Abstract:
Common cypress (Cupressus sempervirens L.) is an integral feature of the landscape of many Mediterranean regions (particularly in Tuscany). Furthermore, common cypress has multiple uses as ornament, timber, windbreaks, recovery of deteriorated soils, protection of slopes and the production of essential oils. During the last three decades, Seiridum cardinale canker of cypress has caused severe losses in woods, windbreaks and ornamental plantings in the Mediterranean area, significantly limiting the use and cultivation of this tree. In this paper we describe `Italico' and `Mediterraneo', two C. sempervirens varieties which were patented in 2004 for their resistance to cypress canker. Both varieties are particularly suitable for ornamental purposes because of their fastigiated columnar habit and the low production of male flowers and cones. `Italico' and `Mediterraneo' represent the recent result of the breeding programme on cypress, in progress since the 1970s. This program aims at: 1) obtaining a high number of canker-resistant cypress clones and multi-clonal varieties to be used for ornamental plantings and windbreaks and 2) finding mother trees for the production of improved seed for reforestation purposes.

Abstract:
Leyland cypress (× Hesperotropsis leylandii) is a fast-growing conifer used in most temperate regions as an ornamental tree for hedges and screens, and is one of the most commercially important trees in Europe. In recent years, severe diebacks and mortality due to cypress canker have been observed on Leyland cypress plantations in Southern Europe. This study was conducted to evaluate (i) the spread and impact of cypress canker caused by Seiridium cardinale in plantations of a sample area of 1,250 km2 in central Italy, (ii) the response of the most commonly grown Leyland cypress varieties to artificial inoculation with to S. cardinal, and (iii) the pathogenicity of S. cardinale isolates obtained from Leyland cypress. Of the 1,411 surveyed trees, 11.4% had been killed by cypress canker and 43.9% of the living trees were affected by the disease. The number of diseased or dead trees and the percentage of cankered trunks was significantly correlated with the mean trunk diameter of the plantations. Six months after inoculation, the size of developed cankers was significantly different among the inoculated Leyland cypress cultivars but all of them showed markedly larger cankers than the C. sempervirens canker-resistant control clone. All of the tested S. cardinale isolates obtained from Leyland cypress also caused cankers on Cupressus sempervirens when inoculated as conidial suspensions or mycelia. Leyland cypress is highly prone to contract cypress canker in the Mediterranean due to its high susceptibility to S. cardinale infections, low genetic variability among the grown cultivars, and cracks which form on fast-growing trunks, favoring entry of the fungus into the inner bark and the occurrence of infections.

Abstract:
Common cypress (Cupressus sempervirens L.) is one of the most widespread species in the Mediterranean area. It has been traditionally cultivated for its ornamental value, becoming a typical feature of urban and rural landscapes, and high timber quality. In the last 30 years, cypress has been subjected to important breeding programmes, aimed to select clones tolerant to the widespread canker, caused by the pathogenic fungus Seiridium cardinale, leading to various patented varieties today available on the market, as well as for genotypes producing null or low amount of allergenic pollen. Somatic embryogenesis is a suitable in vitro regeneration method for fast cloning of conifer trees, and the cryopreservation of embryogenic callus is a significant tool for the safe long-term conservation of valuable cell lines. Recently, a complete protocol for the production of cypress plants from somatic embryogenesis was developed for the patented clone ‘Mediterraneo’. Here, the coupling of somatic embryogenesis and cryopreservation may offer a superior tool to propagate and maintain selected genotypes of cypress by overcoming repetitive subculturing of selected embryogenic callus lines. For the above, this study aimed to compare different cryopreservation techniques (PVS2-based vitrification and slow cooling) with the ‘Mediterraneo’ embryogenic callus line. Best results were obtained after the optimization of a slow cooling procedure, based on the 30-min treatment of embryogenic masses with a cryoprotective solution containing 180 g l-1 sucrose and 7.5% DMSO, followed by the reduction of the temperature at a rate of -1 °C min-1 up to -40 °C and the subsequent immersion in liquid nitrogen (“two-step freezing”).

