From knowledge to conservation: the hypogeum trappeto of Melpignano (LE, Apulia, Italy)

Di Fusco G.; Ferrari I.; Giuri F.; Malerba A.; Monte A.; Quarta G.

The paper illustrates the first results of a study on an ancient production site of the industrial heritage of the Terra d'Otranto in South Italy: the trappeto of Melpignano in province of Lecce. It is an hypogeum oil mill for the production of oil for lighting. To understand the history of architectural transformations that involved the site over time a careful historical-archival research and a campaign of 3D architectural surveys using laser scanners and digital photogrammetry were carried out. Furthermore, a specific diagnostic survey, consisting in mapping of main alteration patterns, sampling and scientific analyses of materials and their alteration products was carried; all obtained data are useful for the following restoration and conservation project.

The Acait of Tricase (LE, Apulia, Italy): an agricultural cooperative for tobacco production. Surveys and conservation status

Calia A.; Ferrari I.; Giuri F.; Monte A.; Quarta G.; Vasanelli E.

The tobacco industry in Puglia has been for about a century the main economic resource for the farmers and the dealers. The first processing with Levantine tobacco began in Terra d'Otranto (the current provinces of Lecce, Brindisi and Taranto) between the late XIX and early XX centuries and were linked to the Agricultural Consortium of the Capo di Leuca territory (from 1938 Acait - Società Cooperativa Agricola Industriale del Capo di Leuca). Acait was the first cooperative agricultural consortium of the Terra d'Otranto born in Tricase (Lecce, Italy) in December 1902. In 2003 the municipality of Tricase acquired the historic factory, considered a "monument" of the industrial heritage of southern Italy, as a peculiar economic, social and human testimony of the territory. In 2018, the southern part of building was affected by a collapse. Given the high value of this industrial heritage artifact, a restoration project of the entire building was promoted. The paper illustrates some results of an ongoing study that combines data from historical-archival research with an architectural survey campaign and diagnostic analyses on the state of conservation.

The Roman amphitheater of Venosa (Basilicata, southern Italy): 3D survey and reconstruction

Ferrari I.; Giuri F.; Lazzari M.

The Roman amphitheater of Venosa (Potenza, southern Italy) is one of the experimental sites chosen as part of the IDEHA project (Innovation for Data Processing in Heritage Areas) in the Basilicata region, of which the CNR ISPC was scientific coordinator. This contribution presents the new results of the research more closely linked to the technical and constructive aspects of the monument, achieved starting from the instrumental survey performed with integrated techniques of laser scanning and digital photogrammetry. The metric data collected was integrated with those no longer visible that emerged during the archaeological excavation campaigns, which took place in 1841, 1925 and then in the 1980s and from a careful reconnaissance of the collapsed architectural elements present in situ. Despite the poor conditions of the wall structures, subject to centuries of abandonment and spoliations, it was possible to develop a reconstructive proposal for the amphitheater, with the creation of a three-dimensional model in which they critically merged all the collected data.

Unveiling the Hidden Past: exploring the historical evolution of Borbona (Rieti, Italy) through archaeological surveys and geophysical prospections

Marilena Cozzolino, Vincenzo Gentile, Cecilia Giorgi, Paolo Mauriello1

The research project aims to uncover the unknown territory and trace its origins. It's conducted by the ISPC CNR to study the historical and archaeological context of Borbona (Rieti, Italy) with the collaboration of the Department of Agricultural Environmental and Food Sciences (University of Molise) for the geophysical prospections. Despite the limited historical and archaeological studies on Borbona, unexpected discoveries emerged during the research. Through various activities, including surveys and analysis of findings, the project has identified ancient habitation areas and significant Roman architectural fragments. The research seeks to transmit the history and culture of Borbona to future generations, fostering a sense of belonging. Protecting historical heritage and areas at archaeological risk, enhancing and promoting existing cultural assets, represent fundamental actions to increase the country's attractiveness in the present and preserve its identity in the future.

Italian winegrowers' and wine makers' attitudes toward climate hazards and their strategy of adaptation to the change

Chieco C.; Morrone L.; Magli M.; Gelmetti A.; Pedo S.; Roman T.; Stefanini M.; Rossi F.; Battistel G.A.; Eccel E.

This study reports the results of a survey disseminated to Italian winegrowers and wine makers to understand their attitude toward the main climate risk factors on grape and wine productions and their willingness to proactively act in facing the related consequences. A general noticeable concern about the future effects of climate change and variability emerged, even with some differences between stakeholders operating in different geographic and climatic areas. Current signals of adaptation mostly emerged at technological level, but they also included the varietal choice, with evidence to a switch from traditional varieties to others showing better pest and drought tolerance. In addition, some climate-smart cultural practices are considered ranging from water-saving irrigation methods to sustainable energy management.

