Abstract:
Abstract. A modelling system for the Adriatic Sea has been built within the framework of the Mediterranean Forecasting System Pilot Project. The modelling system consists of a hierarchy of three numerical models (whole Mediterranean Sea, whole Adriatic Sea, Northern Adriatic Basin) coupled among each other by simple one-way, off-line nesting techniques, to downscale the larger scale flow field to highly resolved coastal scale fields. Numerical simulations have been carried out under climatological surface forcing. Simulations were aimed to assess the effectiveness of the nesting techniques and the skill of the system to reproduce known features of the Adriatic Sea circulation phenomenology (main circulation features, dense water formation,flow at the Otranto Strait and coastal circulation characteristics over the northern Adriatic shelf), in view of the pre-operational use of the modelling system. This paper describes the modelling system setup, and discusses the simulation results for the whole Adriatic Sea and its northern basin, comparing the simulations with the observed climatological circulation characteristics. Results obtained with the northern Adriatic model are also compared with the corresponding simulations obtained with the coarser resolution Adriatic model. Key words. Oceanography: general (continental shelf processes; numerical modelling) – Oceanography: physical (general circulation)

Abstract Papetti, C., Di Franco, A., Zane, L., Guidetti, P., De Simone, V., Spizzotin, M., Zorica, B., Čikeš Keč, V. and Mazzoldi, C. 2013. Single population and common natal origin for Adriatic Scomber scombrus stocks: evidence from an integrated approach – ICES Journal of Marine Science, 70: 387–398. In order to implement proper fishery management strategies aimed at avoiding stock declines, information about connectivity among stocks and populations is critically required. In this perspective, the present study investigated population structure of the Atlantic mackerel Scomber scombrus in the northern–central Adriatic Sea by integrating multiple approaches (analysis of fisheries data, population genetics, and otolith chemistry). Monthly data of fishery landings indicate a latitudinal trend along the western Adriatic coast, with Atlantic mackerel disappearing from the northern waters in winter, corresponding to the reproductive season. Population genetic analyses by genotyping of eight microsatellites clearly point to the presence of a single panmictic population in the northern–central Adriatic Sea. Otolith cores of samples from the northern–central Adriatic were chemically homogeneous, suggesting a common spawning ground. These results strongly suggest that Atlantic mackerel perform an autumn–winter migration in the northern–central Adriatic Sea, from the northern to the central sector, to reach a single spawning ground, and that a single population is present in this area. Considering that S. scombrus has shown a marked decline in the last 40 years in the Adriatic, this study highlights a potential high vulnerability to collapse by overfishing for the Atlantic mackerel stocks in this geographic area.

Abstract:
Sabellidae is the second most diverse polychaete family in the Adriatic Sea, after Syllidae. Herein we report the updated list of the Sabellidae and Fabriciidae families in the Adriatic Sea deriving both from literature data and presently conducted researches in the northern Adriatic. During these researches polychaetes were sampled from three offshore soft-bottom and three coastal rocky shore stations. Among the analysed material three Sabellidae species are new records for the Adriatic fauna, while four Sabellidae and one Fabriciidae species were recorded for the first time in the northern part. Two new species were found and described: Amphicorina rovignensis spec. nov. and Megalomma pseudogesae spec. nov. These findings increase the number of Sabellidae taxa recorded in the northern Adriatic from 29 to 38. Our results point out the lack of the recent taxonomic studies in the area, but might also indicate the widening of the species areal. Taking into consideration that studies on only six stations raised the number of known sabellid taxa from the area by 31%, our results support the need for the regular taxonomic updating of the polychaete fauna in the northern Adriatic.

