Man-induced changes in urban geomorphology : the historic centre of Bologna (Italy)

Auteur :
GIORGI, G.

Description :
The city of Bologna has been continuously inhabited for about three thousand years, though there have been phases of retreat and subsequent reoccupation. The urbanisation works over the years modified the territory on which the inhabited centre rose up. In particular a continual accumulation of rubble determined the raising of the original level that Bologna was built on. Comparison between the old and actual ground levels permitted identification of the areas in which anthropic intervention most significantly altered the morphology. - (NF)