Abstract:
Cypress canker is a serious disease that has devastated Cupressus spp. in many parts of the world. In Mediterranean Europe it has caused the deaths of millions of trees. Three species of Seiridium, S. cardinale, S. cupressi, and S. unicorne, are associated with cypress canker. Considerable debate surrounds the taxonomic status of these fungi. They have been viewed as a single morphologically variable species, three distinct taxa; or two species based on the presence or absence of conidial appendages. Studies based on ribosomal DNA (ITS1, ITS2, and 5.8S gene) sequence failed to separate the cypress canker fungi. In an attempt to distinguish between the species associated with cypress canker we used histone and partial ß-tubulin sequences of fourteen isolates of Seiridium spp. from cypress. Analysis of sequence data showed Seiridium isolates from Cupressus spp., residing in two major clades. One clade accommodated S. unicorne isolates from Portugal and South Africa. The other major clade consisted of two subclades containing non-appendaged S. cardinale isolates. We believe the larger second clade, represents the cypress canker pathogens while the other clade contains the less pathogenic S. unicorne, which has a host range beyond Cupressus. This study thus provides strong evidence to support previous morphological data suggesting three distinct species are associated with cypress canker.

Abstract:
Cupressus sempervirens L. (Italian cypress), is a Mediterranean evergreen coniferous tree. Due to its ecological values, this cypress has been used in forest protection against desertification and soil conservation. Last decades, cypress dieback has been commonly observed in Tunisian forests. Symptoms of shoot dieback, necrosis, twig blight, and trunk cankers have been observed on cypress trees in Bou Chrik (Nabeul) region. The causal agent was identified as Diplodia pinea f. sp. cupressi. The mycelial growth rate of the fungus was evaluated by using four different media culture at 25 °C and at seven temperatures ranging from (5 °C to 35 °C) on PDA medium. The results showed that the species was able to grow in a range of temperatures ranging from 20 to 25 °C and showed a higher growth rate on PDA medium. A pathogenicity test was conducted on C. sempervirens seedlings, and the aggressiveness of the fungus was approved.

Abstract:
Cupressus sempervirens L., is native to the eastern Mediterranean basin and the Middle East. In the last decades, this plant has suffered severe and widespread damages produced by the virulent mitosporic fungus, Seiridium cardinale responsible for a pandemic disease referred to as “Cypress canker”. Since then, many studies have been conducted on insect vectors and associated plant pathogens but knowledge on the relationship between bark beetles and Cupressaceae-related fungi remains still scarce. In this work, ecological and bio-ethological observations were reported to shed light on the complex behavior of the bark beetle Phloeosinus armatus and its interactions with C. sempervirens in five selected sites of Tuscany. Moreover, the fungal communities associated with both P. armatus adults and its gallery systems were morphologically and molecularly investigated. Pestalotiopsis, Geosmithia and Penicillium were the most frequently recorded fungal taxa. Key Words: Bark beetle, Mediterranean Cypress, pest distribution, pathogenic fungi.

Abstract:
This study evaluates the performance of the ZEB Horizon RT portable mobile laser scanner (MLS) in simulating silvicultural thinning operations across three different Tuscan forests dominated by Douglas-fir (Pseudotsuga menziesii (Mirb.) Franco), Italian cypress (Cupressus sempervirens L.), and Stone pine (Pinus pinea L.). The aim is to compare the efficiency and accuracy of the MLS with traditional dendrometric methods. The study established three marteloscopes, each covering a 50 m × 50 m plot area (0.25 ha). Traditional dendrometric methods involved a team georeferencing trees using a total station and measuring the diameter at breast height (DBH) and selected tree heights (H) to calculate the growing stock volume (GSV). The MLS survey was carried out by a two-person team, who processed the point cloud data with LiDAR 360 software to automatically identify the tree positions, DBH, and H. The methods were compared based on the time, cost, and simulated felling volume. The MLS method was more time-efficient, saving nearly one and a half hours per marteloscope, equivalent to EUR 170. This advantage was most significant in denser stands, especially the Italian cypress forest. Both methods were comparable in terms of accuracy for Douglas-fir and Stone pine stands, with no significant differences in felling number or volume, although greater differences were noted for the Italian cypress forest.