This research aims to provide a comprehensive overview of the key demographic, psychosocial, and lifestyle-related characteristics of forest therapy participants in Italy. A survey was conducted among 1070 adults who had engaged in standardized forest therapy experiences between June 2021 and October 2022. The findings indicate that most forest therapy participants in Italy share certain distinctive traits. They are primarily female, aged between 45 and 54 years, employed, and unmarried. Moreover, they possess a high level of education, predominantly reside in urban areas, demonstrate a strong environmental awareness, maintain a nature-oriented attitude, and typically exhibit moderate levels of trait anxiety. Additionally, they tend to be nonsmokers, possess a healthy BMI within the normal range, and consume an adequate quantity of fruits and vegetables on a daily basis. However, it should be noted that their male counterparts tend to be overweight and exhibit poorer dietary habits. Irrespective of gender, approximately 40% of forest therapy participants in Italy live with a chronic disease that requires daily medicinal treatment. Subsequent research should investigate whether these characteristics hold true in different countries. Furthermore, exploring the potential effectiveness of health-promoting interventions integrated with forest therapy sessions could prove beneficial in addressing these specific issues among forest therapy participants. By doing so, such interventions have the potential to contribute significantly to public health promotion and overall community well-being.

Scientists' attitudes about citizen science at Long-Term Ecological Research (LTER) sites

Alba L'Astorina, Cathlyn Davis, Alessandra Pugnetti, Alessandro Campanaro, Alessandro Oggioni and Caterina Bergami

A profound transformation, in recent decades, is promoting shifts in the ways ecological science is produced and shared; as such, ecologists are increasingly encouraged to engage in dialogues with multiple stakeholders and in transdisciplinary research. Among the different forms of public engagement, citizen science (CS) has significant potential to support science-society interactions with mutual benefits. While many studies have focused on the experience and motivations of CS volunteers, scarce literature investigating the perspectives of researchers is available. The main purpose of this paper is to better understand scientists' attitudes about CS in the context of its potential to support outcomes that extent beyond more traditional ones focused on promoting science knowledge and interest. We surveyed the scientific community belonging to the International Long-Term Ecological Research (ILTER) network because ILTER is of interest to multiple stakeholders and occurs over long time scales. Via an online questionnaire, we asked ILTER scientists about their willingness to participate in different types of public engagement, their reasons for participating in CS, the associated barriers, and any impacts of these efforts on them. Our findings show that many ILTER scientists are open to participating in CS for a wide range of reasons; the dominant ones involve deeper public engagement and collaboration. The barriers of greatest concern of these respondents were the lack of institutional support to start and run a CS project and the difficulty of establishing long-term stable relationships with the public. They reported impacts of CS activities on how they pursue their work and acknowledged the benefit of opportunities to learn from the public. The emerging picture from this research is of a community willing and actively involved in many CS projects for both traditional reasons, such as data gathering and public education, and expanded reasons that activate a real two-way cooperation with the public. In the ILTER community, CS may thus become an opportunity to promote and develop partnerships with citizens, helping to advance the science-society interface and to rediscover and enhance the human and social dimension of the scientific work.

What is conservation paleobiology? Tracking 20 years of research and development

Dillon, Erin M.; Pier, Jaleigh Q.; Smith, Jansen A.; Raja, Nussaïbah B.; Dimitrijevi?, Danijela; Austin, Elizabeth L.; Cybulski, Jonathan D.; De Entrambasaguas, Julia; Durham, Stephen R.; Grether, Carolin M.; Haldar, Himadri Sekhar; Kocáková, Kristína; Lin, Chien Hsiang; Mazzini, Ilaria; Mychajliw, Alexis M.; Ollendorf, Amy L.; Pimiento, Catalina; Regalado Fernández, Omar R.; Smith, Isaiah E.; Dietl, Gregory P.

