    Rischi ambientali e comunicazione (2019)
    Franco Angeli
    Details
    Publication Date: 2019-02-25
    Description: Il processo di accentuazione – proprio della nostra epoca – della “crisi discontinuità” nella “trama delle relazioni complesse che i sistemi storici hanno instaurato con i sistemi naturali” (Beato, 1993) ha determinato rilevanti modificazioni nella natura stessa dei rischi che, combinandosi con i processi di differenziazione sociale e individuale degli stessi rischi, hanno profondamente modificato il rapporto tra individui, sistemi sociali e ambiente, ridefinendo radicalmente le condizioni sociali attraverso cui i rischi sono percepiti, riconosciuti, compresi e gestiti. In un simile contesto, la “visione tradizionale” (e strumentale) della comunicazione del rischio rischia di opacizzare anziché chiarire la posta in gioco delle sfide ambientali e dei processi di costruzione discorsiva del rischio, che riguardano, in ultima analisi, il confronto e il conflitto tra particolari visioni del futuro. L’articolazione di questi conflitti appare sempre più irriducibile ai classici modelli di mediazione della società di massa e al ruolo egemone dei tradizionali media broadcast: in un’arena sempre più ampia e meno circoscrivibile, gli attori e le forme che assumono questi processi di mediazione si moltiplicano, richiedendo una visione più ampia della comunicazione del rischio e dei conflitti politici e culturali ad essa sottesi.

    Dimension stone industry should meet the fundamental values of geoethics (2019)
    Elsevier
    Details
    Publication Date: 2019-08-19
    Description: The term “Dimension Stone” refers to natural stone that has been quarried, selected and processed into specific sizes or shapes, with or without one or more mechanically dressed or finished surfaces, for use as building facing, curbing, paving stone, monuments and memorials, and various industrial products. The dimension stone industry is currently increasing the volume of its activities: based on a prudent medium-term development forecast, the net product could reach one hundred million tons in 2020. For this reason, geoscientists and stakeholders need to reason about methods and technologies in the dimension stone sector and how to operate responsibly and sustainably in accordance with the following geoethical values. After a definition of geoethics and an overview of the dimension stone industry, the paper focuses on fundamental values of geoethics as stated in the Cape Town Statement on Geoethics. More precisely, geoethical values have been referred to real and practical cases of dimension stone subsectors, by presenting some examples recorded in Sardinia (Italy). This region has a long history of production of ornamental stones. Finally, tips and suggestions on how geoscientists (in particular geologists and mining engineers) can help the dimension stone sector in a geoethical way, i.e., responsibly and sustainably are herein offered.

    Ethical Behavior in Relation to the Scholarly Community (2018)
    Elsevier
    Details
    Publication Date: 2018-03-02
    Description: The action of using someone else’s production, ideas, or research without acknowledging the source and then claiming credit for them is known as plagiarism. Plagiarism is in principle a moral offense; it is not always an illegal action but certainly is an ethical complex case. Copying without permission or stealing someone else’s work violates the standard codes of scholarly conduct and ethical behavior in professional scientific research. Science may be somewhat more prone to plagiarism in that scholars exchange ideas and proposals more frequently than artists, for example. Workshops, scientific meetings, and round tables are places where primitive and preliminary researches are presented and discussed before their official presentation. This chapter discusses plagiarism and self plagiarism and tries to point out the role of the scientific community toward this kind of scientific misconduct.

    Terremoti: tra percezione e realtà (2017)
    Franco Angeli
    Details
    Publication Date: 2017-04-04
    Description: Today, in Italy, studies on perception of seismic risk are quite rare and even more rarely results are known and considered to support risk analysis and improve communication. In our opinion this problem mainly arises from two reasons: an inadequate integration between social science and science that ‘traditionally’ are involved in earthquake studies such as physics, seismology, geology and engineering; an intrinsic difficulty of social science to relate with other disciplines, adopting shared language, methods and techniques. In our paper, the main approaches used in risk perception studies are discussed. Furthermore, we describe the method used to compare the data on the perception of seismic risk in Italy (over 8,500 questionnaires collected) with the factors that determine the risk in seismology: the level of seismic hazard (hazard); the number of people and the amount of assets that are exposed to the risk of earthquake (exposure); as these people and these assets are vulnerable to seismic risk (vulnerability). Our results highlight that in seismic zone 1 (the most dangerous area, where is high the probability that a major earthquake occurs) 8 out of 10 Italians do not have adequate risk perception. These results are consistent with other studies conducted immediately after the L’Aquila earthquake of April 6, 2009 (Marincioni et al. Earthquake Spectra, Volume 28, No. 1, pages 159-183, February 2012). For these reasons we believe that, in Italy, carry out information and education initiatives it is an urgent need, in order to finally give birth to a population more informed and aware of the risks of the territory in which it lives.

