Description :
The study synthesises the analysis of those data relevant to the variation registred in the Italian glaciers during glaciological surveys carried out by the Italian Glaciological Committee between 1980 and 1999. The last twenty years of the 20th century were characterized by a phase of general retreat of the glaciers, that followed an advancement phase that took place in the 70s and in the early 80s. The data matrix, which is largely incomplete, includes 335 glaciers. - (NF)
