Abstract:
Single PCB congeners were determined in dated sediment cores taken from the three greatest Italian lakes. The PCB profile is fairly constant with time in the three lakes and similar to that of a mixture of Aroclor 1254 and 1260 (35 : 65). Qualitative and quantitative results are consistent with the amounts of Aroclor sold, showing a general trend towards less in recent sediments than in the 1970s. However, this decrease was sharper in Lakes Maggiore and Como, which in the past had PCB concentration peaks of 197 ng g-1 and 822 ng g-1, repectively, than in Lake Garda (peak 38 ng g-1). There is disequilibrium between the top sediment layer and the water column due to freshly settled algae, which can adsorb PCBs to a greater extent than can abiotic particulate matter. A comparison of PCB loads in rain and in sediment shows that there are still local sources of contamination in Lake Como. The net flux of less chlorinated PCBs from Lake Maggiore to the atmosphere indicates that this waterbody can be a source of pollution for the surrounding area.

Abstract:
Diphyllobothriasis, a parasitosis caused by the flatworm Diphyllobothrium latum, is contracted by consuming raw or undercooked freshwater fish. The aim of this study was to evaluate the situation of this parasitosis during the past 20 years in Europe through the analysis of databases and search engines (Medline, Cabi Helminthological abstracts,Yahoo, Google), and through a questionnaire sent to a network of European parasitologists and to microbiological laboratories located on the shores of the large Alpine lakes. This study has shown that several dozen cases have been reported each year in Finland and Sweden, that there have been numerous cases in the French or Italian speaking areas of subalpine lakes, and that sporadic cases only have been observed in Austria, Spain, Greece, Romania, Poland and Norway. Over 30 cases have been identified on the Swiss shores of Lake Maggiore since 1990, and 70 cases on the Swiss and French shores of Lake Léman between 1993 and 2002. Eight to 12% of perch fillets from Lake Leman and 7.8 % of perch from Lake Maggiore were infested with larvae. Contamination sources include marinated fish fillets in northern Europe, 'carpaccio di persico' in northern Italy, and perch and charr consumed raw or undercooked around Lake Léman. Factors allowing the continuation of the parasitic cycle include the continued dumping of wastewater into lakes, yachtsmen who also fish, and a possible animal reservoir.

Abstract:
Human activities are one of the main causes of lake-water pollution and eutrophication. The study of human pressure around lakes is of importance to understand its effects on the lakes natural resources. Social media data is a valuable space–time-resolved information source to detect human dynamics. In this study, user-generated geodata, namely users’ location records provided by the Facebook Data for Good program, are used to assess population patterns and infer the magnitude of anthropic pressure in the areas surrounding the Insubric lakes (Maggiore, Como and Lugano) between Northern Italy and Southern Switzerland. Patterns were investigated across different lakes’ neighbouring areas as well as seasons, days of the week, and day hours in the study period May 2020–August 2021. Two indicators were conceived, computed and mapped to assess the space–time distribution of users around lakes and infer the anthropic pressure. The highest pressure was found around lakes Maggiore and Como coastal areas during weekends in summer (up to +14% average users presence than weekdays in winter), suggesting tourism is the primary accountable reason for the pressure. Contrarily, around lake Lugano, the population dynamic is mostly affected by commuters or weekly workers, where the maximum pressure occurs during weekdays in all seasons (+6.6% average users presence than weekends). Results provide valuable input to further analyses connected, for example, to the correlation between human activities and lake-water quality and/or prediction models for anthropic pressure and tourism fluxes on lakes that are foreseen for the future development of this work.

Abstract. Migratory birds need to stop along their route to rest and feed at so called stopover sites. “Bolle di Magadino” is a protected wetland located near lake Maggiore (CH), an internationally recognized nesting and stop-over site for birds. The waters of Lake Maggiore are important resources for multiple usages, and are artificially regulated through a dam. Even slight variations in the water level are sufficient to cause flooding and draining of large portions of the wetlands, affecting foraging and resting opportunities for birds. We use open data and FOSS4G to study the effect of water level on bird migration. We compared the extent and type of flooded habitat using two approaches: Sentinel-1 remote sensing imagery and simulations based on the measured water level. The effect of type and extent of submerged vegetation obtained with both methods was tested against a time series of bird captures. Both methods had a similar temporal pattern of flooding in autumn, but nearly opposite in spring. The total extent and the type of submerged habitats showed significant differences. The results obtained by simulations based on water level were more correlated to birds captures and species richness than the estimations of flooded habitat derived by with Sentinel-1. The results presented here will contribute to the definition sustainable management tools of water management of lake Maggiore taking into account the effect of lake level on biodiversity.