Conservation paleobiology has coalesced over the last two decades since its formal coining, united by the goal of applying geohistorical records to inform the conservation, management, and restoration of biodiversity and ecosystem services. Yet, the field is still attempting to form an identity distinct from its academic roots. Here, we ask a deceptively simple question: What is conservation paleobiology? To track its development as a field, we synthesize complementary perspectives from a survey of the scientific community that is familiar with conservation paleobiology and a systematic literature review of publications that use the term. We present an overview of conservation paleobiology's research scope and compare survey participants' perceptions of what it is and what it should be as a field. We find that conservation paleobiologists use a variety of geohistorical data in their work, although research is typified by near-time records of marine molluscs and terrestrial mammals collected over local to regional spatial scales. Our results also confirm the field's broad disciplinary basis: survey participants indicated that conservation paleobiology can incorporate information from a wide range of disciplines spanning conservation biology, ecology, historical ecology, paleontology, and archaeology. Finally, we show that conservation paleobiologists have yet to reach a consensus on how applied the field should be in practice. The survey revealed that many participants thought the field should be more applied but that most do not currently engage with conservation practice. Reflecting on how conservation paleobiology has developed over the last two decades, we discuss opportunities to promote community cohesion, strengthen collaborations within conservation science, and align training priorities with the field's identity as it continues to crystallize.

"Natural resources and coastal productive settlements in southern Puglia".

Patrizia Tartara

The systematic topographic research conducted for many years by the CNR and by the Ancient Topography Laboratory of the University of Salento in Puglia, in particular in the Salento peninsula and in the Tavoliere, have led to an exponential increase in the knowledge of archaeological evidence and consequently to the analysis and reconstruction of the evolution of human settlement in the territory in the different phases, from prehistoric times to the medieval phase. The data collected with a detailed survey and the use of various traditional and advanced technologies are collected in the "Territorial Information System of Cultural Heritage of the Italian territory" of the CNR. The systematic analysis also involved the coastal strip, both Adriatic and Ionian; both have an uninterrupted sequence of settlements, often with a continuity of life from the Ancient Bronze Age to the Modern Age. During the second millennium BC there is a continuous chain of large settlements often provided with fortifications, often located on promontories or reliefs in relation to deep inlets or forms of landing of different types. The few cases of regular excavations have revealed large quantities of imported materials, which attest, already in the ancient phases of the Bronze Age, continuous contacts with the Aegean world. The topographical positions of these dominant sites after nearly three millennia will be replicated by the coastal watchtower and defense system. A particular type of settlements of limited size and in the past not identified, deserves particular attention: in different points of the coast there are very consistent heaps of whole and fragmented shells belonging to different species, but mainly of murex (Phyllonotus trunculus); heaps, even extensive, of shells are associated with large quantities of ancient ceramic fragments: table and fire pottery, especially amphorae and various materials related to fishing (net weights, nails, bronze sheets, etc.).Evidently they are very simple preparations for the collection of molluscs and the subsequent processing for the production of purple, essentially allocations of purpurarii, documented by ancient sources in this sector of the territory. The obtained product, extracting the dye base from a mollusk gland, was then sent to the dry cleaners (bafii); that in classical and Roman times they were mainly found in Taranto; still at the end of the third century AD. C. Taranto was the production center of the imperial property purple (NOTITIA DIGNITATUM, Occ. XI, 1: Procurator bafii Tarentini, Calabriae). The war events of the following centuries caused the transfer of the bafii to Otranto but the production somehow continued until the Middle Ages; Taranto was certainly the site of settlements of purpurarii along the coast, then obliterated by modern urbanization; in the historical cartography an heaps of shells located on the coast of the Mar Piccolo is documented, however, still clearly visible at the end of the last century, known by the local toponym of "Monte dei Coccioli", attestation of a collection site, probably connected to the purple that various ancient sources place in this sector of the city. from the mollusk. The chronological span of the settlements recorded so far is very broad, but varies Referee List (DOI 10.36253/fup_referee_list) FUP Best Practice in Scholarly Publishing (DOI 10.36253/fup_best_practice) Patrizia Tartara, Natural resources and coastal productive settlements in southern Puglia, pp. 875-886 © 2022 Author(s), CC BY-NC-SA 4.0, 10.36253/979-12-215-0030-1.83 876 greatly as a result of the situation of the various sites; at last , it is possible to rely only on what is visible on the surface; mainly the materials show continuity of use of the sites from the late archaic and classical age to the late imperial age, but in at least two of the surveyed settlements the presence of Bronze Age materials is documented, always associated with murex shells and other ancient ceramic fragments of different chronology. In some cases, remains of masonry tanks with cocciopesto hydraulic coating are preserved, evidently functional to the processing of the product. The settlements detected in all cases develop in situations of small pools, always associated with the presence of fresh water, small streams, springs, including underwater springs, small lagoons; evidently the contribution of fresh water in the sea creates favorable conditions for the proliferation of molluscs and therefore favors the quantity and quality of the kept. The settlements identified to date are all on the Ionian coast, where there are many springs and wetlands. The only presence of mounds of murexes in the Adriatic is for now that of Coppa Nevigata (FG), however, dated to different phases of the Bronze Age. The study - and the protection - of the identified sites and the increase in research is important because they affect the coastal strip which is particularly at risk for seaside tourism and uncontrolled urbanization.