Abstract:
Wildfires are common from summer to early fall in Patagonian forests of Argentina. Live fuel moisture content (LFMC) and leaf ignition are important factors for understanding fire behaviour. In this study, we determined seasonal LFMC and leaf ignition of some key fire-prone species of these forests, and their relationships with environmental variables. Species investigated were the native trees ñire (Nothofagus antarctica) and cypress (Austrocedrus chilensis), the understorey tree-like radal (Lomatia hirsuta) and laura (Schinus patagonicus), the bamboo caña colihue (Chusquea culeou), and the non-native black poplar (Populus nigra). LFMC differed among species, with caña colihue having lower values (LFMC <100%); ñire, laura, cypress, and radal having medium values (110–220%); and black poplar, upper values (>220%). Ignition characteristics differed among species (caña colihue > ñire > radal > cypress > laura > black poplar) and were inversely related to LFMC. Correlations between LFMC and environmental variables were highly significant for caña colihue, significant for ñire, radal, and laura, and weakly significant or non-significant for cypress and black poplar. These results contribute to our understanding of fire behaviour, and validate the fuel typology for Patagonian forests. At the same time, they add some useful knowledge for comparison with other fire-prone Mediterranean ecosystems around the world.

Abstract:
Sixty modern surface samples collected from mosses in different cypress forest communities (Cupressus sempervirens L.) on the island of Crete (Greece) were analysed for their pollen content. The samples were taken from six different cypress phytosociological associations between 23 and 1600 m asl, and fall within distinct rainfall and temperature regimes. The aims of this paper are to provide new data on the modern pollen rain from the Aegean islands, and to perform these data using multivariate statistics (hierarchical cluster analysis and canonical correspondence analysis) and pollen percentages. The discrimination of pollen assemblages corresponds to a large extent to the floristic differentiation of Cupressus sempervirens forest vegetation and indicates the existence of three new associations.

Abstract:
The work described in this thesis is concerned with economic and financial issues, including safety analysis, and their application to the companies operating in the Cyprus and Mediterranean cruise market. This thesis applies "financial and economic" methodologies suitable for a cruise product. They are used as the basis for the development of more scientific and objective financial and economic methods and safety modelling techniques applicable to the operation of cruise ships in the Cyprus and Mediterranean regions. A qualitative methodology is developed to analyse the passengers' attitudes to cruise tourism, the fundamental considerations of competition at sea and the factors considered important for choosing a destination in the Cyprus and Mediterranean regions. A business strategy model is developed to provide an established mechanism for cruise companies in making decisions on the coming into service of a cruise ship or when entering the cruise market. A Formal Safety Assessment (FSA) model is developed to determine its applicability to cruise ships. For this reason, a test case study, which is limited to one accident category, namely fire, is conducted in order to demonstrate the feasibility of the proposed methodology. A cost, benefit and risk assessment methodology is developed to help cruise companies in their strategic planning and decision-making process for the safest, economic and efficient operation of cruise ships. This thesis also presents a proposed methodology involving the use of investment appraisal and risk assessment techniques. This approach may be used by cruise companies to evaluate project alternatives and make decisions that will be beneficial for them. A generic cruise ship and anonymous cruise companies are used to demonstrate the methodologies developed in this thesis. Finally, the results of the research project are summarised and the areas where further effort is seen to be required to improve the developed methodologies are outlined.

