Within the framework of the initiatives for the dissemination of Earth Sciences knowledge promoted by the Geological Survey of ISPRA, a project called “Conoscere la Geodiversità” was proposed to secondary school students. In particular, the project was carried out with four fourth-year classes of a scientific high school in Cisterna di Latina.

The geological heritage, by its intrinsic nature, holds scientific, environmental, cultural, and touristrecreational value. Fundamental elements of geological heritage are geosites. Geosites represent a distributed archive of non-renewable natural resources that allow for the recognition, study, and interpretation of the evolution of Earth’s geolog...
Since the early 2000s the Italian peninsula geoheritage has been catalogued to promote the conservation and the dissemination of geological knowledge (Giovagnoli, 2023). The Italian Geosites Inventory is a free access geodatabase, in which users can consult, around them and in the territories they wish to discover, places where it is possible to ap...
On the occasion of the centenary of the 1908 earthquake, with the aim of reconstructing the most complete picture possible of the effects induced on the environment , related descriptions and testimonies were searched for in the sources of that time, e.g. newspapers, magazines, Official Gazette, specific technical reports and books. A number of des...

The review of all available contemporary documents, i.e., technical and photographic reports, newspapers, and other archive material, of the 1908, M 7.1, Messina–Reggio Calabria earthquake has allowed to recognize and classify a large number (365) of independent environmental effects of the earthquake and the subsequent tsunami. The effects have be...
Through the recording of historical and recent events data, three different landslides inventory of the Messina town territory have been created. The first collects information about localization and date of historical landslides occurred between the XVI century and 2011. The second collects ground effects induced by the 1908 earthquake registered...

INQUINAMENTO ATMOSFERICO E SALUTE DEI BAMBINI IN CITTÀ
I potenziali impatti sulla salute derivanti dall’inquinamento atmosferico dipendono da diversi fattori quali la tipologia e la miscela degli in quinati presenti, la loro concentrazione, il tempo di esposizione e le dimensioni delle particelle che ne influenzano la capacità di penetrazione nell’...
The project results of the study led by ENEA in the area of the Messina Municipality is presented in this paper. After the disaster occurred on October 1st 2009, the Messina Municipality asked our team to carry on the landslide hazard assessment of its whole territory. The project actions have been addressed to realize a landslide inventory, a trig...
The use of the term "capable fault" instead of the more generic "active fault", is to be preferred when dealing with faults, that, more than being simply active, have the capability to cut or deform the ground surface, generally in association, but not exclusively, with seismic events. Such faults are the most relevant from the societal ha zard vie...
Five hundred and two different testimonies of coseismic environmental effects of the 1908
Southern Calabria-Messina earthquake have been identified and catalogued, based on a
careful screening of contemporary documents, i.e. technical and photographic reports,
newspapers and other archive material. Out of the 348 independent occurrences, landslides...
502 different testimonies of coseismic environmental effects of the 1908 Southern Calabria-Messina earthquake have been identified and catalogued, based on a careful screening of contemporary documents, i.e. technical and photographic reports, newspapers and other archive material. Out of the 348 independent occurrences, landslides are the most rep...
Earthquake Environmental Effects (EEE) are the effects produced by an earthquake on the natural environment, either directly linked to the earthquake source or triggered by the ground shaking. These include surface faulting, regional uplift and subsidence, tsunamis, liquefaction, ground resonance, landslides, and ground failure phenomena. The EEE c...

The Italian Catalogue of Earthquake Environmental Effects
The December 28, 1908, Southern Calabria - Messina earthquake (Intensity
MCS XI, Mw 7.24; Stucchi et al, 2007) was the strongest seismic event of
the 20th century in Italy and the most ruinous in terms of casualties
(at least 80,000). According to Michelini et al. (2005) its epicentre
was located at sea in the southern part of the Messina Straits....
Effetti sull'ambiente conseguenti al terremoto del 28 dicembre 1908. Quasi 450 descrizioni relative a 290 effetti ambientali: lo studio delle fonti bibliografiche finalizzato alla comprensione dei fenomeni sismo-indotti.
The December 28, 1908, Southern Calabria -Messina earthquake (I MCS XI, esti-mated magnitude 7.2) was one of the strongest seismic events that rocked Italy during historical times and the most ruinous in terms of casualties (at least 80,000). Accord-ing to most reconstructions, its epicentre was located at sea in the Messina Straits. The impact of...
