    ENGLISH: This essay looks at La coscienza di Zeno from the standpoint of turn-of-the-century experimental psychology, focusing on the possible influence of authors such as Theodule Ribot and Pierre Janet and the adoption of their ideas into the tissue of the novel. ITALIANO: Il saggio mira a una rilettura de La coscienza di Zeno a confronto con le teorie della psicologia sperimentale fra Otto e Novecento.

    Stability of banded vegetation patterns under seasonal rainfall and limited soil moisture storage capacity

    No full text
    The delicate equilibrium of soil moisture and biomass may become unstable under water scarcity conditions causing banded vegetation patterns to form on hillsides of semi-arid catchments. Soil related processes that induce instability (namely: soil moisture advection and diffusion), have been evaluated numerically for different rainfall regimes. This study addresses the combined influence of some relevant soil characteristics, and the effect of seasonal precipitation on vegetation patterns, advancing the comprehension of those mechanisms that cause shifts toward banded vegetation patterns or bare states
