistically. The present-day limit between them is located at the Kra Isthmus, in peninsular Thailand. Previous studies of the Javanese large mammal fossil faunas and the recent study of fossil large mammal faunas from Thailand strengthen the hypothesis of a ªcontinentalº migration route 7in contrast with the ªinsularº hypothesis via Taiwan and the Philippines) during the Late Middle/Late Pleistocene period. Thailand was even part of this migration route. During the glacial periods, the faunal exchanges were favored by the emersion of a huge continental shelf called Sundaland 7South±East Asian continental area connected to Borneo and Indonesia islands by land bridges), when the sea level was low. No geological, biogeographical or paleobiogeographical evidence supports the hypothesis of a migration route via Taiwan and the Philippines. Analysis of the extant and Late Middle Pleistocene large mammal faunas 7Carnivora, Primates, Proboscidea and Ungulata) points out the antiquity of the Indochinese and Sundaic provinces.

This Homo erectus fossils, from Ngandong insular divergence sets up a unique regional context for early hominin dispersal, and related sites, have cranial isolation, and extinction. The evidence is reviewed across three Pleistocene cli- capacities reaching 1,250 cc. mate periods. Patterns are discussed in relation to the pulse of global sea-level In 2003, at Liang Bua, on Flores, shifts, as well as regional geo-tectonics, catastrophes, stegodon dispersal, and east of Wallace’s Line, Homo flore- paleogenomics. Several patterns imply evolutionary processes typical of oceanic siensis was defined on the basis of islands. Early hominins apparently responded to changing island conditions for one nearly complete skeleton and a million-and-a-half years, likely becoming extinct during the period in which fragmentary remains of several indi- Homo sapiens colonized the region.
