Sono stati iniziati i campionamenti pedologici nella zona dei Colli Euganei

Sono stati iniziati i campionamenti pedologici nella zona dei Colli Euganei. Il Dr. Cristiano Nicosia e alcuni studenti dell'Università di Padova hanno fatto i carotaggi di terra negli orti e vigneti del Monastero di Praglia. L'obiettivo è quello di ricostruire la sequenza paleoambientale e l'uso del suolo di questi paesaggi creati con la fondazione del monastero nel secolo XI.​

Soil samples were started in the area of the Colli Euganei (Italy)

Soil samples were started in the area of the Colli Euganei. Dr. Cristiano Nicosia and students from the University of Padua made coring of land in the orchards and vineyards of the Monastery of Praglia. The goal is to reconstruct the paleoenvironmental sequence and land use of the landscape created with the founding of the monastery in the eleventh century

IHOPE includes the MEMOLA project in their network

IHOPE includes to MEMOLA project in their network.

IHOPE "Integrated History and Future of People on Earth" is a global network of researchers and research projects using integrative frameworks to combine study human and Earth system history on behalf of our species’ future. IHOPE’s long-term, human-scale perspective unites Earth system science with the social sciences, the humanities, and communities of practice. The IHOPE project office is hosted by Uppsala University in Sweden.

History

At the International Geosphere-Biosphere Programme’s  (IGBP) 2003 conference in Banff, Robert Costanza and colleagues addressed the meeting’s challenge: how can the Earth System and human societies be viewed as a single system?  IHOPE thus began as an initiative of IGBP’s core project The Analysis, Integration and Modeling of the Earth System (AIMES), and is now a part of both IGBP and the International Human Dimensions Programme (IHDP).  Soon IGBP, IHDP and other global programs will be further amalgamated within the new Future Earth framework.  IHOPE is unique in its focus on how the human past can offer important knowledge to build an equitable and flexible future for our species.

Vision

IHOPE asserts that humans are a part of the Earth system and are now agents in planetary change. To offer viable paths for humanity’s future, our models, scenarios, and other visions must incorporate the full range of human experience and creativity.

Objectives

IHOPE employs frameworks that integrate perspectives, theories, tools, and knowledge from the social and biophysical sciences, the humanities, and communities of practice.

IHOPE demonstrates the relevance of the past to the future of landscapes and regions.

IHOPE examines variables in linked human-environment systems which induce societal resilience or vulnerability.

IHOPE recognizes that integrated research requires equity, trust, and respect among communities of research and practice.

IHOPE invites worldwide collaborations and exchanges.

A Three-Fold Approach to Research Design

Historical ecology integrates the history of the Earth´s biophysical system with the history of human life in all its aspects. This holistic perspective draws from the biophysical sciences, social sciences, and the humanities, and necessitates the use of diverse data such as documents, archaeology, environmental information, and local knowledge.  Landscapes and regions, studied at different scales across time and space, offer a human-scale focus for the study of change.

Environmental humanities draw humanities disciplines into conversation with each other and with the natural and social sciences.  Environmental humanists address the impact of humans and human cognition on physical reality and their consequences, paying particular attention to  how our perspectives on nature — attitudes, beliefs and values — are shaped by our myths, legends, ideology, aesthetics, politics, religion, and science.

Future Studies incorporate complex adaptive systems (CAS), an aggregate of several strands of investigation now widely applied in the biological, physical, and social sciences.  CAS concepts (such as nonlinearity, initial conditions, emergence, basins of attraction, and path dependence), applied to the dynamics of human societies, can offer new insights for scenario and modeling projects.  Looking beyond periods of relative stability to periods of transition can offer valuable lessons for the future.
