    الوصف: Accurate identification and quantification of microplastic pollution in marine sediments are crucial for assessing their ecological impact. In this study, we explored the potential of Nuclear Magnetic Resonance (NMR) spectroscopy as an analytical tool for the analysis of microplastics in complex environmental matrices such as marine sediments. Two common plastic polymers, polystyrene (PS) and acrylonitrile butadiene styrene (ABS), were investigated. The marine sediments facing the Tiber River mouth (Italy) were collected according to a bathy-metric gradient. Results demonstrated the successful detection and quantification of PS in all sediment samples (within a range of 12.3-64.6 mu g/L), while no ABS significant signals were found. An increment trend with depth was observed in the PS signal, relatable to its physicochemical properties and the Tiber River plume hydrodynamic characteristics. The NMR's non-destructive nature and minimal sample preparation represent a promising avenue for standardizing protocols to assess the microplastic distribution and impact in marine sediments.

    الوصف: During the Copper Age and onwards, unique archaeological sites emerged throughout Europe. These sites exhibit distinct features such as the absence of typical household pottery, the presence of kilns, and extensive layers composed solely of fragments of reddish-brown jars. Scholars generally interpret these sites as specialized lo-cations for salt production through the technique of boiling saltwater, known as briquetage. In Italy, many of these sites are found along the Tyrrhenian coast and span from the Middle Bronze Age to the Roman era, with a particular concentration during the early Iron Age. However, the archaeological evidence in Italy differs from that of other European sites, suggesting that these Italian sites were not solely dedicated to salt production but also involved other economic activities. To delve deeper into the understanding of these sites and their socio-economic context, the University of Groningen initiated the Salt & Power: Early States, Rome and Resource Control project in 2021. The project aims to comprehensively analyze these sites and shed light on the production of salt within their broader societal and economic framework.In this contribution, we present prelimina r y findings derived from intensive surveys, coring campaigns, and geophysical investigations conducted at one such site, Piscina Torta. This site is believed to be connected to the city of Rome and dates back to the 7th and 6th centuries BCE. Furthermore, we propose a multidisciplina r y workflow for studying specialized sites, incorporating various research methodologies and disciplines.

    الوصف: Hydraulic complexity metrics referred to as M1 and M2 play an important role when it comes to the analysis of habitat metrics. In the present paper, the significance of these parameters is analysed by using laboratory data as well as field observations along the Tiber River in Italy. Based on the laboratory data, the estimated parameters allow us to characterise the high/low-velocity areas. Based on field observations, larger magnitudes of M1 are linked to the zones with large changes in cross-sectional flow velocity. Larger magnitudes of M2 are observed at the left bank of the channel for all flow conditions, suggesting locations with larger kinetic energy consumption for aquatic organisms. Overall, the findings of the present research would be of particular interest in quantifying biologically important flow patterns occurring at different spatial scales within different streams and flow conditions.

    الوصف: Study region: The municipality of Rome (Italy) and the Middle Tiber River valley. Study focus: Ordinary and residual flood risk assessment is a crucial topic in hydrology with a variety of practical implications for improving the extreme event management. Nowadays and in such context, the continuous hydrological-hydraulic modelling is an emerging approach and this study supports the conclusion that it can provide a very informative flood risk assessment. Moreover, when the study domain includes relevant and very expensive historical centers, like Rome, such methodology allows for a complete characterization of the risk providing the necessary information for decision-makers. New hydrological insights for the region: In the present work we illustrate an exhaustive flood risk assessment, quantifying the benefits of applying the hydrologic-hydraulic continuous modelling approach. Specifically, we verify that in the city of Rome flooding begins with events of 175 years return period which generates damage of hundreds of million euro. The flood-damage relationship as a function of return period, then, grows linearly up to floods with a return period of around 350 years, for which the majority of the historical town is flooded; then the estimated damages keep growing with the return period to reach a damage of about ten billion euros for 500 years flood events.

    الوصف: Starting from the complex problems affecting the contemporary waterfronts within the Climate Change phenomena, the author's glances are based on the belief that the dialectics between the civitas in its kaleidoscopic facets and the role of the city’s government institutions can become the main tool to bring out questions and debates, the stimulus to open new perspectives on the daily reality of the relationship between the “Urbs” and its river. The most famous myths and the humblest stories that intertwine along the Tiber are the catalyst and the source of inspiration for the author’s visions that intend to reawaken the collective memory of the Rome synergies with the Tiber.

    الوصف: A marble plaque found at Ostia, Rome’s harbour town, carries Latin inscriptions on both sides. Members of the professional association of lenuncularii, boatmen on the Tiber river, were the authors in both cases. Both sides are thought to contain a dedication to a Roman emperor of the late Antonine dynasty. A close reading of the earlier text shows the likelihood that instead of Commodus a local Ostian leader was the person being honoured. ; A marble plaque found at Ostia, Rome’s harbour town, carries Latin inscriptions on both sides.

    الوصف: To complete their life cycle, freshwater mussels of the order Unionida depend on fishes as hosts for their obligatory parasitic larval phase, the glochidium. Here we report the first documentation of gobioid fishes as hosts of glochidia of unionid mussels in the wild in Italy and in southern Europe (outside of the Danube drainage area). We also examined the pattern of the attached glochidia. A recent review reported 326 fish species as suitable hosts for unionids, but only eight (2.5%) of these were Gobioidei. Host identification and the documentation of their benefits or threats for the interaction of the mussels with their hosts is important for conservation of freshwater mussels. But the co-existence of mussels with non-native fish species is only poorly understood, including the compatibility of these two groups. Knipowitschia panizzae and Pomatoschistus canestrinii, two translocated sand gobies, were sampled in 2022 at the east shore of Lake Trasimeno (Italy). Two species of anodontine mussels were present at this locality, the native Anodonta anatina and the translocated Sinanodonta woodiana. Genetic data revealed that both sand gobies hosted glochidia only of A. anatina but not of S. woodiana, possibly because of seasonal bias. About 50% of the specimens of both fish species were infested. The paired fins were the most prominent targets. The examined individuals of both sand gobies carried only few glochidia (max. 5). Nevertheless, the two species showed a divergent pattern of glochidia attachment.

    الوصف: This study reports a high-resolution micromorphological characterization of floodplain deposits to investigate the relationships among compositional, textural and geotechnical data, and integrate soil micromorphology with sequence stratigraphy. Compositional and textural characterization of facies associations and soil features are calibrated against geotechnical parameters. The latter, obtained from cone penetration and pocket penetrometer tests from a borehole advanced 60 m into the Tiber channel belt and floodplain, show that depositional features and post-depositional modifications are intrinsically associated with cone penetration test parameters: cone resistance; sleeve friction; and friction ratio. Petrographic and micromorphological features document pedogenetic modifications across stratigraphic markers evidenced by faunal and plant activity, accumulation of peat, and typified by precipitation of heavy metals, iron oxides and secondary carbonates. All of these features developed in correspondence with alluvial flooding surfaces that are correlated with non-marine and marine flooding surfaces recognized in the transgressive and highstand coastal and lagoonal deposits of the Tiber Depositional Sequence. These observations may serve as a model to reconstruct the sequence-stratigraphic evolution of ancient relict soils. Nevertheless, additional criteria (for example, their stratigraphic position and correlative surfaces) are necessary to adequately interpret the genesis of such low-rank stratigraphic surfaces. This work demonstrates that a combination between sedimentological and stratigraphic observations and soil micromorphology can be critical to supplement field observations and determine the relative effect of pedogenic and depositional processes on the organization, composition and texture, and geotechnical properties of floodplain in urban areas
