| description | This work, carried out with an integrated methodological approach, focuses
on the use of near surface geophysics techniques, such as ground penetrating
radar and electrical resistivity tomography (ERT), and geomorphological
analysis, in order to reconstruct the cave distribution and geometry in a
urban context and, in particular, in historical centres. The interaction
during recent centuries between human activity (caves excavation, birth and
growth of an urban area) and the characters of the natural environment were
the reasons of a progressive increase in hazard and vulnerability levels of
several sites. The reconstruction of a detailed cave map distribution is the
first step to define the anthropic and geomorphological hazard in urban
areas, fundamental basis for planning and assessing the risk. |
