The three reforested areas had been previously used for agricultural purposes. Samples were collected monthly by pitfall traps for a period of 1 year (March 2009–February 2010). Structural parameters and the arthropod assemblage compositions of the four studied areas were compared. The effects of the different forest types and the inﬂuence of environmental variables on the activity density of each species were analyzed, with particular emphasis to forest species. Contrary to centipedes and ground beetles, woodlice showed lower values of richness, diversity and equitability in reforestations than in the natural forest. According to Canonical Correspondence Analysis, forest species of woodlice and centipedes resulted mainly associated with forests characterized by a high structural heterogeneity (natural forest and reforestation with Q. pubescens). In these two forests the activity density of centipede forest species is mainly inﬂuenced by the coverage of both shrub and leaf litter layer, and woodlice forest species only by the coverage of the latter. The ground beetle forest species were mainly associated with forests characterized by low structural heterogeneity and an almost total closure of the canopy throughout the year (reforestation with Q. ilex). However, some ground beetle forest species are present also in the natural forest. Our results suggest that reforestations with different native broadleaf species belonging to the local ‘‘potential’’ vegetation can contribute to the conservation of the diversity of forest arthropod assemblages in the extremely fragmented agricultural landscape of the middle Tyrrhenian area</style></abstract><notes><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">The following values have no corresponding Zotero field:&lt;br/&gt;publisher: Elsevier B.V.</style></notes></record><record><source-app name="Biblio" version="7.x">Drupal-Biblio</source-app><ref-type>17</ref-type><contributors><authors><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Drescher-Schneider, Ruth</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">de Beaulieu, Jacques-Louis</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Magny, Michel</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Walter-Simonnet, Anne-Véronique</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Bossuet, Gilles</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Millet, Laurent</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Brugiapaglia, Elisabetta</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Drescher, Anton</style></author></authors></contributors><titles><title><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Vegetation history, climate and human impact over the last 15,000 years at Lago dell’Accesa (Tuscany, Central Italy)</style></title><secondary-title><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Vegetation History and Archaeobotany</style></secondary-title></titles><keywords><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Abies</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Central Italy</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Holocene</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">human impact</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Late Pleistocene</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Mediterranean vegetation</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Pollen analysis</style></keyword></keywords><dates><year><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">2007</style></year></dates><volume><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">16</style></volume><pages><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">279-299</style></pages><language><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">eng</style></language><abstract><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Interdisciplinary studies of the sediments of Lago dell’Accesa started in 2001. We present here results from the palynological study. The pollen diagram provides a record of vegetation and climatic change spanning over 15,000 years. The oldest pollen spectra show a late-glacial steppe vegetation typical of central and southern Italy during this period. The Late-glacial Interstadial, interrupted by two cooling events, is dominated by open deciduous oak forests. The Younger Dryas is represented by 150 cm of sediment and shows the presence of steppic vegetation. The Holocene vegetation is characterised by alternating dominance of deciduous oaks and Quercus ilex. The three zones characterised by Q. ilex are accompanied by peat layers marking lake-level lowering at ca. 8600–7900, 4600–4300 and 3700–2800 cal b.p. Between approximately 9000 and 6000 cal b.p. extensive Abies-forests existed on the Colline Metallifere located 15–20 km to the north and northeast of the lake. Local ﬁr populations may also have existed by the lake. Human impact starts at approximately 8000 cal b.p. during the Neolithic period, and increases at ca. 4300 cal b.p. Castanea and Juglans pollen is recorded from ca. 2800 cal b.p. The impact of the Etruscan settlement near the lakeshore is shown in the increasing values of arable crops, species of secondary forest canopy (Ericaceae, Pinus, Pistacia, Myrtus) and anthropogenic indicators (Chenopodiaceae, Plantago lanceolata, Rumex etc).</style></abstract></record><record><source-app name="Biblio" version="7.x">Drupal-Biblio</source-app><ref-type>17</ref-type><contributors><authors><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Magri, Donatella</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Sadori, Laura</style></author></authors></contributors><titles><title><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Late Pleistocene and Holocene pollen stratigraphy at Lago di Vico, central Italy</style></title><secondary-title><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Vegetation history and archaeobotany</style></secondary-title></titles><keywords><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Central Italy</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Crater lake</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Holocene</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Late Pleistocene</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Pollen analysis</style></keyword></keywords><dates><year><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">1999</style></year></dates><pages><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">247-260</style></pages><language><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">eng</style></language><abstract><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">A new pollen record from Lago di Vico (core V1) provides fundamental new information towards re- construction of flora and vegetation history in central Italy during the last 90 000 years. The chronological framework is secured by seventeen AMS 14C dates, one 4°Ar/39Ar date and tephra analyses. At the base of the pol- len record, i.e. shortly after the 4°Ar/39Ar date 87 000+ 7000 B.P., three phases with significant expansion of trees are recorded in close succession. These forest phases, which stratigraphically correspond to St Ger- main II (and Ognon?) and precede pleniglacial steppe vegetation, are designated by the local names Etruria I, Etruria II and Etruria III. During the pleniglacial, a number of fluctuations of angiosperm mesophilous trees suggest the presence of tree refugia in the area. The low- est pollen concentration values are recorded at ca. 22 000 B.P. which corresponds with other pollen records from the region. The late-glacial is characterized by an expansion in the arboreal pollen curves that is less pro- nounced, however, than in other pollen profiles from Italy. The Holocene part of the profile is consistently dominated by deciduous oak pollen. No major changes in arboreal pollen composition are recorded but several marked and sudden declines of the tree pollen concentra- tion suggest that the forest cover underwent dramatic changes. Clear evidence for human impact is recorded only when cultivated crops became important which dates to ca. 26304-95 B.P.</style></abstract></record><record><source-app name="Biblio" version="7.x">Drupal-Biblio</source-app><ref-type>17</ref-type><contributors><authors><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Monaci, F</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Bargagli, R</style></author></authors></contributors><titles><title><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Barium and other trace metals as indicators of vehicle emissions</style></title><secondary-title><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">WATER AIR AND SOIL POLLUTION</style></secondary-title></titles><keywords><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">accumulative bioindication</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Central Italy</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Quercus ilex leaves</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Siena</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">trace element pollution</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Urban environment</style></keyword></keywords><dates><year><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">1997</style></year></dates><publisher><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">KLUWER ACADEMIC PUBL</style></publisher><pub-location><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">SPUIBOULEVARD 50, PO BOX 17, 3300 AA DORDRECHT, NETHERLANDS</style></pub-location><volume><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">100</style></volume><pages><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">89-98</style></pages><language><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">eng</style></language><abstract><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">In the Siena urban environment, unwashed Q when leaves had a significantly higher Al, Ba, Cr, Fe, Mn, Na, Ni, Pb, Ti, and V content than samples from a neighbouring Mediterranean maquis. Significant relationships between element pairs indicated both the presence of metals emitted by motor vehicles and lithophilic elements, presumably from soil particles, resuspended by wind or turbulence generated by traffic. In order to minimize the effects of soil dust contamination and to seek clues to the metal sources, the estimated substrate contribution was subtracted from the raw concentrations of elements in Q. ilex leaves. Normalization for local soil composition confirmed that automotive emissions are the principal source of pollution in Siena. On the basis of a very significant relationship between normalized concentrations of Pb and Ba and the presence of the latter element in diesel and unleaded gasoline, Ba was recognized as a valuable tracer for vehicle emissions, in the place of Pb.</style></abstract></record></records></xml>
