Le precipitazioni stagionali, da cui principalmente dipendono le risorse idriche di un territorio, sono determinate in primo luogo dalle condizioni climatiche a grande scala, che si possono caratterizzare mediante indici di circolazione atmosferica basati sulla differenza di pressione a livello del mare tra due aree geografiche distinte, denominate centri di azione climatica. In questo studio, con riferimento alla Calabria, è esaminata, mediante analisi di correlazione, la dipendenza tra le precipitazioni invernali e alcuni pattern climatici, identificati tramite l'uso di indici (NAOI, MOI, SOI e EAT). I risultati mostrano buone correlazioni con gli indici NAOI e MOI, evidenti soprattutto nella parte nord-occidentale della Calabria. Meno rilevanti sono invece i risultati ottenuti per l'indice EAT, mentre le precipitazioni non risultano correlate con l'indice SOI. L'analisi composita, effettuata per gli indici NAOI e MOI, evidenzia l'influenza che le fasi estreme di detti indici hanno sulle variazioni delle precipitazioni invernali rispetto alla media a
lungo termine.

Shallow and rapid landslides are often caused by precipitation, especially when the rainfall has exceptional intensity and/or persistence characterized by a series of successive "single rainfall events". "Single event" indicates the sequence of rainy days preceded and followed by null data of rainfall. An event can be composed of either a single day or more consecutive days with rain heights unlike null values.
In the period November 2008 - January 2009, Calabria (Southern Italy) was characterized by diffuse precipitation, causing widespread landslides. Various infrastructures and urban centres were affected, suffering significant damages or destruction. The present work identifies and characterizes each "single rainfall event" for the abovementioned period. In particular, the distributions of accumulated rainfall event and of the daily maximum data have been estimated for each event. Moreover, other historical rainfall events, which produced hydrogeological disasters with losses and deaths in Calabria, have been selected and characterized in a similar way_ October 1951, December 1951, October 1953, November 1959, December 1972 - March 1973, September 2000.
The statistical comparison between the last event and the hystorical ones has shown that the precipitation scenarios in 2008-2009 have been more severe than the historical events when cumulative rainfall is taken into account. On a regional scale, the comparative analysis of landslide events and rainfall characteristics could highlight triggering scenarios of shallow and rapid landslide events.

Nell'analisi dei trend nelle lunghe serie storiche di grandezze climatiche si
riscontrano spesso problemi di disomogeneità e di assenza di dati, che possono
determinare errori dello stesso ordine di grandezza, o talora addirittura maggiori,
dei segnali a lungo termine che l'analisi dei trend si propone di evidenziare. Nel
presente lavoro, le serie pluviometriche di 197 stazioni, presenti sul territorio
calabrese, vengono soggette a test di omogeneità e a tecniche di ricostruzione di
dati mancanti. Le 129 serie alla fine ottenute rappresentano una banca dati
affidabile e attendibile per la valutazione dei trend annui e stagionali delle
precipitazioni in Calabria. I risultati evidenziano un andamento negativo delle
precipitazioni su base annua, ancora più evidente per la stagione invernale.
Analoghi andamenti si registrano, anche se in misura più ridotta, per il numero di
giorni piovosi e per la precipitazione media giornaliera. Trend opposti vengono,
invece, stimati per la stagione estiva, anche se statisticamente significativi solo per
ristrette aree della Calabria.

The paper presents a new methodology for the deterministic assessment of landslide hazard at the regional scale in geologically complex chain areas. The methodology entails site specific geo-mechanical studies, as background of any hazard prediction application, and the creation of a Regional Landslide Manual portraying the geo-mechanical knowledge about the slope conditions across the region. The search in the regional manual of the landslide mechanisms which may correspond to the combination of landslide factors recorded at the local scale results in the hazard prediction. The testing of the methodology in the Daunia Apennines is discussed.

The paper presents the analysis of the mechanism of reactivation of a deep landslide process which involves the western slope of Volturino in the Daunia Apennines (Southern Italy), where tectonized and fissured soils of poor mechanical properties outcrop. The reactivation, which is monitored by piezometers and inclinometers, takes place when the water table is approximately at the ground surface, i.e. during winter. Limit equilibrium back-analyses of the current landslide process, with a pore pressure distribution consistent with the field data, were performed to assess the in situ mobilised strengths and the depth of the sliding body. Drained finite element analyses were then carried out to simulate the reactivation mechanism by modelling the presence of a band of softened material within the slope along with the seasonal variation in seepage conditions. The results of the different analyses tend to confirm the higher instability of deep sliding bodies in the slope.

