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:
Maja Miše’s book Gnahia and Related Ware on the East Adriatic Coast is a timely addition to the field of Hellenistic pottery studies and an excellent overview of the regional occurrence of this well-known ware. M. presents in her book a thorough examination of the occurrence of Gnathia pottery in the East Adriatic and particularly focusses on defining the local Issaean production of this ware. The occurrence of Gnathia pottery in the East Adriatic is contrasted by M. with the production of the Ware in Southern Italy (the Ware’s area of inception), for which she devises a typological and developmental framework, sheds new light not only on the development of Gnathia pottery in Southern Italy but also across the Adriatic. M’s book is therefore an excellent overview of Gnathia pottery, its origin and development, distribution in southern Italy and in the Adriatic and attempts to view the occurrence of this important ware within a wider socio-economic context.

"Occurrence of Cuvier's beaked whales in the southern Adriatic Sea: evidence of an important Mediterranean habitat." Journal of the Marine Biological Association of the United Kingdom 87, no. 1 (February 2007): 359–62. http://dx.doi.org/10.1017/s0025315407055075.

Abstract:
The intent of this work is to summarize the available knowledge on the appearance, identification and distribution of Cuvier's beaked whales (Ziphius cavirostris) in the Adriatic Sea through a review of historical data, inspection of natural history collections and collection of original data. In total, eleven occurrences are documented of Cuvier's beaked whale along the Adriatic coast with all records originating from the deep southern Adriatic basin. The number of recorded stranded Cuvier's beaked whales in the southern Adriatic represents about 3% of the recorded specimens in the entire Mediterranean. This percentage increases up to about 5% when considering only data collected after the first recorded stranding of the recent era in 1975. Comparing these percentages to the extent of the area relative to the Mediterranean, the proportion of occurrence of the total stranded Cuvier's beaked whales in the southern Adriatic ranged between the same to double of that of the entire Mediterranean Sea. Therefore, the southern Adriatic Sea should be considered as a potentially relevant habitat of the Cuvier's beaked whale. This hypothesis has clear conservation implications particularly in view of the adverse impact of sonar experiments, carried out by navies from several countries, on this species and should be further investigated. Finally, there is no evidence of the northern bottlenose whale (Hyperoodon ampullatus) ever having occurred in this part of the Mediterranean region.

Abstract. An updated climatology, based on a comprehensive data set (1911–2009) of temperature, salinity and dissolved oxygen, has been produced for the whole Adriatic Sea with the variational inverse method using the DIVA (Data-Interpolating Variational Analysis) software. Climatological maps were produced at 26 levels and validated with ordinary cross-validation and with a real vs. synthetic temperature–salinity diagram intercomparison. The concept of climatology–observation misfit (COM) has been introduced as an estimate of the physical variability associated with the climatological structures. In order to verify the temporal stability of the climatology, long-term variability has been investigated in the Middle Adriatic and the South Adriatic pits, regarded as the most suitable records of possible long-term changes. Compared with previous climatologies, this study allows a clear identification of the seasonal dynamic of the southern Adriatic, where a clear oxygen minimum is typically observed in the centre of the South Adriatic Gyre. New and better resolved features emerged from this analysis: (1) below 100 m all properties profoundly differ between the central and the southern Adriatic and seem characterized by different biogeochemical dynamics; (2) the South Adriatic Pit clearly shows the remote effects of the Eastern Mediterranean Transient, while no effect is observed in the Middle Adriatic Pit; (3) the deepest part of the southern Adriatic seems now to be significantly saltier (+0.18 psu since the period 1910–1914, with an increase of +0.018 decade−1 since the late 1940s) and warmer (+0.54 °C since 1910–1914) even though a long-term temperature trend could not be statistically demonstrated; (4) the Middle Adriatic Pit shows a long-term increase in apparent oxygen utilization (+0.77 mL L−1 since 1910–1914, with a constant increase of +0.2 mL L−1 decade−1 after the 1970s).

Abstract This paper focuses on the interactions between the environment and human society from Late Antiquity to the Early Middle Ages in southern Apulia, at the heel of Italy, at the lower part of the Adriatic region. The results of recent archaeological investigations and palaeoenvironmental studies, has led us to establish a correlation between the indicators of extensive olive cultivation, the archaeological markers indicating the movement of goods either side of the Adriatic Sea, and Byzantine economic and political dominance over all or part of the region, as well as the lower Adriatic.

