An approach based on tectonic and morphometric analyses allowed a complete reconstruction of the Tammaro Basin evolution: firstly extremely influenced by natural factor as lithology and tectonics, then strongly conditioned by anthropic activities, these last responsible for slope instability and modification of erosional processes. The effect of a large dam at Campolattaro is also discussed in terms of increment of incision and linear erosional processes.Reconstruction of the geomorphological evolutionary trend of the Tammaro River represents a key subject in order to correctly exploit a so endangered fluvial environment.

Abstract
An approach based on tectonic and morphometric analyses allowed a complete reconstruction of the Tammaro Basin evolution: firstly extremely influenced by natural factor as lithology and tectonics, then strongly conditioned by anthropic activities, these last responsible for slope instability and modification of erosional processes. The effect of a large dam at Campolattaro is also discussed in terms of increment of incision and linear erosional processes.Reconstruction of the geomorphological evolutionary trend of the Tammaro River represents a key subject in order to correctly exploit a so endangered fluvial environment.File in questo prodotto:
