    BTS measurements and nivologic profiles were recorded in the three sites particularly significant from the geomorphological point of view (area without permafrost, possible and certain permafrost areas) at the same day. Between permafrost areas and areas without permafrost, the crystalline characteristics of the snow in the basal layers are different. In the first case, snow is characterized by equithermic metamorphism (destructive), creating a feedback process which delays the snow melting in permafrost occurrence areas, improving the aggradation and conservation of permafrost

    Analisi iconologica di due tele inedite del pittore cremonese G. B. Natali. Delle due nature morte sono studiati anche gli aspetti organologici e la decifrazione di uno dei fogli di musica permette di riportare alla luce una sconosciuta redazione della villanella "S'io sospiro e s'io piango" di Johann Hieronymus Kapsberger (ca. 1580-1651)

    Permafrost-based geomorphology of the Mt. Foscagno - Mt. Forcellina ridge (Adda–Inn River basins, Central Italian Alps)

    The permafrost-based geomorphological map of the Mt. Foscagno–Mt Forcellina ridge (Central Italian Alps) shows the distribution of permafrost probability (high, medium, low probability, and probable absence) obtained by the application of PERMACLIM (Guglielmin et al., 2003), a GIS-based model integrating Digital Elevation Model (DEM) topographic data and the Climatic DataBase (CDB) available from Automatic Weather Stations (AWS). In addition, the map provides information on the outcropping bedrock, the genesis and grain size of near-surface deposits, and geomorphological features with particular reference to periglacial and glacial landforms. Moreover, the map represents locations and values of ground measurements, Bottom Temperature of winter Snow cover (BTS) and Vertical Electric Soundings (VES), and the Mean Annual Air Temperature (MAAT; Guglielmin et al., 2003)

    Going Beyond Counting First Authors in Author Co-citation Analysis

    The present study examines one of the fundamental aspects of author co-citation analysis (ACA) - the way co-citation counts are defined. Co-citation counting provides the data on which all subsequent statistical analyses and mappings are based, and we compare ACA results based on two different types of co-citation counting - the traditional type that only counts the first one among a cited work's authors on the one hand and a non-traditional type that takes into account the first 5 authors of a cited work on the other hand. Results indicate that the picture produced through this non-traditional author co-citation counting contains more coherent author groups and is therefore considerably clearer. However, this picture represents fewer specialties in the research field being studied than that produced through the traditional first-author co-citation counting when the same number of top-ranked authors is selected and analyzed. Reasons for these effects are discussed
