Provide the basis to frame the contribution that environmental geology has in territorial planning and planning, in relation to interventions of anthropic transformation, protection and enhancement of the environment and landscape, according to sustainability criteria, based on the reference regulatory framework.

Introduction to geological-environmental programming and planning with sustainability criteria. Regulatory references: DPR 328/2001, D.Lgs. 152/2006, soil defense from L.183/89 to PAI, Flood Directive 2006/60/CE, water basin directive 2000/60/CE, D.Lgs 42/2004.

Basics of geomorphology applied to rivers and slopes. The hydrographic basin and hydrological processes. The hydrogeological instability, criteria for the arrangement of the slopes and waterways. Risk prevention and reduction . Flood defense, structural and non-structural interventions. Planning of mitigation, requalification, protection and environmental enhancement interventions. Naturalistic engineering works to reduce and mitigate impacts. Land consumption. Monitoring of surface and underground water bodies. Environmental compatibility of the derivations. DMV-Ecological Flow. Safeguard areas of drinking water supplies. Hydromorphology and Idraim method. Quality objectives for surface and groundwater bodies. Hydrological and Water Balance. Sector plans and programs: PAI, PTA, PRG, PGRA Flood Risk Management Plans, River Contracts CdF, SDGs2030 sustainable development goals in adaptation to CC and Integral Ecology.

Knowledge and understanding. The student must demonstrate the knowledge of the topics presented, even in the context of their relations with other disciplines of the Earth Sciences.

Applying knowledge and understanding. The student must be able to correctly use the acquired knowledge, demonstrating the ability to collect and processing field geological data.

Making judgements. The student must demonstrate its ability to reason, following the logic of the teaching. In particular he must be able to plan a study and evaluation activity on geological-environmental issues. Moreover he must have the ability to deduce useful information from cartography and tools accompanying plans and programs.

Communication skills. The student must show that he is able to describe clearly and with an appropriate language the acquired knowledge. 

Learning skills. The student must demonstrate the ability to develop an individual growth path by integrating the didactic material provided with other specific material defined also on the basis of indications from the teacher. 

The teaching material prepared by the lecturer in addition to recommended textbooks (such as for instance slides, lecture notes, exercises, bibliography) and communications from the lecturer specific to the course can be found inside the Moodle platform › blended.uniurb.it

Assessment

Oral exam and discussion of an exercise

Disability and Specific Learning Disorders (SLD)

Students who have registered their disability certification or SLD certification with the Inclusion and Right to Study Office can request to use conceptual maps (for keywords) during exams.

To this end, it is necessary to send the maps, two weeks before the exam date, to the course instructor, who will verify their compliance with the university guidelines and may request modifications.