Full text
Abstract:
This thesis reveals a culturally sophisticated Cypriot elite that moved with ease between Cyprus and Venice, between Orthodox and Latin devotions, between icon painting and up-to-date Italian artworks. Arranged in the form of microhistories, the present work discusses how the insular nobles negotiated their identity between the two centres during the early modern period. In Renaissance Venice, where they strove to be associated with the upper echelons of patrician society, the Cypriot elite followed the latest metropolitan trends, while on the island, where they were subject to a different set of social pressures, they opted for works in the traditional Byzantine style. At the heart of this study are three noble Cypriot lineages - the Podocataro, Costanzo, and Synglitico - that were well established in both Cyprus and the lagoon. Contrary to the prevailing perception of Cyprus as a distant colony where Renaissance culture found faint echoes only in the major urban centres, these families engineered and exploited opportunities for economic and social advancement that the shared political space of the stato da mar afforded them. Through the recovery of previously overlooked archival documents, the business and the domestic worlds of the three Cypriot families is reconstructed, while these sources shed new light on a series of significant paintings by leading Venetian masters.

Abstract:
This research focuses on the study of amphorae from Cyprus in order to reconstruct aspects of trade and the Roman economy in the eastern Mediterranean region, from the 2nd c. BC to the 7th c. AD. The amphorae, as the primary containers used in commercial activities, enable an insight into trading patterns and socio-economic processes. Trade was fundamental to the Roman empire for the accomplishment of the political strategy of economic exploitation of its territories. However, it is only fairly recently that research focused on the study of amphorae for the reconstruction of trade and the examination of the economy. Still, the bias towards the western part of the empire resulted in the obscurity of the eastern exchange networks, and the lack of sufficient knowledge concerning the broader mechanisms underlying trade. Despite the growing work currently undertaken in the eastern Mediterranean, trading activities in the eastern part of the empire remain largely unknown. Thus, by analysing data from a number of sites on this strategic island and combining them with existing evidence, the aim is to provide with this thesis an original contribution to the understanding of the complex economic activities of the island and the eastern Mediterranean region, and between the two parts of the Mediterranean. The main concern is the development and application of a solid theoretical and methodological framework for the investigation of production, trade and exchange, and consumption, as well as the associated social and ideological implications, and the diachronic changes.

Abstract:
Nowadays, buildings are responsible for the 40% of energy consumption in the European Union, with energy up to 68% being coherent with thermal loads. Acknowledging the great potential of building sector, a substantial amount of the current building inventory must be refurbished, based on the trade-offs between energy and thermal comfort. To this effect, this study investigates the impact of retrofitting measures in residential envelope for areas experience Mediterranean climate. Seven detached houses, located in Cyprus, were modelled, investigating 253 parameters of envelope interventions and also, 7,056 combinations of these measures. In general, the findings revealed a seasonal performance variation of interventions with regards to the outdoor climate. The application of roof insulation determined as the most economic viable solution during retrofitting (single interventions), achieving a reduction up to 25% of annual energy consumption with enhancement of the indoor thermal environment. In the perspective of synergies between interventions, the application of roof and external walls thermal insulation with upgrade of glazing system with double Low-E demonstrated exemplary levels of performance decreasing on average energy consumption up to 38%.The findings of this research will contribute on the development of guidelines for designers and house builders for a perceptual retrofitting of existing residential envelopes in Cyprus and also, for countries experiencing the Mediterranean climate.