Abstract
The shear strength regain effect takes place whenever an intermittent landslide on clayey materials occurs. ...
The shear strength regain effect takes place whenever an intermittent landslide on clayey materials occurs. During the rest period, the clay material nearby the sliding surface regains part of its shear strength. The new strength level can overcome the residual shear strength by more than 20%. The more is the rest period, the more is the shear strength regain. A new movement will take place only if the hydraulic conditions will be able to exceed the new level of shear strength. The paper examines closely the shear strength regain phenomenon, analysing the results derived from several dedicated ring shear tests on clayey landslide materials, and deals with some case studies which, taking into account the positive effect of the shear strength regain, provide us a new approach to bet-ter design the remedial works on clayey landslide.

We report laboratory experiments and numerical simulations thereof which
show similar reductions in frictional resistance when fragmentation occurs in dry comminut-
ing granular shear flow, in the absence of any mechanism for reducing friction except that of
grain comminution. These results, together with the ubiquitous occurrence of comminution
in association with low-friction geological phenomena, suggest that fragmentation is both
a sufficient and a necessary condition for low friction in granular shear. In the numerical
simulations a low damping factor was required to generate realistic results. This indicates that
most of the fracture surface energy utilised in comminution is recycled to the system as free
energy, in agreement with experimental data.

Among the peculiarities of karst environment, distinguishing it from any other natural settings, the very limited surface runoff and the slightly defined surface watersheds play a significant role. Notwithstanding such features, even in flat karst areas as is the case for most of Apulia (south-east Italy), the surface hydrographic lines were a very important element in the karst landscape, that greatly controlled location and spreading of the first human settlements in the region. In the centuries, the many interventions carried out by man have caused heavy changes in the original hydrographic network_ swallets have been covered and/or clogged, water lines diverted, and a complex network of artificial channels progressively took the place of the original surface runoff. The artificial channels are still today used to discharge the urban and industrial wastewaters in many areas of the region.
All this situation on the occasion of extreme rainfall determines floods, extending over wide areas, and, as indirect consequence, spreading of pollutants in the fields. Water management in the karst environment of Apulia is discussed in this paper. Two examples are used to describe both history of the anthropogenic actions, and the main effects they caused_ Castellana-Grotte, in the Murge plateau, and Nardò, in the Salento Peninsula.

In the territory of San Basile (Northern Calabria), five sinkholes have recently been identified at "Piano dell'Acqua", and analyzed in historical, geological, geomorphological, and hydrological terms. The study area is characterized by Pliocene conglomerate and sand, dislocated by tectonic lines. The sinkholes are limited in size, with maximum diameter of 10 m, and maximum depth of 2.5 m; two of them present elongated shapes, whilst the remaining three are circular. Initially, sinkhole phenomena were investigated in the whole territory by means of multitemporal aerial photos, and the outcomes from this analysis were checked in the field. At the same time, historical analyses were performed to collect and critically evaluate the
existing information and testimonies about the age of occurrence of the surveyed cases. As a result, it could be assumed that two out of the five sinkholes developed during the winter 2000-2001, with likely rapid formation; two of the remaining cases probably originated during the middle-late 70's, as also suggested by the age of vegetation hosted within them; c) the last case opened sometime between February 2001 and November 2007. According to the collected testimonies, a further phase of sinkhole development might have occurred in the first half of the past century, but no field evidence of such ancient phase could be found.
Since no earthquake has been identified as possible trigger for any of the sinkholes at Piano dell'Acqua, the origin of the studied phenomena may be related to sub-cutaneous erosion, within an area that is known to be rich in groundwater. Local changes in the water table, either related to climate or man-induced activities, may have triggered the development of the sinkholes - that may therefore be ascribed to the suffosion or dropout types. Hydrologic investigations have recently been carried out to analyse in detail the climatic conditions of the three periods mentioned above, in which the considered sinkholes probably originated. For such periods, the recorded rainfalls and drought phases have been analysed in terms of "Standardized Precipitation Index" (SPI), by computing the deficit of precipitation for different temporal scales. Furthermore, by applying the "method of the runs", the return periods of the drought phases have also been evaluated. In this paper, after a short description of the study area and of the considered sinkholes, the results of the hydrological analyses are commented, and the climatic characteristics of the assumed periods of origin of the sinkholes are discussed in detail.