Abstract:
Ammonia-oxidizing Archaea (AOA) play an important role in the oxidation of ammonia in terrestrial, marine, and geothermal habitats, as confirmed by a number of studies specifically focused on those environments. Much less is known about the ecological role of AOA in freshwaters. In order to reach a high resolution at the Thaumarchaea community level, the probe MGI-535 was specifically designed for this study and applied to fluorescencein situhybridization and catalyzed reporter deposition (CARD-FISH) analysis. We then applied it to a fine analysis of diversity and relative abundance of AOA in the deepest layers of the oligotrophic Lake Maggiore, confirming previous published results of AOA presence, but showing differences in abundance and distribution within the water column without significant seasonal trends with respect to Bacteria. Furthermore, phylogenetic analysis of AOA clone libraries from deep lake water and from a lake tributary, River Maggia, suggested the riverine origin of AOA of the deep hypolimnion of the lake.

Abstract:
Das künstliche Radionuklid 137Cs wurde seit über einem halben Jahrhundert in die Natur eingebracht. Sein erstes Erscheinen in Sedimenten der zentraleuropäischen Seen korrespondiert mit den Nuklearwaffentests in den 60er-Jahren des 20. Jahrhunderts. Die stärkste Kontaminierung der europäischen Seen und Flüsse entstand als Folge des radioaktiven Niederschlags nach dem Unfall in Tschernobyl im Frühjahr 1986. In dieser Arbeit wurde das Migrationsverhalten des künstlichen 137Cs im Lago Maggiore und anderen Seen im Alpenvorland als Folge dieses Niederschlags untersucht. Der Lago Maggiore zählt zu den größten Trinkwasserreservoiren südlich der Alpen. Nach dem Unfall in Tschernobyl gingen ungefähr 20 kBq•m-2 des 137Cs auf die Oberfläche des Sees nieder. Im Zeitraum von 2003 bis 2005 wurden Sedimentkerne und Wasserproben an sieben unterschiedlichen Stellen des Lago Maggiore entnommen. Diese Arbeit beschäftigt sich mit Daten über die Verteilung des 137Cs in den Zuflüssen, dem Wasser des Sees, in Schwebstoffen und Bodensedimenten und mit der Assoziierung von 137Cs mit verschiedenen geochemischen Fraktionen. Um den Abfluss des 137Cs aus dem Wassereinzugsgebiet in den Fluss zu modellieren, wurde ein Compartmentmodell verwendet. Zur Modellierung der Aufnahmemenge von 137Cs im Sediment und der vertikalen Verteilung innerhalb dessen wurde ein Diffusions-Konvektions-Modell entwickelt. Dieses Modell berücksichtigt die Aufnahme von Aktivität durch Sedimentation, Fixierung und Rücklösung, retardierte Diffusion, die Verdichtung des Sediments sowie den Einfluss konkurrierender Ionen auf die retardierte Diffusion innerhalb des Sediments. Die Ergebnisse der Parameteroptimierung – im Wesentlichen die Sedimentationsrate und der 137Cs-Verteilungskoeffizient Kd, welcher die Aufnahme der Aktivität in das Sediment determiniert – werden erörtert und mit denen anderer europäischer Seen, die eine ähnliche 137Cs-Deposition, aber unterschiedliche limnologische Eigenschaften aufweisen, verglichen. Zur Beurteilung der Bioverfügbarkeit von 137Cs wurde die 137Cs-Aktivitätskonzentrationen von Fischproben aus dem Lago Maggiore gemessen. Aus bereits existierenden Daten und unseren Messergebnissen wurden 137Cs Fisch-Wasser Konzentrations-Verhältnisse errechnet und mit denen für andere Seen, die von ähnlichen 137Cs-Kontaminationen betroffen sind, verglichen
Artificial Cs-137 has been introduced into the environment for more than half a century. Its first appearance in central European lake sediments corresponds to the nuclear weapons testing in the 1960s. The largest contamination of European lakes and rivers occurred as a consequence of the fallout after the Chernobyl accident in spring 1986. In this work the migration behaviour of artificial Cs-137 in Lago Maggiore and other pre-alpine lakes as a consequence of these fallouts was studied. Lago Maggiore is one of the largest drinking water reservoirs in the south of the Alps. After the Chernobyl accident roughly 20 kBq•m-2 of 137Cs were deposited onto the lake surface. From 2003 to 2005 bottom sediment cores and water samples were collected at 7 different locations of Lago Maggiore. Data on the 137Cs distribution in tributaries, lake water, suspended matter, bottom sediments, and the 137Cs association to different geochemical fractions are presented in this work. To model the run-off of 137Cs from the watershed into the lake a compartment model was used. For modeling the input of 137Cs into and the vertical distribution within the sediment a diffusion–convection type model was developed. This model takes into account the uptake of activity by sedimentation, fixation and redissolution, retarded diffusion, the influence of competing ions on the retarded diffusion within the sediments, and compaction of sediments. The results of the parameter optimization – mainly the sedimentation rate and the 137Cs distribution coefficient Kd, which determines the uptake of activity into the sediment – are discussed and compared with those of other European lakes characterized by similar 137Cs deposition levels but different limnological properties. To estimate the bioavailability of 137Cs, its activity concentrations in fish samples from Lago Maggiore were measured. Combining the existing data with our measurements, 137Cs fish–water concentration ratios were calculated and compared with those for other lakes which were affected by similar 137Cs contamination

