Lago Grande di Monticchio

Lago Grande di Monticchio - Archive for Palaeoclimate, Environment and Tephrochronology

Laminated sediments recovered from the maar lake Lago Grande di Monticchio in southern Italy provide detailed information about the regional climatic and environmental development and unique chronostratigraphic information about the explosive activity of nearby (100-540 km) Quaternary Italian volcanoes.
