TL;DR: In this paper, the authors present high-resolution geochemical, physical and pollen data from lake sediments in Italy and from a Mediterranean sediment core, linked by a common tephrochronology.

Tephrochronology of the 100 ka lacustrine sediment record of Lago Grande di Monticchio (southern Italy)
TL;DR: The results of a tephrochronological study on 340 distal tephra layers intercalated within 72.5m of sediments in Lago Grande di Monticchio (southern Italy) are outlined in this article.
Journal ArticleDOI
Weichselian palynostratigraphy, palaeovegetation and palaeoenvironment; the record from Lago Grande di Monticchio, southern Italy
TL;DR: The palynostratigraphic record from Lago Grande di Monticchio (S. Italy) is presented in this paper, where an independent sedimentation-rate-based chronology provides an age of 101,530 calendar years BP for the lowermost sediments sampled.
Journal ArticleDOI
Vegetation history and palaeoclimate of the last glacial period at Lago Grande di Monticchio, Southern Italy
TL;DR: In this article, a high-resolution palynological study of a 51 m core from Lago Grande di Monticchio, southern Italy, has provided a palaeonvironmental record for the last glacill.
Journal ArticleDOI
Vegetation history and climate of the last 15,000 years at Laghi di Monticchio, southern Italy
TL;DR: In this article, the authors present a detailed analysis of the last 15,000 to 12,000 years of the Laghi Di Monticchio fossil pollen record, which provides evidence of former lake environments as well as data on the upland forest.

Mobility of a large-volume pyroclastic flow — emplacement of the Campanian ignimbrite, Italy
TL;DR: The trachytic Campanian ignimbrite, originally exposed over a 30,000-km 2 area around Naples, Italy, is the product of a highly energetic, gas-rich eruption as discussed by the authors.

Explosive activity of the South Italian volcanoes during the past 80,000 years as determined by marine tephrochronology
TL;DR: In this paper, a chronological reconstruction of the explosive activity of south Italian volcanoes over the past 80 ka is proposed from the geochemical study of marine tephra, interbedded in deep-sea sediment cores collected in the central Mediterranean Sea.

The campanian ignimbrite: a major prehistoric eruption in the Neapolitan area (Italy)
TL;DR: A geological, chemical and petrographical study of the Campanian ignimbrite, a pyroclastic flow deposit erupted about 30,000 years ago on the Neapolitan area (Italy) is reported in this paper.