Full text
Abstract:
The global reduction in the use of PBDEs and HBCD as flame retardants has opened the way for the introduction of “Novel” BFRs (NBFRs) in place of the banned formulations, indicating those BFRs that are new in the market or newly/recently observed in the environment in respect to PBDEs and HBCD. Consequently, consumption and production of these NBFRs will keep rising, and increasing environmental levels of these chemicals are expected in the near future. Important representatives of this group are decabromodiphenyl ethane (DBDPE), 1,2-bis(2,4,6-tribromophenoxy) ethane (BTBPE), hexabromobenzene (HBB), and pentabromoethylbenzene (PBEB). In Italy, previous studies have shown that some BFRs (PBDEs) were measured at high concentrations in the Varese province due to the presence of a great number of textile and plastic industries, and particularly in the sediments of Lake Maggiore, where those facilities wastewaters are finally collected mainly through two lake tributaries (Bardello and Boesio). For these reasons, the present thesis has the aim to evaluate the presence, and the potential bioaccumulation and biomagnification processes of six different classes of BFRs (PBDEs, HBCD, DBDPE, BTBPE, HBB and PBEB) in the Lake Maggiore ecosystem, with particular regard to zebra mussels (Dreissena polymorpha), zooplankton, one littoral fish species (common roach - Rutilus rutilus), and two different pelagic species (twaite shad – Alosa agone and European whitefish – Coregonus lavaretus). Finally, the study has also considered the BFR contamination in the lake sediments with the aim of characterizing in detail the possible presence of temporal trends and/or identifying potential sources of contamination. Moreover, it is plausible that the BFR uptake by benthic organisms, followed by fish predation, might be a significant source of bioaccumulation.

Abstract:
In this dissertation the incorporation of cross-cultural imagery and its assimilation is focused on the work of Maggie Mikula, a ceramist from KwaZulu-Natal. Producing within the 1970's and 1980's. her work is investigated within the historical context of the socio-political background of South Africa. Syncretism in the visual arts reflects problems associated with identity and authenticity and this dissertation analyses these issues. A reference is made to select artists and ceramists in South Africa who approach their work in this manner, in particular with reference to the influence that Maggie Mikula has had in their work. Chapter One discusses the history of borrowing in South Africa citing examples of work by artists including amongst others Walter Battiss, Alexis Preller and Cecil Skotnes. This is based around the broad political and ideological relationships in the country that framed local art making. The assimilation and the breakdown of barriers in African/western art in a South African context is argued through a post-colonial reading. The chapter deals with the problems of borrowing related to appropriation and stereotyping from a postmodernist perspective. Chapter Two introduces the history of South African ceramics examining its development and styles, focussing on changing premises within the medium. The second part of the chapter positions Mikula's work, interests, personal history and ideals. Chapter Three deals with the development of Mikula's ceramic work, referring to her technology, processes and sourcing. The reception of Mikula's work and the attitudes to cross-cultural assimilation in the 1980's, as well as current perceptions are addressed in Chapter Four. Her influence on this creative medium is shown with specific examples. Personal interviews attempt to contextualise her position and situate her within the ceramic world. Acknowledging that there is a wealth of collections through out South Africa, the ceramic work predominately researched for this paper is from KwaZulu-Natal. It has been sourced both from the immediate family, and from individual collectors, as this was the site of her production. Other collections have been accessed from around South Africa including the Corobrik collection in Pretoria (of which there are two pieces - one which is broken), the large piece is documented photographically (see Fig.22) and referred to on Page 66. The Nelson Mandela Museum, Port Elizabeth, (accessed on-line and via photographs from the artist's records) has a notable collection, but given the nature of this research, these pieces do not demonstrate any significant features over and above those that were already sourced. This paper is not intended as a catalogue, but is meant to show a variety of Mikula's work to demonstrate her influence and style. Each piece is chosen for its specific aspects and unique features that would support this research. Given the nature of this investigation, the author has been obliged to read widely, including writers such as Berman, Sacks, Cruise and the complete edition of APSA newsletters and magazines to give a comprehensive over view of the changes in style and influence within South African art and specifically, ceramics.

