Pliocene (?)—early Pleistocene shallow marine deposits, varying from gravel to sand clay, characterize the southernmost sector of Valdichiana Basin, between Orte and Città della Pieve, across Tuscany, Umbria Latium (Central Italy). Facies associations, referring evolution a river-fed coast, with sensible facies heteropy, sub-environment articulation, both alongshore, have been recently describe...

A new interpretation of the Middle Jurassic-Early Cretaceous paleogeographic evolution NW sector Latium-Abruzzi carbonate platform facing Umbria-Marche Basin is proposed, based on Monte Giano area (central Apennines, Italy). During Late Triassic-early Bajocian time, was characterized by shallow water sedimentation. Inner and marginal deposits are overlain pelagic (Posidonia level), early p.p. i...

Abstract Sorghum halepense is a synanthropic tall grass distributed worldwide from tropical to temperate zones, and it often considered an invasive alien. It perennial, rhizomatous plant that tends form dense stands derived vegetative sexual propagation. Despite roadside communities dominated by are very common in southern Europe, their phytosociological aspects scarcely studied. In this work, ...

Mediterranean almond growing is increasing, as confirmed in Italy where new orchards areas not previously interested this nut crop have been recently established. In these areas, the coastal of Latium region, knowledge eco-physiological behavior a complex interaction among cultivars, pedoclimate conditions and orchard management still poor. Optimizing fertilization strategies according to culti...
