Shallow instabilities, known in literature as soil slips, although they affect small volumes of
soil, can often produce high risk conditions, in particular for infrastructure networks. The reasons are many
and, among these, there are the high rate of the instabilities when evolve to flow and their low spatial forecast.
These features have suggested the realization of a cognitive monitoring station in a study area (Calabria,
Southern Italy) in order to measure some parameters correlated to soil slips predisposition, triggering and
evolution. These measures, and in particular suction measures, taken since October 2001 allow to formulate
hypothesis on the saturation-desaturation processes, and mechanisms of perched water tables formation in the
degraded soils cover, that control predisposition, triggering and evolution of soil slips phenomena.

Abstract

The quality and quantity of groundwater flow is very important for hydrological and ecological equilibrium where groundwater flowing into sea and transitional environments, located near the coastline, is higher than river flow. This is the case of Murgia Plateau (Murgia) and of Salentine Peninsula (Salento), located in the Apulian Region, South-eastern Italy, study area selected for this research.
Data collected by many monitoring campaigns in which wells and coastal springs were sampled are discussed. The specific electrical conductivity and the ammonia, nitrate, nitrite, chlorine, manganese and some heavy metals (As, Cd, Hg, Pb, Zn) concentrations are considered together with bacteriological parameters.The in force normative is considered as comparative criteria.
The groundwater pollution is quite null only in inner areas of Murgia and Salento, constituted by a portion of recharge zone of aquifers. Groundwater flowing form these areas to the sea are progressively polluted. This pollution load discharges into sea or into humid area, constituting a huge hazard for ecological equilibrium of valuable sites.

Alarming signs of instability appeared on a natural slope during the winter of 1998-99 near a town in Southern Italy. This
fact induced Authorities to close the national way that gives access to the town of Acri. This safety measure then caused many difficulties
for the populations of a vast mountain area. Surveys and preliminary investigations highlighted the need to set up a monitoring
system, directly supervising the site, in order to re-open the road with acceptable risks for the population. It was decided to test and
verify, for survey and control purposes, the use of surveying equipment for monitoring the surface movements of the landslide area.
The paper shows the information gained and it underlines the contribution of monitoring activities to manage emergencies and plan
risk mitigation activities and hazard reduction measures.

The high incidence of soil slips in an area of Calabria (Southern Italy) that is representative of a
typical geo-environmental context, suggested a research aimed to the geotechnical characterisation of finegrained
soils involved in this kind of instability. The paper shows the geotechnical investigation carried out
on samples coming from two test sites individuated in the study area named Stretta di Catanzaro . The results
give a first reference scheme about the physical-mechanical characteristics of the soils affected by shallow
and fast sliding-flow soil slip instabilities. In particular, they permit_ to characterise soils with stress
levels coherent with the thickness of the materials involved in shallow instabilities; to define the influence of
soil saturation on its shear strength; to investigate about the influence of degradation processes on shear
strength.

The recent activity ofthe "Serra di Buda" landslide near the town of Acri suggested to verify and
improve a methodology to characterise rainfalls which could trigger slope instabilities. The landslide, already
active in the past, involves weathered ami/or degraded gneissic and granitic rocks. An historical research allowed
to individuate many dates concerning slope instabilities induced by rainfalls near Acri. The study used different
hydrological analysis techniques to individuate pluviometrical scenarios of landslides with shallow, medium
deep and deep failure surface_ the first ten critic cases were individuated and compared with historical dates for
each hydrological analysis technique using daily rainfalls. The historical research has been completed by the
geomorphological characterisation of the landslides near Acri and repeating the comparisons. This study permits
to individuate the periods in which the historical research could be improved and the values of the parameters
able to characterise pluviometrical instability scenarios.

Sinkhole development occurs in many areas of the world where soluble rocks crop out. Sinkholes are generally the surface expression of the presence of caves and other groundwater flow conduits in carbonate rocks, which are solutionally enlarged secondary permeability features. Their formation may be either natural or caused by man's activities. In both cases, heavy consequences have to be registered on the anthropogenic environment and related infrastructures. Knowledge of the mechanism of formation of this subtle geohazard is therefore necessary to planners and decision makers for performing the most appropriate and suitable programs of land use and development.
The Apulia region of southern Italy is characterized for most of its extension by carbonate rocks, which makes it one of the most remarkable example of karst in the Mediterranean Basin. Based on analysis of literature and in situ surveys, including caving explorations, we have identified in Apulia three main types of possible mechanisms for sinkhole formation_ 1) collapse of a chamber in a natural cave
or in man-made cavities; 2) slow and gradual enlargement of doline through dissolution; 3) settlement and internal erosion of filling deposits of pre-existing dolines. Since sinkhole formation very often affects directly the human settlements in Apulia, and have recently produced severe damage, some considerations are eventually presented as regards the interrelationships between sinkholes and the anthropogenic
environment.