Abstract:
AbstractEmma Morano was born on 29 November 1899 in a small mountain village in Piemonte, and died on 15 April 2017 in Verbania on Lake Maggiore (100 km north of Milano). She was the daughter of Giovanni Morano, a miner; and Mathilde Bresciani, aged 24, a weaver. She was the first child in the family, and her arrival was followed by the births of seven siblings, four sisters and three brothers, all of whom she all survived. On 16 October 1926, Emma Morano married Giovanni Martinuzzi, but they separated a few years later after the death of their child. For more than 30 years, she worked in a jute factory. She then worked for about 20 years in the kitchen of a Marianist boarding school until she retired at the age of 75. After retirement, she lived in a small two-room apartment. In her final years, her hearing and sight were greatly reduced, but she could recognise faces and could communicate when spoken to loudly. She seemed to remember both past events and more recent ones. She had never been hospitalised, but had been treated for gastrointestinal bleeding and for urinary infections. She took no drugs regularly except laxatives. In the archives of four municipalities in the region, we obtained copies of the death certificates of her parents, the birth certificates of all of her siblings, her marriage certificate, and the birth and death certificates of her child. We found no inconsistences in the documents.

Abstract:
This chapter describes a study designed to evaluate the spectrum of the residence time of the water at different depths of a deep lake, and to examine the mechanisms governing the seasonal cycle of thermal stratification and destratification, with the ultimate aim of assessing the actual exchange time of the lake water. The study was performed on Lake Maggiore (depth 370m) using a multidimensional mathematical model and computer codes for the heat and mass transfer in very large natural water bodies. A 3D Eulerian time-dependent CFD (Computational Fluid Dynamics) code was applied under real conditions, taking into account the effects of the monthly mean values of the mass flow rates and temperatures of all the tributaries, mass flow rate of the Ticino effluent and meteorological, hydrological, and limnological parameters available from the rich data-base of the CNR-ISE (Pallanza). The velocity distributions from these simulations were used to compute the paths of a large number of massless markers with different initial positions and evaluate their residence times in the lake.

Abstract:
This chapter talks about how geology not only sets in motion the primary “law of attraction” and pulled miners into the wombs of mountains, but also how geography cultivated and turned excitement in mining into an economic force. Geography initiated the conditions for turning ore deposits into the underground wealth of Europe. The results were astonishing: the low elevations of Europe's mountains were transformed into world mining regions. The chapter describes mining regions, such as the central Alps and Lombardy that constituted a world mining region from the twelfth to the fourteenth century. Mining fields extended into the Austrian Alps and the territori montuosi that encircle Lake Lugano, between Lake Maggiore and Lake Como. Later in the fifteenth century, mining fields shifted slightly to the east, in Padova, Vicenza, Verona, Treviso, Feltre, and Belluno, north of Venice, controlled by diverse società tedesca.

The artist employed the mineral support not primarily to visualize a poetics of transformation. Rather, he was exploiting highly specialized geological and mineralogical knowledge, in order to craft a historia naturalis. The essay will focus on how the artist explored the aesthetic qualities of the stone support, providing the viewer with insights about nature’s petrifying agency, the formation of fossils, and the phenomenon of “middle nature.”

Abstract:
Accessibility to public transport systems is a key factor for the social inclusion and quality of life of people with disabilities. This paper presents an analysis of the accessibility of the water public transport service run by Navigazione Laghi on lakes Maggiore, Como and Garda in Northern Italy. The study is focused on ‘water buses’, namely small ferries operating on short, scheduled routes, with one or two decks, that do not transport vehicles and that are not equipped with bed cabins. In particular, as a case study, this paper examines a ferry of the series Airone, 24 m passenger-only units built in 2008‒2011. These units are relevant because they represent about 10% of the whole fleet of Navigazione Laghi.