Abstract:
Linking annual tree growth with remotely-sensed terrestrial vegetation indices provides a basis for using tree rings as proxies for ecosystem primary productivity over large spatial and long temporal scales. In contrast with most previous tree ring/remote sensing studies that have focused on temperature-limited boreal and taiga environments, here we compare the normalized difference vegetation index (NDVI) with a network of Pinus brutia tree ring width chronologies collected along ecological gradients in semiarid Cyprus, where both radial tree growth and broader vegetation activity are controlled by drought. We find that the interaction between precipitation, elevation, and land-cover type generate a relationship between radial tree growth and NDVI. While tree ring chronologies at higher-elevation forested sites do not exhibit climatedriven linkages with NDVI, chronologies at lower-elevation dry sites are strongly correlated with NDVI during the winter precipitation season. At lower-elevation sites, land cover is dominated by grasslands and shrublands and tree ring widths operate as a proxy for ecosystem-scale vegetation activity. Tree rings can therefore be used to reconstruct productivity in water-limited grasslands and shrublands, where future drought stress is expected to alter the global carbon cycle, biodiversity, and ecosystem functioning in the 21st century.

Full text
Abstract:
The main objective of this work was to understand fundamental processes related to incipient continental collision through studying the tectonostratigraphic evolution of Cyprus, in its Easternmost Mediterranean context. This was achieved by compiling structural, sedimentological and stratigraphic evidence from Late Cenozoic to Recent sequences, and by applying palaeomagnetic and luminescence methods of dating. In particular, the basin-fill of the Neogene basins provides a temporal and palaeogeographic control to interpret syn-depositional and post-depositional structural assemblages. Four neotectonic deformation phases are recognised. The Polis and Pissouri Basins originated as Tortonian depocentres in response to syn-depositional W-E/WSW-ENE D1 extension. The Maroni Basin originated as a Tortonian depocentre in response to syn-depositional NW-SE D1 extension. The difference in extension direction between west and south-central Cyprus is attributed to the curvature of the Cyprus Arc. The Middle - Late Pliocene D2 extensional/transtensional phase re-orientated the Neogene basins and resulted in syn-depositional NW-SE extension. A kinematic change occurred at ~3 Ma, attributed to the collision of the Eratosthenes Seamount with an active trench, the ‘Cyprus Arc’. Early Pleistocene to Recent D3a transpression generated strike-slip faulting along E-W trends, conjugate left-lateral NNE-SSW-trending and right-lateral NNW-SSE-trending strike-slip faults and reactivated Tortonian D1 NW-SE and NE-SW structures. Middle Pleistocene to Recent D3b compression produced intense NE-SW contractional deformation orientated along NW-SE trends. Optically stimulated luminescence (OSL) dating was used as a tool to constrain the D3a/D3b events, by generating a chronology for their associated sediments. D3 transtensional lineaments originated in the early Pleistocene (174.1 ± 20.9 ka < D3a < 76.6 ± 16.43 ka), and are still active today (Cape Kiti: 38.1 ± 13.2 ka < D3a < 12.1 ± 0.1 ka). D3 compressional lineaments originated in the middle Pleistocene, and were still actively growing at 76.8 ± 31.6 ka. To constrain the timing of regional uplift in south and central Cyprus, a magnetostratigraphy was generated for the Plio-Pleistocene units of the Pissouri and Mesaoria Basins. The results indicate that rapid uplift began in the latest Pliocene (c. 2.14 – 1.95 Ma), coincident with the large-scale progradation of Gilbert-type fan deltas into the Pissouri Basin, and the incursion of large fluvial networks into the Mesaoria Basin. In light of the new evidence, three alternative models for the Early Cenozoic to Recent tectonostratigraphic evolution of Cyprus are considered: model 1, subduction/incipient collision; model 2, advanced collision; and model 3, transpression. Some difficulties exist in detail, with all three models. However, at present the working hypothesis is as follows: areas to the east of Cyprus (Syria, S Turkey) were in a collisional setting from Mid-Miocene time onwards. Cyprus remained in an oceanic embayment (Levant Sea) further west and subduction continued during Miocene time. Compressional processes may have been active at depth during this time. Southward extension (trench roll-back) was taking place at a high structural level in S Cyprus, as with many other convergent margin settings (e.g. SW Peloponnese; Aleutians; Sunda arc). Subsequently, the collision of the Eratosthenes Seamount with the Cyprus Arc obstructed subduction and initiated rapid uplift of the Troodos Massif. The initial manifestation of this kinematic change was the generation of E-W-trending strike-slip faults and the development of conjugate left-lateral NNE-SSW-trending and right-lateral NNW-SSE-trending strike-slip faults. Transpression resulted in the reactivation of D1/D2 E-W, NE-SW and NW-SE structures. Subsequent deformation is documented in a compressional lineament in SW Cyprus. In addition, the over-riding plate in southwest Cyprus still appears to be undergoing gravity spreading outwards from the developing collision zone.

