The sinkholes: methodologies of investigation, historical research, monitoring and technique of intervention

Towns and natural processes of instability: evaluation, monitoring and mitigation

This volume contains the papers presented and discussed during the international conference Geo-Italy, VIII Forum of Earth Sciences, organized by FIST (Italian Federation of Earth Sciences), held in Turin from 19 to 23 September 2011. In particular 20 works have been collected, selected from the most peculiar studies, discussed in two scientific sessions properly organized by the researchers.