BRINGING STUDENTS CLOSER TO THE ISSUES OF INDOOR ENVIRONMENTAL QUALITY AND TECHNOLOGY USING NEMOS DEVICE: AN EXPERIENCE IN ALBANIA

Salamone Francesco, Lorenzo Belussi, Ludovico Danza, Etleva Dobjani, Matteo Ghellere, Italo Meroni, Arben Shtylla, Saimir Shtylla

The article presents the outcomes of a monitoring campaign and a survey performedin a school building in Tirana. Included in the Bilateral Agreement between the National ResearchCouncil of Italy and the Ministry of Education and Sport of the Republic of Albania, the research isbased on environmental analysis, collection of data from monitoring of environmental variables andstudents' feedback. The monitoring of Indoor Environmental Quality (IEQ) was carried out witha nearable Environmental Monitoring System (nEMoS) for IEQ purposes, designed and developed byITC-CNR based on the Do-It-Yourself (DIY) philosophy. The proliferation of the maker movementphilosophy has promoted the diffusion of DIY-based technologies. The spread of this movement isobserved outside schools but there is a growing interest among educators to introduce this philosophy inthe students' education, approaching to STEAM (Science Technology Engineering Arts Mathematics)in a different and more stimulating way. The application of two nEMoS devices in two classrooms (indifferent locations) aroused the curiosity of students, bringing them closer to the world of technologywith a practical example. It also increased their awareness about the overall IEQ conditions in theclassrooms where they spend a considerable part of their lives.

La Grotta dell'Arsenale a Capri: analisi del contesto, delle murature e degli apparati decorativi

Giorgi C.

The Grotto of the Arsenal is considered an operosa antra, meaning a natural cavity that has been modified, adapted and constructed with the aim of allowing different functionalities, such as leisure, stay or banqueting. The grotto, although not directly connected to the Capri island's villas, is located in a strategic position on the coastline that makes it particularly relevant to those passing by via the sea. The grotto has never been studied in depth neither described by either modern or ancient sources, although in the past decades it has been inspected and studied by several scholars. Recent archeological inspections allowed for hypotheses on the original aspect and destination of use of the site, and revealed some relevant geometrical characteristics unveiled by the previous analyses.The internal shape of the grotto is bordered by a circular masonry structure that symbolically unites the compartments, that are radially arranged around it. In particular one of these compartments, placed at the end, represents the focal point of the visitor, in axis with the access ramp. The grotto can be considered one of those natural spaces that the Romans were able to exploit as a place to get rest while enjoying the panoramic view of the sea.

In-Home Older Adults' Activity Pattern Monitoring Using Depth Sensors: A Review

Momin, Md Sarfaraz; Sufian, Abu; Barman, Debaditya; Dutta, Paramartha; Dong, Mianxiong; Leo, Marco

The global population is aging due to many factors, including longer life expectancy through better healthcare, changing diet, physical activity, etc. We are also witnessing various frequent epidemics as well as pandemics. The existing healthcare system has failed to deliver the care and support needed to our older adults (seniors) during these frequent outbreaks. Sophisticated sensor-based in-home care systems may offer an effective solution to this global crisis. The monitoring system is the key component of any in-home care system. The evidence indicates that they are more useful when implemented in a non-intrusive manner through different visual and audio sensors. Artificial Intelligence (AI) and Computer Vision (CV) techniques may be ideal for this purpose. Since the RGB imagery-based CV technique may compromise privacy, people often hesitate to utilize in-home care systems which use this technology. Depth, thermal, and audio-based CV techniques could be meaningful substitutes here. Due to the need to monitor larger areas, this review article presents a systematic discussion on the state-of-the-art using depth sensors as primary data-capturing techniques. We mainly focused on fall detection and other health-related physical patterns. As gait parameters may help to detect these activities, we also considered depth sensor-based gait parameters separately. The article provides discussions on the topic in relation to the terminology, reviews, a survey of popular datasets, and future scopes.

