Abstract
Monitoring processes of instability in mountain areas is essential in research in the alpine environment where permafrost reduction as a result of the relative rapidity of climate change, promotes geomorphological instability. It should be noted that monitoring in mountain environment is of great interest to the international scientific community so that the mountainous areas are among the most important "litmus paper" on the effects of global change. Scientific community is asked today to rapidly detect current evolution and changes in the different land units, but more than ever it must be able to transpose its own knowledge outdoor, by exporting a new manner to read landscape changes, molding a new generation of individuals acquainted and prepared. A step forward has been made in these years, concerning synergy between public bodies and research-institutions in order to form volunteers in the land-monitoring. In this work, some experiences will be reported in the NWItaly, which was hit by streamfloods, landslides, victims and damages. Some hundreds persons have been instructed with specific didactic activity, in the ambit of the organizations of civil protection volunteers, in order to real-time updating of surveys and data collected in sites exposed to geo-morphological risk scenarios. In the ambit of the instruments of reception of EU-Directive 2007/60, technical courses of civil protection have been developed. A recently financed regional announcement has allowed the public sharing of monitoring-issued data with the aim to ameliorating knowledge of local parameters in remote measurement sites, as mountain and hilly areas. To such shared operating system are connected land-data, derived from purposely-structured Apps into which may be stored data transmitted by conscious and prepared persons. The rapid effects of global change and the survey in a continuously changing landscape are requiring that everyone may have the chance to prepare itself adequately through a diffusely-and-correct knowledge.I documenti in IRIS sono protetti da copyright e tutti i diritti sono riservati, salvo diversa indicazione.