alabria region does not present relevant homogeneity for what regards the number and the characteristics of the pluviometrical events affecting it. Using about 200 historical series of daily rainfalls, for which at least 15 years of observations are available., an investigation has been carried out to point out the spatial distribution of rainfall events number and magnitudes. The applications relative to this approach, called POT (Peak Over Threshold) or PDS (Partial Duration Series), examine the generic historical series constituting the whole stochastic process. First, the maximum intensity has been assumed as the magnitude of the generic event, then other factors such as total rain and average intensity of the event itself have been assumed too. The analysis has been carried out on events exceeding, in some prefixed threshold, conditions for what regards the above-mentioned factor. Definitively, the events of the past presenting peculiar characteristics over variable threshold values have been calculated and analysed. The description of the spatial variability of the number and magnitude of pluviometrical events exceeding threshold values is proposed through maps traced with the "Kriging" method. The methodology we used permits to delineate the areas of the regional territory affected by major pluviometrical risk for what regards shallow slope instabilities; moreover the periods during the year in which the events, relative to exceeding threshold values, are more frequent have been pointed out.

Abstract. Sediment - water flows occurring in mountain torrents may show a variety of regimes, ranging from water flows with transport of individual particles to massive transport of debris, as it occurs in case of debris flows. Sometimes it is possible, by means of accurate field investigations, to identify the kind of processes that took place in a torrent after the occurrence of an event. However this procedure cannot give indications regarding the development of the process in time. In fact, because of the frequent presence of different surges within the same event, the rheological characteristics of an event can be detected only when some recorded hydrographs or videos are available. For the same reason, since the rheological behaviour of the flow changes according to the solid concentration, the analysis of the materials deposited
on the debris fan cannot directly give any information on the particular types of flow that took place_ a possible alternation in time of different water sediment surges with different concentrations may have occurred, during the same event. The installation of ultrasonic gauges or videocameras along the torrent might give more information on this issue. To this regard, the analysis of a flow event which occurred in 2002 in the Moscardo torrent watershed, instrumented for debris flow monitoring, has been undertaken, studying the hydrographs recorded at two different ultrasonic gauges placed at a known distance along the torrent. An empirical flow resistance law has been applied analysing the values assumed by its parameters after calibration. The application of this law actually spans from debris flow and immature debris flow to bed load
transport. Only field observations and surveys, together with ultrasonic data, may allow to clearly discriminate which type of flow really occurred. The analysis confirms that different water sediment surges alternated in time while the mathematical simulation of the flow compared with field observations revealed that the dynamic behaviour of the flow was different from that of previous debris flow events and might reflect, among the different types of possible rheological behaviors, a dilatant-type behavior typical of stony debris flows.

One of the most frequent landslide triggering causes are rainfalls which can determine such variation in pore pressures to reduce the shear strength and to determine slope instabilities. To realize failure mechanisms, surveys, investigations and analysis are expensive indispensable conditions. Then hydrological models are very useful to define scenarios that could trigger landslides generally classifiable and connected to homogeneous geo-environmental contexts. Three classes of instabilities are considered_ shallow (SH), medium deep (MD) and deep (DD) landslides. The hydrological analysis has been carried out for three areas of Calabria (Italy) referring to geo-environmental contexts in which landslides, referable to the considered classes, are traceable. For SH the employed procedure consists of analysing the heaviest rainy events. The analysis of rainfalls cumulated at the daily scale on prolonged periods or an indirect analysis of the soil moisture content, through the AR(1) autoregressive model, are used to study MD. For the DD, temporal periods longer than one rainy season are considered. A monthly temporal scale is then adopted with reference to cumulated rainfall and to the AR(1) model. Results allow us to define possible triggering scenarios for the considered instability classes and in the ambit of the geo-environmental contexts chosen as references. The scenarios we found may allow us to calibrate the instability mechanisms referring to simplified geotechnical schemes individuated as representative of homogeneous geo-environmental contexts.
