Macchiarulo, V. (author), Milillo, Pietro (author), Blenkinsopp, Chris E. (author), Giardina, Giorgia (author)Ageing stock and extreme weather events pose a threat to the safety of infrastructure networks. In most countries, funding allocated to infrastructure management is insufficient to perform systematic inspections over large transport networks. As a result, early signs of distress can develop unnoticed, potentially leading to catastrophic...journal article 2022

Di Curzio, Diego (author), Di Giovanni, Alessia (author), Lidori, Raffaele (author), Montopoli, Mario (author), Rusi, Sergio (author)Accurate knowledge of the rain amount is a crucial driver in several hydrometeorological applications. This is especially true in complex orography territories, which are typically impervious, thus, leaving most mountain areas ungauged. Due to their spatial and temporal coverage, weather radars can potentially overcome such an issue. However,...journal article 2022

(author)Diagnostic morphological features (e.g., rectilinear seafloor scarps) and lateral offsets of the Upper Quaternary deposits are used to infer active faults in offshore areas. Although they deform a significant seafloor region, the active faults are not necessarily capable of producing large earthquakes as they correspond to shallow structures...journal article 2021