Abstract:
AbstractAnguillid leptocephali of three Congridae species (Conger conger, Ariosoma balearicum and Gnathophis mistax) were caught as bycatch of pelagic trawls during acoustic surveys targeting small pelagic fish species in the southern Adriatic Sea, carried out under the framework of the Italian MEDIAS project (western side) and its extension in the ambit of the FAO AdriaMed project (eastern side). Results refer to the findings of Congridae leptocephali during surveys conducted in 2011, 2014, 2015 and 2016. A total of 25 specimens were caught and analysed (morphological features and pigmentation patterns). Leptocephali of Conger conger were found in the range of 8.4–13.1 cm total length (TL) (between 50 and 132 m depth), Ariosoma balearicum from 9.7–12.2 cm TL (between 50 and 128 m depth) and for Gnathophis mystax in the range from 6.4–11.7 cm TL (between 40 and 79 m depth). The results indicate that the southern Adriatic Pit could be the spawning area of these species in the Adriatic Sea. Present data represent a contribution to existing knowledge about the ecology of leptocephali from the Congridae family in the southern Adriatic Sea, and also indicate the existence of differences in morphometric parameters between different areas, that is, the possibility of the existence of new geographic lines within the genus Ariosoma in the Adriatic Sea.

Abstract:
Recent ROV (Remotely Operated Vehicle) exploration and bottom sampling in the southern Adriatic Sea (Apulian and Montenegrin margins) resulted in the discovery of cnidarian-rich deep-sea habitats in the depth range of ca. 400-700 m. In particular, ROV inspection of Montenegrin canyons reveals the existence of megabenthic communities dominated by a variety of cnidarians, including scleractinians (Madrepora oculata, Lophelia pertusa, Dendrophyllia cornigera), antipatharians (Leiopathes glaberrima) and gorgonians (Callogorgia verticillata) as major habitat forming taxa, often in association with sponges and, subordinately, serpulids. All such cnidarians are new records for the southeastern side of the Adriatic Sea. Our investigation indicates that an almost continuous belt of patchy cold water coral sites occurs along the entire southwestern margin (Apulian), basically connecting the Adriatic populations with those inhabiting the Ionian margin (Santa Maria di Leuca coral province).

Abstract:
This research analyses the modes and outcomes of economic and social interaction, adopting a theoretical framework that merges elements of Marxism and social network thinking. The focus is on the Bronze Age societies constituting the interface between the Eastern Mediterranean and Europe, the area around the Southern Adriatic Sea in the period from the establishment of the first regular contacts with the Aegean world, up to the end of the 2nd millennium BC. The primary medium through which the examination is carried out is pottery from a number of key sites in the region, which is analysed through a variety of methodologies, including contextual and stylistic comparison as well as formal network analyses. The study is organized as a diachronic enquiry in which evidence from a large number of contexts (examined in relation to both consumption and production) is deployed to discuss the development of three nested scales through which interaction took place. The first of these scales is the individual community, with the main case study provided by the long lived site of Roca in Apulia, which has yielded the largest amount of Aegean type material retrieved to date west of Greece. This material is largely unpublished and is comprehensively analysed for the first time. The second scale considers the region of Apulia on the western side of the Adriatic, which was the focus of intense interaction with the Aegean world during the second half of the 2nd millennium BC. The final scale encompasses much of the Mediterranean and assesses the long term and large scale implications of the phenomena observed at the site and region levels. The results of this study highlight the critical role played by southern Adriatic societies in establishing and maintaining interaction with other areas of the Mediterranean, and stresses at the same time the important social implications of such linkages.