Objective To survey parents and carers of children with a congenital anomaly across Europe about their experiences of healthcare services and support during the COVID-19 pandemic. Design Cross-sectional study. Setting Online survey in 10 European countries, open from 8 March 2021 to 14 July 2021. Population 1070 parents and carers of children aged 0-10 years with a cleft lip, spina bifida, congenital heart defect (CHD) requiring surgery and/or Down syndrome. Main outcome measures Parental views about: the provision of care for their child (cancellation/postponement of appointments, virtual appointments, access to medication), the impact of disruptions to healthcare on their child's health and well-being, and satisfaction with support from medical sources, organisations and close relationships. Results Disruptions to healthcare appointments were significantly higher (p<0.001) in the UK and Poland, with approximately two-thirds of participants reporting 'cancelled or postponed' tests (67/101; 256/389) and procedures compared with approximately 20% in Germany (13/74) and Belgium/Netherlands (11/55). A third of participants in the UK and Poland reported 'cancelled or postponed' surgeries (22/72; 98/266) compared with only 8% in Germany (5/64). In Poland, 43% (136/314) of parents reported that changes to their child's ongoing treatment had moderately to severely affected their child's health, significantly higher than all other countries (p<0.001). Satisfaction ratings for support from general practitioners were lowest in the UK and Poland, and lowest in Poland and Italy for specialist doctors and nurses. Conclusion A large proportion of participants reported disruptions to healthcare during the pandemic, which for some had a significant impact on their child's health. Regional differences in disruptions raise questions about the competence of certain healthcare systems to meet the needs of this vulnerable group of patients and indicate improvements should be strived for in some regions.

The Working Group on Nephrops Surveys (WGNEPS) is the international coordination group for Nephrops underwater television and trawl surveys within ICES. This report summarizes the na- tional contributions on the results of the surveys conducted in 2021 together with time series covering all survey years, problems encountered, data quality checks and technological improve- ments as well as the planning for survey activities for 2022. In total, 19 surveys covering 25 functional units (FU's) in the ICES area and 1 geographical sub- area (GSA) in the Adriatic Sea were discussed and further improvements in respect to survey design and data analysis standardization and the use of recent technologies were reviewed. Due to the COVID-19 pandemic there were minimal disruptions to survey operations where one sur- vey was not completed (GSA 17). A trial trawl Nephrops survey offshore Portugal was carried out on the new research vessel. Preliminary work on how to measure burrow system size was presented using high definition (HD) and standard definition (SD) image data. Further work on comparison of SD and HD indi- cates the change to HD system mounted with a different camera angle was not significantly dif- ferent for two survey areas (FU 16 and FU 20-21). Automatic burrow detection based on deep learning methods continues to show promising re- sults where datasets from multiple institutes were used. The working group members have agreed to draft a roadmap for automatic system technology requirements with links to the Work- ing Group on Machine Learning in Marine Science (WGMLEARN) and current researchers. The working group is progressing plans for an international Nephrops Underwater television (UWTW) database to be established at the ICES Data Centre. End-users of UWTV datasets for epifauna reporting presented their work and showed the potential for adding value to the survey data, where many of the institutes are involved in providing data for similar research purposes.

Are We Still a Sexist Society? Primary Socialisation and Adherence to Gender Roles in Childhood

Cerbara L., Ciancimino G., Tintori A.

Background: The internalisation of gender stereotypes has long-term impacts on the aspirations, opportunities and psychosocial well-being of people. The main objective of this study is to measure the adherence to gender roles among children, analysing the link between their roles' internalisation, the family context and the socioeconomic environment. Method: During the Spring 2021, a survey was carried in Rome on children aged 8-11 through a structured questionnaire. The explanatory dimensions of the analysed topics were identified and a survey questionnaire with an ad hoc administration method were developed. Results: The results show a widespread internalisation of traditional gender roles among the respondents and differences by sex were found, since their acceptance is higher among boys for male roles and among girls for female roles. As the age increases, the adherence to male roles decreases for both boys and girls, while high levels of prosociality resulted in a lower adherence to female roles among boys. No significant relations were found with family and environmental variables. Conclusions: These findings show how the internalisation of gender stereotypes is already traceable at this age, and due to a different path of primary socialisation, boys and girls develop their gender identity consistent with social expectations. The lack of significant relations with environmental variables could be related to the age of the respondents, as the process of primary socialisation imbued with gender stereotypes still does not overlap secondary socialisation. These trends should be monitored during late childhood since at this age children are cognitively plastic, but also vulnerable and influenceable by surrounding stimuli. This research approach, especially if extended to a wider geographical scale, can provide important knowledge to support the relational well-being of children and equal opportunities of society as a whole