Abstract

Development of sinkholes in urban and rural area of Apulia (S Italy) is certainly one of the main hazards in the region. Related both to natural and anthropogenic cavities, sinkholes pose serious problems as regards safeguard of the territory, and have recently been the object of interest by mass media and population. For instance, the sinkholes at Marina di Lesina, the Alliste sinkhole in February 2004,the sinkhole of Via Firenze at Gallipoli on March 29, 2007, the several sinkholes in the Altamura municipality.
The present work illustrates the research activities carried out by the Basin Authority of Apulia and the Institute of Research for the Hydrogeological Protection (IRPI) of CNR, aimed at predisposing an updated list of the Municipalities of Apulia Region interested by anthropogenic cavities, and at performing detailed studies about development of the underground cavities, and the likely failures induced. The present work, therefore, does not take into consideration sinkholes directly linked to presence of natural caves. An accurate inventory of the anthropogenic cavities in the region has been created, starting from the list by the local caving federation (FSP). The 564 man-made cavities have been analyzed, while detailed historical, archival and bibliographical researches, in turn integrated by interviews with the responsibles of the Technical Offices, were carried out. A survey form has been created to collect and analyze the information on the inventoried cavities; in such form, particular focus was given to those information useful to preliminarly evaluate the susceptibility to failures of the examined sites, also in relation to presence of elements at risk above the cavities, or in their immediate proximity. The first phase of work allowed to obtain a regional framework of knowledge that was useful to select ten municipalities where to perform analysis at a greater detail. These consisted of detailed geological and morphological descriptions, analysis of typology and distribution of the artificial cavities, evaluation of the overall stability in the areas affected by their presence, and description of the engineering works realized in the past, where present. In addition,
three specific sites have been individuated to carry out further topographic surveys, and geological-structural analysis as well.
All this work allowed to identify those areas in the regional territory that are mostly threatened by likely development of sinkholes related to anthropogenic cavities; further information on about three hundred other cavities have been then found, in many cases being related to systems of cavities rather than to single caves. This also stresses the very high number of man-made cavities in the region (estimated on the order of some thousands), and the need to continue studying sinkholes related to anthropogenic cavities, in order to contribute to mitigation of the related risk.

We describe a system for the dissemination of geographical and thematic information on landslides and floods in Italy. In the
framework of the Integrated Management of the Environmental Data project - GIIDA - of the Italian National Research Council
(CNR), the research Institute for Geo-Hydrological Hazard Assessment (IRPI) has designed and implemented a new Spatial Data
Infrastructure (SDI). The SDI is compliant to Open Geospatial Consortium (OGC) specifications for the publication, access, and
discovery of dedicated services, including WMS, WFS, WCS and CSW services. The CNR IRPI spatial data infrastructure (SDI) fully
exploits Open Source Software (OSS). Adoption of an OSS approach for the design and the implementation of the new SDI proved
valid, and economically convenient. As part of the GIIDA project, the national landslide warning system for the possible occurrence of
rainfall-induced landslides in Italy was integrated in the new SDI. The integration proved successful, and was facilitated by the fact that
the warning system operates on data and geographical information stored in a PostgreSQL + PostGIS database.

Il complesso assetto geomorfologico della Calabria e le sue peculiarità climatiche, tra cui una piovosità maggiore della media nazionale, fanno si che questa sia una delle regioni maggiormente esposte a fenomenologie di dissesto idrogeologico. Quale effetto indiretto della rude morfologia regionale e dello sviluppo territoriale oblungo, il reticolo stradale principale ha un basso grado di interconnessione, circostanza questa che ne amplifica l'intrinseca vulnerabilità. In tale contesto, l'incidenza delle vie di comunicazione veloci e ad elevata capacità è trascurabile, mentre le tipologie costruttive risultano essere, come discusso da questo contributo, non adeguate alla diffusa vulnerabilità idrogeologica del territorio. Piogge intense e/o prolungate determinano la frequente insorgenza di crisi territoriali, comunemente definite eventi alluvionali, che determinano sia frane diffuse che catastrofiche piene, e causano perdite di vite umane nonchè gravi e duraturi danni alle infrastrutture di trasporto. In tali circostanze, i dissesti che si determinano lungo la rete viaria rappresentano una fonte di danno sia diretto che indiretto per la comunità e nei casi più gravi costituiscono un impedimento alle attività di protezione civile. L'analisi sistematica delle tipologie di dissesti che hanno interessato la rete viaria in un arco temporale sufficientemente esteso (80 anni), selezionato per la sua significatività, costituisce uno strumento per la valutazione delle relazioni causa effetto fra il verificarsi di piene ed eventi alluvionali da una parte e l'insorgenza dei dissesti della rete viaria dall'altra. La ricerca si propone di individuare indicazioni utili alla programmazione della manutenzione ordinaria e nonché alla gerarchizzazione delle priorità degli interventi volti a minimizzare i danni causati dalle piene alle infrastrutture lineari di trasporto.

Slope instability and streamflow processes in the mountainous part of the Sangone river
basin have been investigated in conjunction with their influence on relief remodelling. Through historical
records, the most critical sites during extreme rainfalls have been evidenced, concerned natural
parameters and their effects (impact on man-made structures) reiterated over space and time. The key
issue of the work is the simulation of a volume of detrital materials, which might be set in motion by
a debris flow. Two modelling approaches have been tested and obtained results have been evaluated
using Debris© (GEOSOFT s.a.s.) software. Simulation of debris flow in a small sub-catchment (Tauneri
stream) was carried out and the thickness of sediment "package" that could be removed was calculated
in order to assess the debris flow hazard. The Turconi & Tropeano formula (2000) was applied to all the
partitions of the Sangone basin in order to predict the whole sediment volume which might be delivered
to the main stream during an extreme event and the result being 117 m3/hectare.
