NETWORK THEORY IN ICHNOLOGY: FROM BEHAVIOURAL TOPOLOGY TO THE DEPOSITIONAL ENVIRONMENT
… environments of the Grado lagoon (Italy, Adriatic Sea), the Nurra ichnosite (Permian-Triassic; Italy) and the Pramollo ichnolagerstätte (Carboniferous-Permian; Italy) have been selected for developing, applying and testing network analysis for the study of ichnological systems. Results …

Mass-transport deposits on Mediterranean continental margins
… occurring during the late Quaternary on the SW-Adriatic and SE-Sicilian margins. These mass movements and their consequences contributed to shape the continental slopes and fill the basins with characteristic signatures. Geomorphological, seismo-stratigraphic, sedimentological and …

Response of Venice storm gates to incident waves
… to a channel of infinite length on the Adriatic side and to a semi infinite space on the lagoon side. Several theorems based on Green's formula are developed to get a deeper understanding of the physics of the problem and to check both the theory and the numerical computations performed. …

Investigating the role of human genomewide heterozygosity as a health risk factor
… samples from isolated communities of Croatian Adriatic islands, with a total of 1,930 adult examinees from Islands of Vis (N=986) and Korcula (N=944). Examinees were genotyped with a total of 302,662 single nucleotide polymorphisms. Heterozygosity was estimated using five commonly calculated …

Shallow and deep deformation in northern Apennines region using seismological data
… occur only in the outer part of the belt, on the Adriatic side. For the analysis of the deep deformation, i.e. that occurred in the mantle, we used the anisotropy information characterizing the structure below the Northern Apennines. The anisotropy is an earth properties that in the crust is due …