Abstract:
This volume is a collection of the work done in a three years-lasting PhD, focused in the analysis of Central and Southern Adriatic marine sediments, deriving from the collection of a borehole and many cores, achieved thanks to the good seismic-stratigraphic knowledge of the study area. The work was made out within European projects EC-EURODELTA (coordinated by Fabio Trincardi, ISMAR-CNR), EC-EUROSTRATAFORM (coordinated by Phil P. E. Weaver, NOC, UK), and PROMESS1 (coordinated by Serge Bernè, IFREMER, France). The analysed sedimentary successions presented highly expanded stratigraphic intervals, particularly for the last 400 kyr, 60 kyr and 6 kyr BP. These three different time-intervals resulted in a tri-partition of the PhD thesis. The study consisted of the analysis of planktic and benthic foraminifers’ assemblages (more than 560 samples analysed), as well as in preparing the material for oxygen and carbon stable isotope analyses, and interpreting and discussing the obtained dataset. The chronologic framework of the last 400 kyr was achieved for borehole PRAD1-2 (within the work-package WP6 of PROMESS1 project), collected in 186.5 m water depth. The proposed chronology derives from a multi-disciplinary approach, consisting of the integration of numerous and independent proxies, some of which analysed by other specialists within the project. The final framework based on: micropaleontology (calcareous nannofossils and foraminifers’ bioevents), climatic cyclicity (foraminifers’ assemblages), geochemistry (oxygen stable isotope, made out on planktic and benthic records), paleomagnetism, radiometric ages (14C AMS), teprhochronology, identification of sapropel-equivalent levels (Se). It’s worth to note the good consistency between the oxygen stable isotope curve obtained for borehole PRAD1-2 and other deeper Mediterranean records. The studied proxies allowed the recognition of all the isotopic intervals from MIS10 to MIS1 in PRAD1-2 record, and the base of the borehole has been ascribed to the early MIS11. Glacial and interglacial intervals identified in the Central Adriatic record have been analysed in detail for the paleo-environmental reconstruction, as well. For instance, glacial stages MIS6, MIS8 and MIS10 present peculiar foraminifers’ assemblages, composed by benthic species typical of polar regions and no longer living in the Central Adriatic nowadays. Moreover, a deepening trend in the paleo-bathymetry during glacial intervals was observed, from MIS10 (inner-shelf environment) to MIS4 (mid-shelf environment).Ten sapropel-equivalent levels have been recognised in PRAD1-2 Central Adriatic record. They showed different planktic foraminifers’ assemblages, which allowed the first distinction of events occurred during warm-climate (Se5, Se7), cold-climate (Se4, Se6 and Se8) and temperate-intermediate-climate (Se1, Se3, Se9, Se’, Se10) conditions, consistently with literature. Cold-climate sapropel equivalents are characterised by the absence of an oligotrophic phase, whereas warm-temeprate-climate sapropel equivalents present both the oligotrophic and the eutrophic phases (except for Se1). Sea floor conditions vary, according to benthic foraminifers’ assemblages, from relatively well oxygenated (Se1, Se3), to dysoxic (Se9, Se’, Se10), to highly dysoxic (Se4, Se6, Se8) to events during which benthic foraminifers are absent (Se5, Se7). These two latter levels are also characterised by the lamination of the sediment, feature never observed in literature in such shallow records. The enhanced stratification of the water column during the events Se8, Se7, Se6, Se5, Se4, and the concurring strong dilution of shallow water, pointed out by the isotope record, lead to the hypothesis of a period of intense precipitation in the Central Adriatic region, possibly due to a northward shift of the African Monsoon. Finally, the expression of Central Adriatic PRAD1-2 Se5 equivalent was compared with the same event, as registered in other Eastern Mediterranean areas. The sequence of substantially the same planktic foraminifers’ bioevents has been consistently recognised, indicating a similar evolution of the water column all over the Eastern Mediterranean; yet, the synchronism of these events cannot be demonstrated. A high resolution analysis of late Holocene (last 6000 years BP) climate change was carried out for the Adriatic area, through the recognition of planktic and benthic foraminifers’ bioevents. In particular, peaks of planktic Globigerinoides sacculifer (four during the last 5500 years BP in the most expanded core) have been interpreted, based on the ecological requirements of this species, as warm-climate, arid intervals, correspondent to periods of relative climatic optimum, such as, for instance, the Medieval Warm Period, the Roman Age, the Late Bronze Age and the Copper Age. Consequently, the minima in the abundance of this biomarker could correspond to relatively cooler and more rainy periods. These conclusions are in good agreement with the isotopic and the pollen data. The Last Occurrence (LO) of G. sacculifer has been dated in this work at an average age of 550 years BP, and it is the best bioevent approximating the base of the Little Ice Age in the Adriatic. Recent literature reports the same bioevent in the Levantine Basin, showing a rather consistent age. Therefore, the LO of G. sacculifer has the potential to be extended to all the Eastern Mediterranean. Within the Little Ice Age, benthic foraminifer V. complanata shows two distinct peaks in the shallower Adriatic cores analysed, collected hundred kilometres apart, inside the mud belt environment. Based on the ecological requirements of this species, these two peaks have been interpreted as the more intense (cold and rainy) oscillations inside the LIA. The chronologic framework of the analysed cores is robust, being based on several range-finding 14C AMS ages, on estimates of the secular variation of the magnetic field, on geochemical estimates of the activity depth of 210Pb short-lived radionuclide (for the core-top ages), and is in good agreement with tephrochronologic, pollen and foraminiferal data. The intra-holocenic climate oscillations find out in the Adriatic have been compared with those pointed out in literature from other records of the Northern Hemisphere, and the chronologic constraint seems quite good. Finally, the sedimentary successions analysed allowed the review and the update of the foraminifers’ ecobiostratigraphy available from literature for the Adriatic region, thanks to the achievement of 16 ecobiozones for the last 60 kyr BP. Some bioevents are restricted to the Central Adriatic (for instance the LO of benthic Hyalinea balthica , approximating the MIS3/MIS2 boundary), others occur all over the Adriatic basin (for instance the LO of planktic Globorotalia inflata during MIS3, individuating Dansgaard-Oeschger cycle 8 (Denekamp)).