Abstract. Influenced by one of the largest Mediterranean rivers, Po, the northern Adriatic (NA) production is highly variable seasonally and interannually. The changes are especially pronounced between winters and seemingly reflect on total Adriatic bioproduction of certain species (anchovy). We analysed the long-term changes in the phytoplankton production in the region, as derived from monthly oceanographic cruises, in relation to concomitant geostrophic currents distribution in the area and to Po River discharge rates in days preceding the cruises. In winter and early spring the phytoplankton abundances depended on existing circulation fields, in summer and autumn they were related to Po River discharge rates 1–15 days earlier and on concomitant circulation fields, while in late spring phytoplankton abundances increased 1–3 days after high Po River discharge rates regardless of the circulation fields. During the entire year the phytoplankton abundances were dependent on forcing of the previous 1–12 months of surface fluxes and/or Po River rates. The role of wind was uncertain but that was partly due to unmatched sampling time frames between meteorological and sea data. Low evaporation rates in November reflected significantly on the next February circulation pattern and, although with somewhat lower significance, on large phytoplankton blooms in the same month. We showed that the role of wind in evaporative flux enhancements is not straightforward as evaporative fluxes are highly dependent on other factors, e.g. air–sea temperature difference. Wind-induced vertical mixing was only sporadically related to phytoplankton abundances. From 1990 to 2004 a shift towards large winter bioproduction induced by circulation changes appeared. The investigations performed represent the preliminary actions in the construction of an empirical ecological model of the NA which can be used in the sustainable economy of the region, as well as for validation of the numerical ecological model of the region, which is currently being developed.

Abstract:
Abstract While statistical analyses and observations show that severe bora with maximum gusts exceeding 40 m s−1 can occur in all parts of the Adriatic, the bora research to date has been mainly focused on the dynamics and structure of severe bora in the northern Adriatic. Examined to a significantly lesser degree is a less predictable counterpart in the southern Adriatic, where the Dinaric Alps are higher, broader, and steeper, and where the upwind bora layer is generally less well defined. Identification of the main differences in the sequence of mesoscale and macroscale events leading to the onset of bora in the northern and southern parts of the eastern Adriatic is of fundamental importance for its forecasting. To this end, presented here is a comparative analysis of the evolution and structure of two typical severe cyclonic bora events—one “northern” (7–8 November 1999) and one “southern” (6–7 May 2005) event. The analysis utilizes airborne, radiosonde, and ground-based observations, as well as the hydrostatic Aire Limitée Adaptation Dynamique Developement International (ALADIN/HR) mesoscale model simulations. It is shown that the development of a severe bora in both the northern and southern Adriatic is critically dependent on the synoptic setting to create an optimal set of environmental conditions. For severe bora in the northern Adriatic, these conditions include a strong forcing of the northeasterly low-level jet and pronounced discontinuities in the upstreamflow structure that promote layering, such as lower- to midtropospheric inversions and environmental critical levels. The development of severe bora in the southern Adriatic is crucially dependent on the establishment of a considerably deeper upstream layer that is able to overcome the strong blocking potential of the southern Dinaric Alps. While the upstream layering is less pronounced, it is closely tied to the presence of a cyclone in the southern Adriatic or over the southern Balkan peninsula. The upstream atmospheric layering is shown to strongly modulate bora behavior, and different phases of severe bora, related to the presence or absence of upstream layering, are shown to occur within a single bora episode. Furthermore, the presence of a mountain-parallel upper-level jet aloft appears to impede severe bora development in both the northern and southern Adriatic.

Abstract:
Should Italians, Croats and Slovenes Work Together in Developing a Northern Adriatic Tourist Destination?The article assesses opportunities for creating a macro-tourist destination in the region of the Northern Adriatic. Research was based on a survey of more than 1700 summer tourists in three different sea towns, namely Grado in Italy, Opatija in Croatia and Portorož in Slovenia in 2004. The three countries share a common past under the Austro-Hungarian monarchy and are headed for a common future within the European Union. Survey results of tourists' motivations and destination quality perceptions support the notion that the Northern Adriatic is considered by many central Europeans as the "sea closest to home". Thus, EU efforts under the framework of the Cohesion Policy of EU regions could also be adopted in the area of joint destination management of the Northern Adriatic. A Destination Management Organization for the three regions should be established as the main agent of change in the destination management of the region.