Full text
Abstract:
This dissertation studies the early prehistoric cultures of Cyprus from the beginnings to the Chalcolithic-Early Bronze Age transition in the 3rd millennium BC. Its aim is not to provide a culture-historical review, but to define, examine and explain processes of formative culture change in light of island biogeography and new evidence which has accumulated during the last decade. Current excavations on the South Coast not only indicate what may be the earliest instance of Mediterranean Island colonization, but they also hint at the existence of a proto-neolithic occupation prior to the aceramic Khirokitia Culture. This evidence is interpreted in terms of the causality of Quaternary biogeographic conditions and island colonizations by man and animals. Specifically, the discussion addresses the problem of inhibitive factors, the triggers required to overcome them, and the adaptive responses of the founder populations. Following colonization, excavated and surveyed sites attest to a widely distributed and culturally homogeneous aceramic occupation which lasted for over one millennium before disappearing in a lacuna in the archaeological record. A locational analysis attempts to define the rate of intra-island dispersal of this and the subsequent ceramic cultures, and it is argued that the use of a statistically meaningful sample of datable sites and the demographic trends it evidences contradict the hypothesis of an occupational gap. The themes of cultural continuity vs. discontinuity and demic diffusion are further explored within the framework of absolute chronology. A date-by-date discussion of 14C determinations for the Formative Period in light of advances in calibration and settlement stratigraphy is put in the context of artifactual and paleoenvironmental data and used as the chronometric underpinning for an explanation of the configuration of culture growth in an early island ecosystem. Fieldwork data are appended in a Gazetteer of Early Prehistoric Sites Supplement and a Gazetteer of Pleistocene Fossil Sites.