Abstract:
2010/2011
Continuous measurements are strictly essential to better understand the deep convection as well as for monitoring the seasonal and interannual thermohaline variability in the ocean. For these reasons, the south Adriatic Sea has been constantly monitored by means of the E2M3A deep observational site, located in its central part (Latitude 41° 50’ N, Longitude 17° 45’ E, maximum depth 1250m) since 2006. Temperature, salinity and current time series collected between 2006 and 2010 are analysed in this thesis and they represent the longest time series available for this region. Moreover, these time series are merged with Conductivity-Temperature-Depth (CTD) profiles obtained from several oceanographic cruises to provide the necessary spatial distribution of data for describing the thermohaline properties in the study area. The analysis of the data presented here shows that winter 2007 was characterized by a weak convection, while winter 2008 and following winters revealed a stronger deep convection able to reach 800-900m in February 2008. Time series highlight the abrupt temperature (T) and salinity (S) decrease, noticeable down to 600-700m depth from March 2008 on. The intermediate layer experienced a maximum decrease in T and S of ~0.4°C and ~0.06 respectively, clearly evident after each strong winter convection phase. The bottom layer (~1200m), instead, shows an opposite behaviour: it suffered a continuous T and S increase (linear trend of ~0.05 °C y-1 and ~0.004 y-1, respectively) during the whole observational period. These changes are discussed in a context of strong relationship between the variability of the Ionian surface circulation recently discovered, and the heat and salt content changes in the South Adriatic presented in this study. The results show that the mechanism triggering the salt content changes in the South Adriatic is based mainly on the winter convection, which transfers surface fresher water towards deeper layers. Nevertheless, current measurements also indicate that the passage of mesoscale eddies in the region can produce sudden thermohaline perturbations along the water column for 10-15 days. Cyclonic eddies seem to be more frequent in the proximity of the observational site than the anticyclonic ones. Interestingly, the comparison between time series and satellite images (Chl-a surface distribution) reveals, for the first time, that the vortices act along the whole water column. Their passage produces a twofold effect: the contribution to the re-stratification of the water column during the post convection phase, by exchanging the buoyancy between the mixed path and the surrounding waters, and the transfer of heat and salt between the deep and the intermediate layers.
Misure oceanografiche in continuo sono essenziali per comprendere meglio il processo di formazione delle acque dense e per monitorare la variabilità termoalina stagionale e interannuale in oceano. Per queste ragioni, a partire dal 2006 il Sud Adriatico è stato costantemente monitorato grazie all’utilizzo del sito di osservazione denominato E2M3A, ancorato nella parte centrale del Sud Adriatico (latitudine 41° 50’ N, longitudine 17° 45’ E, profondità massima 1250m). Le serie temporali di temperatura, salinità e correnti marine raccolte tra il 2006 e il 2010 sono analizzate in questa tesi e rappresentano la serie di dati più lunga mai ottenuta in questa regione. Oltretutto, per fornire la necessaria copertura spaziale dei dati utile a descrivere le proprietà termoaline nell’area di studio, le serie temporali sono state integrate con profili CTD (Conductivity-Temperature-Depth) provenienti da diverse crociere oceanografiche. L’analisi dei dati presentata qui mostra che l’inverno 2007 è stato caratterizzato da una debole convezione, mentre l’inverno 2008 e i successivi hanno mostrato una convezione più intensa, capace di raggiungere 800-900m di profondità a Febbraio 2008. Le serie temporali evidenziano una diminuzione repentina di temperatura (T) e salinità (S), visibile fino a 600-700m a partire da Marzo 2008. Lo strado intermedio ha subito rispettivamente una diminuzione massima di T e S di ~0.4°C e ~0.06, chiaramente evidente a seguito di ogni fase di intensa convezione invernale. Lo strato di fondo (~1200m) ha mostrato invece un comportamento opposto: un inaspettato e continuo aumento di T and S (trend lineare ~0.05 °C y-1 e ~0.004 y-1, rispettivamente) durante tutto il periodo di studio. Questi cambiamenti sono discussi nell’ambito della forte relazione tra la variabilità della circolazione superficiale dello Ionio recentemente scoperta e i cambiamenti nel contenuto di calore e sale del Sud Adriatico presentati in questo studio. I risultati mostrano che il meccanismo in grado di produrre cambiamenti nel contenuto di sale nel Sud Adriatico è principalmente basato sulla convezione invernale, che trasferisce acqua superficiale meno salata verso strati più profondi. Tuttavia, le misure di corrente mostrano che anche il passaggio di vortici a mesoscala può indurre repentine perturbazioni delle proprietà termoaline lungo la colonna d’acqua anche per 10-15 giorni. Vortici di tipo ciclonico sembrano essere più frequenti in prossimità del mooring rispetto a quelli di tipo anticiclonico. È interessante notare che il confronto tra le serie temporali e le immagini da satellite della distribuzione superficiale di clorofilla-a rivela, per la prima volta in questa regione, che i vortici agiscono su tutta la colonna d’acqua. Il loro passaggio produce un duplice effetto: il contributo alla ri-stratificazione della colonna d’acqua a seguito della fase di convezione invernale e il trasferimento di calore e sale tra gli strati intermedio e profondo.

