Hydrogeology of continental southern Italy

Report of a Physical Oceanography Research Project over the Southern Continental Shelf of the Caspian Sea

Abstract The study presents monthly variations of seawater properties, monitoring water column stability and stratification over the southern shelf of the Caspian Sea which depends on collecting data. Field measurements were carried out during 13 cruises along the southern boundary of the sea. Spatial and temporal distributions of temperature, salinity and density were investigated. Monthl...

Low Incidence of Stroke in Southern Italy

Background and Purpose—Although a lower incidence of stroke has been observed in the Mediterranean area compared to other European countries, this is based on only a few studies. We sought to determine the incidence and 28-day case-fatality of stroke through a population-based stroke register in a rural area in Southern Italy, characterized by a stroke unit in the referral hospital. Methods—We ...

Karst Hydrogeology and Geomorphology

Geomatics in hydrogeology

Design and construction of hydrogeological information systems is now a necessity. For proper functionality of these systems, it is necessary to create them in accordance with widely accepted international standards regarding geospatial information. Geomatics research tools allow for creation of basic models of hydrogeological data, consistent with these standards. The models can be based upon ...
