The aquifers of the Umbria-Marche Adriatic region : relationships between structural setting and groundwater chemistry
A hypothesis on the hydrogeochemical evolution of the groundwater present in the Apennine limestones, Mio-Pliocene terrigenous deposits and alluvial plain aquifers of the Adriatic-Umbria-Marche area is discussed in this paper. The mineralised
The Neogene-Quaternary, Apenninic deformation severely affected the central-southern side of the Po Plain subsurface and western side of the northern Adriatic Sea, and is known to have generated four asymmetric structural arcs, hundreds of Km long
, running from W to E, namely : Turin Hill-Monferrato-Langhe-Maritime Alps (arc 1), Emilia Romagna-Marche (arc 2), Ferrara (arc 3) and Adriatic sea (arc 4). The arcs are the results of a westward movement of autochthonous crustal blocks pushed from ESE-SE
Biocenotical ecozonation in Mediterranean karst of W. Dinaric Alps, Adriatic islands, and sea bottoms
The insular mounts and some maritime Dinaric Alps at E. Adriatic present a complete Mediterranean altitudinal zonation, from the apical Acromediterranean up to warmest Inframediterranean belts. A correlated submarine horizontal zonation from Thermo
-to Submediterranean benthic vegetation exists also in Adriatic bottoms. Four different types of coastal zonations are registered: widespread mesic of E. Adriatic, xeric one in dry pelagic isles, humid one in SE. coast, and a special stormy one in NE. coast exposed
The Apenninic foreland shows two distinct structural signatures comparing the central Adriatic Sea and the Puglia region, located northward and southward respectively along strike in the foreland. - (MR)
breakdown of organic matter. By using the magnetic parameters as indicators of paleoredox conditions the AA. compare the results with cores collected in the central and southern Adriatic Sea at different water depths. The formation of the Adriatic Deep Water
Middle-Late Pleistocene evolution of the Adriatic coastline of Southern Apulia (Italy) in response to relative sea-level changes
The Adriatic coastal area stretching from Monopoli to Brindisi in Apulia is characterised by landforms and marine/coastal deposits of Middle-Upper Pleistocene age. An E-W striking fault system, roughly corresponding to the geographic “Soglia
The Tremiti Islands archipelago, located north of Gargano promontory's coast, is part of a complex geological area within the Adriatic basin, facing the junction between central and southern Apennines. This area is well known for Neogenic-Quaternary
stratigraphic, tectonic and seismologic aspects and is crucial for the definition of Late Quaternary Adriatic basin evolution. This work gives a contribution of geomorphological data concerning the inner continental shelf around the islands. - (NF)

The author deals with the complexity of minority and border issues that make up the problem of studying contact areas in the upper Adriatic. The nexus of these issues is under the simultaneous influence of various factors contributing
to the formation of different phenomenon typologies within the social dominance-minority relation, comprised of the situation of border national minority, territorial or regional minority and urban minority. Upper Adriatic has once again proven to be a most

The coastal scenery of the Northeastern Adriatic sea is widely interested by caves and related coastal features, which are developed in correspondence of geological weaknesses of sea cliffs. We present the preliminary surveying of five partially

The local road connecting has an important meaning for the survival and development of the little Adriatic islands. Some of realised road connections between the main points of these islands signify the importance of such a kind of traffic

change in a period of forty-seven years. It is focused to investigate the reasons for the changes of mean sea level and its influencing factors in north Adriatic Sea. Results on the analysis of time series of mean sea level and factors are illustrated
The aim of AA’ investigations was to explore the evolution of loess platform and the landforms on Susak Island in Kvarner Bay, North Adriatic basin. Special emphasis was put on the role of tectonic movements in the landscape evolution of the island