Abstract:
In many studies of coastal management, it is essential to have a reasonable estimate of sediment transport. Several models, both with deterministic mathematical framework and datadriven one, were built by numerous researchers to predict bed material transport. In this works, therefore, the GSTA method will be applied to an irregular distribution of samples to obtain a sediment transport model characteristic of the Sentina beach, located in the municipality of San Benedetto del Tronto at the southern boundary of the Marche Region. The results will be compared with those obtained from the application of the standard Gao & Collins (1992) method and with some modifications. General transport paths in the whole study area, without uncovered areas, were obtained through a regular grid of points. A two cells circulation system was highlighted as a result of a sea storm from 95°-105°N. To this purpose morphological surveys of the whole beach, both emerged and submerged, were performed in the period 2012-2015. Particularly were carried out: seabed bathymetric surveys, reliefs of the beach profiles and shoreline position in different periods, sampling and grain size analysis of sediments taken both in the emerged and submerged beach. The monitoring testified that the Sentina beach is affected by strong erosion phenomena: in the last years most of the seaward surface (about 23.000 m2 for a trend of 4,3 m/year and a volume equal to 135.000 m3) of the beach has disappeared (period 2012-2015) and the landward border has constantly retreated at the expense of the existing lagoons environment. In this way a general set back of the whole beach environment was happened.

