The paper presents the geotechnical characterisation of a site in the Daunia region (southern
Italy), Santa Croce di Magliano, which is located within the East-side border of the Apennines chain.
The soils outcropping in the site form the so-called Daunia unit. They are mainly allochthonous finegrained
soils, which were originally deposited elsewhere and were moved and largely deformed during
the Apennines orogenesis. Therefore, they are severely disturbed and fissured. The paper first discusses
briefly the geological setting of Daunia and, in particular, of Santa Croce di Magliano. Thereafter, it
presents the main results of a research about the mechanical properties of two of the four main soilcomplexes
assembled in the Daunia Unit_ the scaly clays and the fissured bentonite part of the Red Flysch,
which are excessively and intensely fissured respectively. Their mechanical characterisation results in
the definition of a framework of mechanical behaviour for both the soils, representing the main features
of the influence of highly intense fissuring on the mechanical behaviour of clays.

Si presenta un'analisi statistica della serie temporali giornaliere delle piogge,
schematizzate come fenomeno binario, relativamente ad un'area della Calabria Ionica
Meridionale. Fra le 45 stazioni disponibili per quest'area sono state selezionate quelle, 5,
che possiedono un periodo di osservazione comune sufficientemente lungo e completo. In
particolare si `e considerato il trentennio 1961-1990. Il fenomeno `e stato quindi modellato
tramite un cosidetto hidden Markov process.

Cellular Automata (CA) are a computational paradigm, a valid alternative to standard methods
with differential equations for modelling and simulating complex systems, whose behaviour may be
specified in terms of local interactions in a context of discrete time and space. Some surface flows may be
approximated to such a type of complex systems. The Empedocles Research Group developed an empirical
methodology for modelling this kind of macroscopic phenomena. The CA space for surface flows is divided
in hexagonal cells, whose specification (state) describes the physical characteristics (substates) relevant to
the evolution of the system and relative to the space portion corresponding to the cell. The cell neighbouring,
specifying the interaction range, is given by its adjacent cells. The evolution of the phenomenon is obtained
by updating the values of the substates simultaneously at discrete time steps in all the cellular space
according to the CA transition function, which is split in sequential "elementary" processes. This CA
methodological approach for modelling large scale surface flows was applied to lava flows (the model
SCIARA), pyroclastic flows (the PYR model) and debris flows (the SCIDDICA model). Satisfying
simulations of real events are exhibited_ the NE flank lava flows of the 2002 Etnean eruption, the pyroclastic
flows invading the Sacobia area during the 1991 eruption of Mount Pinatubo in the island of Luzon (The
Philippines Islands), the Chiappe di Sarno (Italy) catastrophic debris flows on 1998.

In this paper, results from experimental stations located in two streams of the Eastern Italian Alps are presented_ the Rio Cordon (5.0 km2) and the Moscardo Torrent (4.1 km2). The former hosts a measuring station for water and sediment (both suspended and bedload) transport rates operating since 1986, whereas the latter was set up in 1989 to monitor debris-flow events. Differences in sediment dynamics between the two basins are quantitatively investigated by using a magnitude-frequency analysis that highlights the relatively low sediment supply of the Rio Cordon and the unlimited sediment availability in the Moscardo Torrent.

Active debris flow scree in the territory of Cortina d'Ampezzo (Dolomites, Italy) seriously threatens the urbanized areas and the state road. In September 1997, following a 25.000 m(3) magnitude debris flow that temporarily dammed the river, a retention basin with a storage capacity of about 15000 m(3), was built upstream the state road. In this paper, the effectiveness of the existing debris basin has been evaluated regarding to the magnitude of the design debris flow. Based on geomorphological and historical data, major events up to 30.000 m(3) may be possible. To avoid destruction caused by debris flows, new mitigation measures are planned. Proper zoning is implemented, but for the state road cannot be relocated, both passive and active mitigation measures must be adopted. A warning system has been designed, based on both the early detecting of debris flow-induced ground vibrations and the overcoming of rain thresholds, for stopping the traffic on the state road in the event of a debris flow. As it is not possible to mitigate debris flows along the flow paths, the most suitable action to reduce the risk is to control the debris deposition. Proper design requires an estimate of the magnitude, frequency and delineation of debris flow hazard and risk of the site, together with fundamental information such as possible runout distances, depth, velocities and impact force of a design debris flow. For this purpose, a two-dimensional flow routing model, FLO-2D, has been used, based on a detailed DEM of the site, data collected in a similar neighbour debris flow monitored site and reasonable assumptions regarding sediment concentration and other rheological parameters. A more effective design of a retention basin is proposed.

This paper concerns the instability process occurring on a cut slope in stiff clays located at the north of the town of Lucera (Southern Italy). This unstable slope lies between a hospital at the top and an abandoned quarry at the toe, which was active until the end of the 1970s. A first landslide was triggered around 1980 and was characterized by a subsequent retrogressive activity This paper presents the results of a coupled elasto-plastic finite difference analysis of the slope behaviour carried out with FLAC(2D), outlining a possible interpretation of the landslide mechanism. The input data have been defined according to field surveys and laboratory investigations on the involved clays. The numerical results show that during the excavation stages the negative excess pore water pressures due to undrained unloading allowed for a temporary slope stability and that subsequently the process of pore pressure equalization caused the slope failure.

Abstract
In the early morning of March 7th 2005, after a period of prolonged rainfall (645 ...
In the early morning of March 7th 2005, after a period of prolonged rainfall (645 mm in 90 days,
about 72% of mean annual precipitation) and snowfall, the hamlet of Cavallerizzo was severely damaged by a
vast complex debris slide-earth flow. In total, thirty buildings were severely damaged or destroyed by the
landslide, and the main road connecting Cavallerizzo with the villages of Cerzeto and Mongrassano was
disrupted. About 310 inhabitants had to be evacuated to nearby villages.
Several superimposed tectonic units, made of metamorphic rocks (Palaeozoic-Mesozoic) overlain by clastic
terrains (Cenozoic-Neozoic), crop out in the vicinity of the study area. The main scarp of the slide developed at
the eastern tectonic boundary of the Coastal Chain, marked by the "San Fili-Cerzeto-San Marco Argentano"
recent (presumably active) N-S trending normal fault; its crown is mainly located within the cataclastic zone
associated with such master fault. In the lower part of the landslide, two main earth-flows extended eastward
along minor valleys, that merged down slope along the S. Nicola torrent.
The sector affected by the landslide belongs to a wider large-scale slope movement, which extends
westwards up to about 800 m a.s.l. The 2005 event is only the last paroxysmal episode of a long history of
deformation recorded in the area of Cavallerizzo since the XVIII century. The area has been kept under control
by the CNR-IRPI, by means of desultory field measurements (essentially, deep and superficial displacements,
and piezometric levels) since 1999. Velocities, recorded at superficial benchmarks along opening cracks,
pointed out "anomalous" conditions in the weeks preceding the collapse_ pre-rupture velocities ranged from 0.8
to 5-6 cm/day. Despite its emergency character, the monitoring carried out helped to support civil-protection
activities, and allowed all inhabitants to be saved.