Abstract:
The Adriatic Sea is an epicontinental semi-enclosed basin characterized by a low axial gradient shelf in the northern and central part. In particular, during the post-LGM transgression, the northern Adriatic shelf was affected by huge drowning due to slight sea-level rise. In this context, different generation of barrier-lagoon systems were developed and preserved. Thus, these transgressive bodies, on the Adriatic seafloor, record different phases of the relative sea-level rise. In the last few decades, several authors focused their study on the last transgressive cycle to reconstruct the evolution of the last relative sea-level rise in order to identify and predict its impact on the present coastal and terrestrial environments. The aim of this PhD thesis was a detailed characterization of transgressive deposits sedimented and preserved during distinct phases of the last relative sea-level rise in the northern Adriatic shelf. These sedimentary bodies, indeed, are one of the more appropriate direct sea-level indicators and their study could be the key to better constrain the paleo sea-level and predict possible scenarios of environmental changes. Moreover, these transgressive deposits are identified as an economical resource because their sand portion, indicative of fossil shorelines, can be exploited for beaches nourishment. The characterization of different deposits was carried out with a multidisciplinary approach through the analyses of very high resolution seismic profiles, cores, bathymetric maps, petrographic samples, and XRF core scanner analysis. To improve the sea-level Mediterranean curve with new data, a preserved transgressive deposit south of the Po River delta was studied in detail. This sedimentary body, formed in a portion of the shelf affected by strong sediment supply, recorded different environments. The high quality of the acquired data and the considerable preservation of this deposit allowed to recognize and date different peat and organic-rich layers that testify brackish lagoon facies representative of distinct paleo sea-level position. The new radiocarbon data permitted to calculate the rate of sedimentation and the rate of the relative sea-level rise during the deposition of the investigated body. In particular, these high resolution data could be used to detect centennial fluctuations and calibrate sea-level models. Furthermore, to obtain new data on the paleogeography of the Adriatic shelf, eight starved and reworked transgressive deposits, northern of the present Po River delta, were investigated with petrographic and preliminary XRF core scanner analyses. The compositional results highlighted three sedimentary petrofacies (petrofaciesI, II, III) connected to different relative sea-level phases. In particular, the petrofacies I, indicative of the ancient sea-level phase, allowed to hypothesize a northward shifting of an ancient branch of the Po River; the Petrofacies II, highlighted a drowned shoreline characterized by different fluvial supply, and the petrofacies III, indicative of the more recent sea-level phase, and belonging to a transgressive deposit that have been already studied by other authors, confirmed a Tagliamento River supply. Furthermore, the XRF analysis, in support of the petrographic analysis, allowed to individuate geochemical proxies in order to distinguish marine sand portion from sorted sand portion. Moreover, through the XRF analysis was possible to identify geochemical variation related to different environments of sedimentation connected also to glacial-interglacial cycle. The applied approach to the characterization of the northern Adriatic transgressive deposits allowed to obtain satisfactory results in order to improve the Adriatic relative sea-level curve and to recognize environmental changes in relation to the sea-level rise. At least, the results can provide a significant contribution in order to identify appropriate sand suitable deposits for beaches nourishment.
Il Mare Adriatico è un bacino epicontinentale semi-chiuso caratterizzato da un basso gradiente della piattaforma nella zona centro settentrionale. In particolare, l’ultima risalita del mare, successiva all’ultimo massimo glaciale, provocò l’annegamento della piattaforma nord adriatica e conseguente sedimentazione e preservazione di diverse generazioni di sistemi costieri, che hanno quindi registrato diverse fasi di risalita del livello del mare. Negli ultimi decenni, più autori hanno focalizzato i loro studi sull’ultimo episodio trasgressivo per ricostruire in dettaglio i diversi momenti dell’ultima risalita relativa del livello del mare, per prevedere l’impatto che un innalzamento del livello del mare potrebbe avere nelle aree costiere attuali. Lo scopo di questa tesi di dottorato è stato quello di caratterizzare con estremo dettaglio i depositi trasgressivi sedimentati e preservati durante ultime fasi di risalita del mare nella piattaforma adriatica settentrionale. Questi corpi sedimentari sono infatti ottimi indicatori diretti del livello del mare e il loro studio potrebbe essere la chiave per delineare scenari futuri. Inoltre la porzione sabbiosa di questi depositi può costituire una risorsa economica sfruttabile per il ripascimento delle spiagge. Questi corpi sedimentari sono stati studiati con un approccio multidisciplinare che ha previsto l’analisi di profili sismici ad alta risoluzione, di carote, di mappe batimetriche, analisi compositive petrografiche su campioni di sabbia e analisi non distruttiva tramite spettrofotometria XRF in continuo su carote. Un deposito a sud del Delta del Po meglio comprendere gli effetti del sollevamento del livello del mare in un ambiente di transizione e con questo fornire dati di maggior dettaglio alla curva di risalita del mare Adriatico. Questo corpo sedimentario, formatosi in un’area caratterizzata da apporti sedimentari consistenti, ha registrato lo sviluppo di diversi ambienti sedimentari. La qualità dei dati analizzati e la considerevole preservazione del deposito hanno permesso di riconoscere e datare livelli ricchi in materia organica che testimoniano facies lagunari e quindi sono ottimi indicatori di paleo livelli del mare. Inoltre, le nuove datazioni al radiocarbonio hanno permesso di calcolare sia il tasso di sedimentazione sia il tasso relativo di risalita del livello del mare durante la formazione del deposito stesso. Questo estremo dettaglio nella ricostruzione delle fasi trasgressive potrebbe essere utilizzata in futuro per individuare fluttuazioni centenarie e calibrare i modelli di risalita del livello del mare. Inoltre, sono stati analizzati otto depositi starvati e rimaneggiati, presenti a nord del Delta del Po, per ottenere nuovi dati sulla paleo geografia del nord Adriatico. Questi depositi sono stati studiati con analisi petrografiche e di spettrofotometria XRF. I risultati compositivi, hanno messo in evidenza tre petrofacies sedimentarie in relazione a diverse fasi della risalita del livello del mare. In particolare, la petrofacies I, indicativa della fase di risalita più antica, ha permesso di ipotizzare uno spostamento verso nord di un ramo fluviale del paleo Po; la petrofacies II ha messo in evidenza una paleo linea di costa caratterizzata da diversi apporti fluviali; mentre la petrofacies III, indicativa di un deposito trasgressivo studiato in precedenza da altri autori, ha confermato una provenienza legata al fiume Tagliamento. Inoltre, l’analisi XRF ha consentito di individuare proxies geochimici che hanno permesso di distinguere porzioni di sabbie marine da porzioni di sabbie ben cernite, con variazioni geochimiche che riflettono i diversi ambienti di sedimentazione. I risultati ottenuti con lo studio di questi depositi hanno permesso di migliorare la curva dl livello relativo del mare Adriatico e di riconoscere cambiamenti ambientali legati alla risalita del livello del mare. Infine, questi risultati possono contribuire in modo cospicuo all’identificazione di corpi sabbiosi utilizzabili per il ripascimento delle spiagge.