Abstract:
Il sistema scolastico meridionale, nel periodo 1806 - 1861, presenta gradi di efficienza diversi per ciascuno dei tre comparti dell’istruzione qui considerati (istruzione primaria, agraria e secondaria). Per quanto riguarda la scuola primaria, si evidenzia una realtà molto fragile, imputabile principalmente alla povertà dei comuni, che dovevano sopportare i relativi costi. Per i docenti, erano previsti bassissimi livelli stipendiali, che si traducevano in competenze inadeguate. Per quanto riguarda l’istruzione agraria, il governo ebbe il merito di diffonderla in tutto il Regno nel 1840, nel contesto di un organico progetto di riforma. Le scuole di agricoltura si segnalarono tuttavia per una attivazione solo parziale e per un funzionamento incerto, afflitto dai medesimi problemi riscontrabili nella scuola primaria: povertà di risorse, carenza di insegnanti, precari edifici scolastici. In riferimento all’istruzione superiore, il quadro è differente. Collegi e licei possedevano infatti un finanziamento misto, derivante in parte da fondi provinciali e comunali, e in parte dalle rette dei convittori. Le più solide basi economiche consentirono un’ampia offerta didattica, che spaziava fino ai corsi universitari. Quanto ai docenti, a differenza di ciò che accadeva nella scuola primaria, le retribuzioni erano assolutamente dignitose, e questo si traduceva in un’elevata professionalità.
The educational system of Southern Italy since 1806 to 1861 presents different levels of efficiency for any of the three branches of education taken into consideration in this research (primary school, secondary school and schools of agriculture). As for primary school, it was a very frail system, mainly due to the poverty of municipalities, which, according to the law, had to support it. Teachers used to have poor salaries, and, as a consequence, had few skills. As regards the schools of agriculture, the government tried to establish them in the whole Kingdom in 1840, according to a organic government bill. Anyway these schools arose only in one third of the municipalities, and had serious problems, such as scarcity of resources, lack of teachers, and badly-furnished buildings. As for secondary school, the situation is very different. Colleges were financed not only by municipalities and local governments, but also by boarders. Sounder economic bases meant a wide supply of courses, sometimes ranging to university disciplines. Unlike their colleagues of primary school, teachers had relatively good salaries, and, consequently, good professional skills.

Abstract:
The multimodal door-to-door transport chain connecting Central Europe with Far East origins predominantly calls the North European ports. However, already the geographic features are dictating the reasonable possibility of routes’ redirection via several alternatives through the Mediterranean Sea. This study represents the continuation of the research in terms of analysis and evaluation of the Southern European freight transport flow through the Northern Adriatic. The aim was to elaborate further on the justification of the possible redirection of cargoes via the Adriatic corridor. In these terms, the land segment of the transport chain from ports to the final destination was isolated and analysed. The authors were primarily guided by natural features, that are respective geographical locations and their mutual distances. For this purpose, container transport on two traffic flows was simulated, with emphasis on the land segment between the second (destination) port and the final destination. Considering the usual freight lines, the door-to-door container transport between origin and destination was selected. Both road and rail transportation modes were investigated. Besides general parameters, such as distances, time, and fuel consumption, the environmental impact for all scenarios was determined for both downstream and final fuel cycle processes. In these terms, basic environmental parameters for four possible scenarios were calculated: energy consumption, emissions of carbon dioxide, greenhouse gases, nitrogen oxides, sulphur dioxide, non-methane hydrocarbons, and particulate matter. Results are indicating that, together with a significant reduction of sea transportation impacts on the environment, the eventual redirection contributes to emissions’ mitigation and the sustainability of transportation. These results are accompanied by several initiatives in the area. Apart from potential benefits, the findings were discussed from the reliability point of view, i.e. the ability of Northern Adriatic ports and the land infrastructure to successfully take over this task, at least to a certain extent, and finally, in a reasonable future.

Abstract:
The hilly area of Central Italy represents one of the most original characteristics of Italian agrarian system distinguished by a particular form and technique of land management, la Mezzadria (sharecropping), which was a contract stipulated between a landowner and the farmer, reflected in the construction of open space as well as artifacts. The structure of rural settlements typical of sharecropping is a mosaic of terrains with scattered farmhouses (case coloniche), connected by a dense road network. The architecture of these structures is always the same with only slight variations articulated by the form of the terrain and in relationship with their use and the road pathways, and is characterised by a rectangular plan with the rooms dispersed on two floors and an external staircase which is the prevalent distinguishing trait. Sharecropping rural heritage represents an important case study for the analysis and cataloguing of vernacular architecture since artifacts come from precise needs linked to the social and cultural life of the farming family. This paper investigates vernacular rural architecture in Central Italy, particularly in the mid-Adriatic in the southern Marche Region, by building up an investigative and categorization method: selecting precise geographical areas where the original farmhouses have first been identified by studying historical maps of the 19th century before moving on to in situ exploration. Photography has also been a useful instrument for constructing the taxonomy of rural ruins which today are in a state of total abandonment; showing the photographs next to each other allows us to more clearly identify and understand subtle differences and suggest a reuse of the buildings.
