Properties, best management practices and conservation of terraced soils in Southern Europe (from Mediterranean areas to the Alps): A review
TL;DR: In this article, a review of terrace soil properties, conservation and management in Southern Europe is presented, focusing on the northwestern Italian Alps, where terraced slopes are characterized by ancient origin and, presently, are subjected to specific practices for their preservation.
Journal ArticleDOI
Soil aggregation, erodibility, and erosion rates in mountain soils (NW Alps, Italy)
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors evaluate the agreement between aggregate stability and erosion-related variables and discuss the possible reasons for discrepancies in the two kinds of land use considered (forest and pasture).
Journal ArticleDOI
Mid and long-term ecological impacts of ski run construction on alpine ecosystems.

TL;DR: Evaluating changes in plant-soil properties and the long-term effects of machine-grading and subsequent restoration of ski runs reveals a satisfactory degree of renaturalization, even if the soil has still a lower chemical and physical fertility than the undisturbed sites.
Journal ArticleDOI
Fire severity, residuals and soil legacies affect regeneration of Scots pine in the Southern Alps
TL;DR: In dry, inner-alpine valleys, fire residuals and soil legacies interact in determining the success of Scots pine re-establishment, suggesting that high severity fire can promote favorable soil conditions, but distance from the seed source and high evaporation rates of bare soils must be mitigated in order to ensure a successful restoration.