    Uncovering deformation processes from surface displacements (2016)
    Elsevier
    Details
    Publication Date: 2021-05-12
    Description: Today, satellite remote sensing has reached a key role in Earth Sciences. In particular, Synthetic ApertureRadar (SAR) sensors and SAR Interferometry (InSAR) techniques are widely used for the study of dynamicprocesses occurring inside our living planet. Over the past 3 decades, InSAR has been applied for mappingtopography and deformation at the Earth’s surface. These maps are widely used in tectonics, seismology,geomorphology, and volcanology, in order to investigate the kinematics and dynamics of crustal faulting,the causes of postseismic and interseismic displacements, the dynamics of gravity driven slope failures,and the deformation associated with subsurface movement of water, hydrocarbons or magmatic fluids.

    Publication Date: 2020-02-24
    Description: The time for a first book on Geoethics has come. The faster, greedier pace of society and globalization demands it. The comfortable life of scholars in the ivory tower is coming to a rude awakening. People demand understandable information on geohazards, judges condemn scientist and engineers for lack of communication, indigenous people rise in anger accusing experts of misleading them, attempts to avoid transparency in developments still exist, the helplessness of technology to deal with nuclear waste becomes more evident everyday and nature exposes shortcuts in constructing critical facilities with her own awesome force.....

    The Meaning of Geoethics (2015)
    Elsevier
    Details
    Publication Date: 2017-04-04
    Description: This chapter outlines a framework of the issues addressed by geoethics. Starting from an etymological analysis of the word “geoethics,” we identify the cultural basis on which to expand the debate on geoethics, while also proposing for consideration by the scientific community some questions that may guide the development of future research and practice in geosciences. We attempt to define some fundamental points that, in our opinion, will strengthen geoethics and help its development. The goal of geoethics is to suggest practical solutions and provide useful techniques, and also to promote cultural renewal in how humans perceive and relate to the planet, through greater attention to the protection of life and the richness of the Earth, in all its forms. As each science does, geoethics should also be able to present an image of the world, pointing out the manner in which it can be understood, investigated, designed, and experienced.

    Seismic damage to pipelines in the framework of Na-Tech risk assessment (2015)
    Elsevier
    Details
    Publication Date: 2020-05-29
    Description: The structural integrity of pipelines undergone seismic waves is crucial for industrial installation and for the distributed transportation networks of gaseous and liquid fluids. However, it is nowadays proved that the definition of seismic vulnerability based on purely, structural-derived limit states or on return-to-service or even on the purely economic repair rate indications, is not sufficient for the holistic analysis of risks. On the other hand, detailed numerical studies based on full analyses (including fluid/soil/structure interaction) are too expensive for the aims of risk assessment and simplified methodologies are still needed.In this paper, a large database of earthquake-induced damage for steel and non-steel pipelines is presented. Each case was analyzed and collected from post-earthquake reconnaissance, seismic engineering reports and technical papers. The database may be adopted for the definition of specific vulnerability function (fragility curves), which are commonly implemented in multi-hazard analyses, and more in general for the assessment of Na-Tech risks (Natural events triggering Technological disasters). Seismic damage to pipelines in the framework of Na-Tech risk assessment.

    “When Will Vesuvius Erupt?” Why Research Institutes Must Maintain a Dialogue with the Public in a High-Risk Volcanic Area: The Vesuvius Museum Observatory (2015)
    Elsevier
    Details
    Publication Date: 2017-04-04
    Description: In areas of active but dormant volcanoes, people need to know some basic facts: What volcano is going to erupt? What kind of eruption will occur? When and where will it take place? Why will it occur? And, also, what should citizens do to save themselves and their families? Communications travel in a complex network of connections among individuals and groups. If the main stakeholders involved do not work together to deliver coherent and complementary messages, the transmitted message may be contradictory, or inconsistent. Misunderstanding and confusion will take over, increasing rather than mitigating the risk. For this reason, citizens need to turn to scientists and research institutes working in hazardous areas as key interlocutors for matters concerning basic information concerning volcanic hazard. At the same time, scientists in charge of volcano surveillance, together with emergency managers, media, and public officials, have the duty to answer citizens’ need for information, exploring multiple channels and languages to communicate effectively. The present chapter analyzes some systematic studies and multidisciplinary research projects on this topic that have been carried out in recent years. It also points out an analysis of the public use of the Vesuvius Observatory museum, which is a reference information point for people living in the Naples (Italy) area and exposed to volcano hazard.
