Recent subsidence of the Venice Lagoon from continuous GPS and interferometric synthetic aperture radar
[1] Coastal regions are increasingly affected by larger storms and rising sea level predicted by global warming models, aggravating the situation in the city of Venice where tidal-induced seasonal flooding coupled with natural and anthropogenic subsidence have been perennial problems. In light of accelerated efforts to protect Venice from the rise in sea level we assess land subsidence in the V...
متن کاملA Dna Algorithm for the Batimetric Mapping in the Lagoon of Venice Using Quickbird Multispectral Data
During the last decade, several studies have focused on the use of passive multispectral remote sensing to derive the bathymetry in coastal zone. In particular, data acquired with the SPOT and the Landsat TM/ETM+ sensors have been used to derive models of bathymetry at medium scales. Until now, the successful application of passive remote sensing techniques to bathymetry mapping was restricted ...
متن کاملBiodiversity of Coastal Lagoon Ecosystems and Their Vulnerability to Global Change
In this chapter we define coastal lagoons according the definition proposed by Kjerfve (1994) as “shallow water bodies separated from the ocean by a barrier, connected at least intermittently to the ocean by one or more restricted inlets, and usually oriented shoreparallel”. This definition is given in an introduction chapter of a multiauthor book edited by Kjerfve (1994). Nevertheless, in the ...
متن کاملNatural Recovery and Planned Intervention in Coastal Wetlands: Venice Lagoon (Northern Adriatic Sea, Italy) as a Case Study
The goals of conservation and sustainable use of environmental ecosystems have increased the need for detailed knowledge of ecological evolution and responses to both anthropogenic pressures and recovery measures. The present study shows the effects of natural processes and planned intervention in terms of reducing nutrient inputs in a highly exploited coastal lagoon, describing its evolution o...
متن کاملThe tidal and wind induced hydrodynamics of the composite system Adriatic Sea/Lagoon of Venice
A shallow water hydrostatic 2D hydrodynamic numerical model, based on the boundary conforming coordinate system, was used to simulate aspects of both general and small scale oceanic features occurring in the composite system constituted by the Adriatic Sea and the Lagoon of Venice (Italy), under the influence of tide and realistic atmospheric forcing. Due to a specific technique for the treatme...