Abstract:
A new Coastal Rapid Environmental Assessment (CREA) strategy has been developed and successfully applied to the Northern Adriatic Sea. CREA strategy exploits the recent advent of operational oceanography to establish a CREA system based on an operational regional forecasting system and coastal monitoring networks of opportunity. The methodology wishes to initialize a coastal high resolution model, nested within the regional forecasting system, blending the large scale parent model fields with the available coastal observations to generate the requisite field estimates. CREA modeling system consists of a high resolution, O(800m), Adriatic SHELF model (ASHELF) implemented into the Northern Adriatic basin and nested within the Adriatic Forecasting System (AFS) (Oddo et al. 2006). The observational system is composed by the coastal networks established in the framework of ADRICOSM (ADRiatic sea integrated COastal areaS and river basin Managment system) Pilot Project. An assimilation technique exerts a correction of the initial field provided by AFS on the basis of the available observations. The blending of the two data sets has been carried out through a multi-scale optimal interpolation technique developed by Mariano and Brown (1992). Two CREA weekly exercises have been conducted: the first, at the beginning of May (spring experiment); the second in middle August (summer experiment). The weeks have been chosen looking at the availability of all coastal observations in the initialization day and one week later to validate model results, verifying our predictive skills. ASHELF spin up time has been investigated too, through a dedicated experiment, in order to obtain the maximum forecast accuracy within a minimum time. Energetic evaluations show that for the Northern Adriatic Sea and for the forcing applied, a spin-up period of one week allows ASHELF to generate new circulation features enabled by the increased resolution and its total kinetic energy to establish a new dynamical balance. CREA results, evaluated by mean of standard statistics between ASHELF and coastal CTDs, show improvement deriving from the initialization technique and a good model performance in the coastal areas of the Northern Adriatic basin, characterized by a shallow and wide continental shelf subject to substantial freshwater influence from rivers. Results demonstrate the feasibility of our CREA strategy to support coastal zone management and wish an additional establishment of operational coastal monitoring activities to advance it.

Abstract:
This work is a detailed study of hydrodynamic processes in a defined area, the littoral in front of the Venice Lagoon and its inlets, which are complex morphological areas of interconnection. A finite element hydrodynamic model of the Venice Lagoon and the Adriatic Sea has been developed in order to study the coastal current patterns and the exchanges at the inlets of the Venice Lagoon. This is the first work in this area that tries to model the interaction dynamics, running together a model for the lagoon and the Adriatic Sea. First the barotropic processes near the inlets of the Venice Lagoon have been studied. Data from more than ten tide gauges displaced in the Adriatic Sea have been used in the calibration of the simulated water levels. To validate the model results, empirical flux data measured by ADCP probes installed inside the inlets of Lido and Malamocco have been used and the exchanges through the three inlets of the Venice Lagoon have been analyzed. The comparison between modelled and measured fluxes at the inlets outlined the efficiency of the model to reproduce both tide and wind induced water exchanges between the sea and the lagoon. As a second step, also small scale processes around the inlets that connect the Venice lagoon with the Northern Adriatic Sea have been investigated by means of 3D simulations. Maps of vorticity have been produced, considering the influence of tidal flows and wind stress in the area. A sensitivity analysis has been carried out to define the importance of the advection and of the baroclinic pressure gradients in the development of vortical processes seen along the littoral close to the inlets. Finally a comparison with real data measurements, surface velocity data from HF Radar near the Venice inlets, has been performed, which allows for a better understanding of the processes and their seasonal dynamics. The results outline the predominance of wind and tidal forcing in the coastal area. Wind forcing acts mainly on the mean coastal current inducing its detachment offshore during Sirocco events and an increase of littoral currents during Bora events. The Bora action is more homogeneous on the whole coastal area whereas the Sirocco strengthens its impact in the South, near Chioggia inlet. Tidal forcing at the inlets is mainly barotropic. The sensitivity analysis shows how advection is the main physical process responsible for the persistent vortical structures present along the littoral between the Venice Lagoon inlets. The comparison with measurements from HF Radar not only permitted a validation the model results, but also a description of different patterns in specific periods of the year. The success of the 2D and the 3D simulations on the reproduction both of the SSE, inside and outside the Venice Lagoon, of the tidal flow, through the lagoon inlets, and of the small scale phenomena, occurring along the littoral, indicates that the finite element approach is the most suitable tool for the investigation of coastal processes. For the first time, as shown by the flux modeling, the physical processes that drive the interaction between the two basins were reproduced.

First the barotropic processes near the inlets of the Venice Lagoon have been studied. Data from more than ten tide gauges displaced in the Adriatic Sea have been used in the calibration of the simulated water levels. To validate the model results, empirical flux data measured by ADCP probes installed inside the inlets of Lido and Malamocco have been used and the exchanges through the three inlets of the Venice Lagoon have been analyzed. The comparison between modelled and measured fluxes at the inlets outlined the efficiency of the model to reproduce both tide and wind induced water exchanges between the sea and the lagoon. As a second step, also small scale processes around the inlets that connect the Venice lagoon with the Northern Adriatic Sea have been investigated by means of 3D simulations. Maps of vorticity have been produced, considering the influence of tidal flows and wind stress in the area. A sensitivity analysis has been carried out to define the importance of the advection and of the baroclinic pressure gradients in the development of vortical processes seen along the littoral close to the inlets. Finally a comparison with real data measurements, surface velocity data from HF Radar near the Venice inlets, has been performed, which allows for a better understanding of the processes and their seasonal dynamics. The results outline the predominance of wind and tidal forcing in the coastal area. Wind forcing acts mainly on the mean coastal current inducing its detachment offshore during Sirocco events and an increase of littoral currents during Bora events. The Bora action is more homogeneous on the whole coastal area whereas the Sirocco strengthens its impact in the South, near Chioggia inlet. Tidal forcing at the inlets is mainly barotropic. The sensitivity analysis shows how advection is the main physical process responsible for the persistent vortical structures present along the littoral between the Venice Lagoon inlets. The comparison with measurements from HF Radar not only permitted a validation the model results, but also a description of different patterns in specific periods of the year. The success of the 2D and the 3D simulations on the reproduction both of the SSE, inside and outside the Venice Lagoon, of the tidal flow, through the lagoon inlets, and of the small scale phenomena, occurring along the littoral, indicates that the finite element approach is the most suitable tool for the investigation of coastal processes. For the first time, as shown by the flux modeling, the physical processes that drive the interaction between the two basins were reproduced.

Abstract:
Several coralligenous reefs occur in the soft bottoms of the northern Adriatic continental shelf. Mediterranean coralligenous habitats are characterised by high species diversity and are intrinsically valuable for their biological diversity and for the ecological processes they support. The conservation and management of these habitats require quantifying spatial and temporal variability of their benthic assemblages. This PhD thesis aims to give a relevant contribution to the knowledge of the structure and dynamics of the epibenthic assemblages on the coralligenous subtidal reefs occurring in the northern Adriatic Sea. The epibenthic assemblages showed a spatial variation larger compared to temporal changes, with a temporal persistence of reef-forming organisms. Assemblages spatial heterogeneity has been related to morphological features and geographical location of the reefs, together with variation in the hydrological conditions. Manipulative experiments help to understand the ecological processes structuring the benthic assemblages and maintaining their diversity. In this regards a short and long term experiment on colonization patterns of artificial substrata over a 3-year period has been performed in three reefs, corresponding to the three main types of assemblages detected in the previous study. The first colonisers, largely depending by the different larval supply, played a key role in determining the heterogeneity of the assemblages in the early stage of colonisation. Lateral invasion, from the surrounding assemblages, was the driver in structuring the mature assemblages. These complex colonisation dynamics explained the high heterogeneity of the assemblages dwelling on the northern Adriatic biogenic reefs. The buildup of these coralligenous reefs mainly depends by the bioconstruction-erosion processes that has been analysed through a field experiment. Bioconstruction, largely due to serpulid polychaetes, prevailed on erosion processes and occurred at similar rates in all sites. Similarly, the total energy contents in the benthic communities do not differ among sites, despite being provided by different species. Therefore, we can hypothesise that both bioconstruction processes and energetic storage may be limited by the availability of resources. Finally the major contribution of the zoobenthos compared to the phytobenthos to the total energetic content of assemblages suggests that the energy flow in these benthic habitats is primarily supported by planktonic food web trough the filter feeding invertebrates.

Abstract:
Palinsesti Programmati nell’Alto Adriatico? Decifrare, conservare, comunicare e pianificare il paesaggio collects the proceedings of a single-day workshop focused on the multidisciplinary study of the Northern Adriatic landscapes. The authors of contributions address the issue of Northern Adriatic landscape, perceived as a palimpsest resulting from the interaction between man and the environment through time. Five case studies from different areas describe the methodology and techniques for deciphering the landscape and recognizing long-term occupation strategies and possible ties between the ancient landscape and nowadays.