Abstract:
The dissertation deals with wood, bark and pith anatomy of trees and shrubs of Cyprus. It consist of three parts: (1) the anatomical description of stem wood, twig bark and pith of the endemic and indigenous trees and shrubs species belonging to the flora of the island, (2) the ecological wood and bark anatomies interpretation and (3) a study focused on conductive vs. mechanical tradeoff in climbers vs. subshrubs. Original samples for each species were collected during 3 field trips on Cyprus. About 270 species were collected, and 600 double stained (astra blue and safranin) slides were prepared. New lists of anatomical features were developed for the specific needs of this research, especially for bark and pith anatomy. The described species represent almost the entire woody flora of the island. A great number of them have never been anatomically described before. The anatomical descriptions are a perfect base for wood anatomists interested to wood structure of single species or the range of anatomical patterns within the Eastern Mediterranean region, and also for archeologist and palaeobotanists who determine wood remains, and for wood technologist who compare structures with physical wood properties. In the ecological wood anatomy analysis we observed wood diffuse porous structure associated to woody chamaephytes. We detected semi-ring and ring porous xylems related to nanophanerophytes and phanerophytes. Rays features seem to be associate to space filling in wood, and the rays dimensional features seems to be constrained by vessels. In fact, rays became larger moving from woody chamaephytes to phanerophytes, and the numbers of rays per millimeter decrease moving from woody chamaephytes to phanerophytes, maybe allowing vessels to be greater in taller life forms. Raylessness is clearly associated to woody chamaephytes. Rays composition vary from homogeneous in woody chamaephytes, to heterogeneous in nanophanerophytes and phanerophytes. The axial parenchyma was rare in woody chamaephytes, apotracheal in nanophanerophytes and mainly paratracheal in phanerophytes. Endemic species showed absence of axial parenchyma, raylessness, homogeneous rays, and did not show association to tension wood. We recorded a predominance of diffuse porous species in dry/hot site, and the presence of ring porous species in wet/cold sites. Diffuse porous structures were associated to rocky and sandy sites, and semi-ring porous woods to forest and shrublands habitats. Thick walled fibers species were associated to moist and ruderal habitats, thin walled fibers to forest and shrubland species. A clear trend was observed in fiber wall thickness vs. wood density: greater in the fiber wall thickness, greater is the wood density. The bark anatomical features describe sieve tube morphology and distribution, sclerenchyma presence and arrangement, rays, phellem, phelloderm, crystals, secretory structures, and appearance under polarized light. Sieve tubes were typically arranged tangentially in nanophanerophytes but not in woody chamaephytes. Bark ray dilatation was noted in moist site species but lacking in endemic, shrubland, and forest species. Sclerenchyma tended to be lacking in woody chamaephytes, and in endemic and dry site species. The tangential arrangement of fibers tended to be lacking in woody chamaephytes and Mediterranean species. The presence of prismatic crystals was associated with nanophanerophytes and phanerophytes, but not with endemic, shrubland, or forest species. Phloem homogeneity was associated with endemic species. Phellem homogeneity was associated with climbers, phanerophytes, and species of moist habitats. The association of sclerenchyma with life form suggests a biomechanical role, especially for young twigs. The level of endemism and the species' habitat were strongly linked to a number of bark features opening new fields of ecophyletic and ecophysiological investigation. In the third part of the dissertation the all sampled woody climbers (10 species) and most of the woody subshrubs (25 species) of Cyprus were characterized by their vessel and fiber anatomies relative to mechanical and hydraulic function. Consistent with their lower need for self-support, on average the climbers had lower wood density than did the subshrubs, and had a lower proportion of their cross-section devoted to fibers. Consistent with climbers’ need for higher hydraulic conductance and total plant height, climbers had vessel sizes and frequencies closer to the theoretical packing limit than did subshrubs.<br>La tesi si occupa di anatomia del legno, della corteccia e del midollo di alberi e arbusti appartenenti alla flora dell'isola di Cipro. Si compone di tre parti: (1) la descrizione anatomica del legno del tronco, e di corteccia e midollo dei rametti, (2) l'interpretazione ecologica dell'anatomia del legno e della corteccia e (3) uno studio focalizzato sul compromesso delle funzioni di conduzione e di sostegno meccanico in liane a piccoli arbusti. Nel corso di 3 campionamenti a Cipro sono stati raccolti campioni per circa 270 specie. Da questi sono stati realizzati 600 preparati anatomici a doppia colorazione (astra blu e safranina). Nuove liste codificate per la descrizione delle caratteristiche anatomiche della corteccia e del midollo sono state sviluppate appositamente per gli scopi di questa ricerca. Le specie descritte rappresentano quasi l’intera flora legnosa dell’isola. Un gran numero di specie sono qui descritte prima dal punto di vista anatomico. Le descrizioni anatomiche sono una base perfetta per anatomisti legno interessati alla struttura in legno di singole specie o allo studio della gamma di modelli anatomici nella regione del Mediterraneo orientale, e anche per archeologi e paleobotanici che hanno la necessità di identificare reperti legnosi, e anche per tecnologi del legno che confrontano le strutture anatomiche con le proprietà fisiche e meccaniche del legno. Le indagini di ecologia del legno hanno rilevato relazioni statisticamente significative tra legno a porosità diffusa e camefite legnose, mentre le porosità semi diffusa e anulare sono legate alle nanofanerofite e alla fanerofite arboree rispettivamente. Le caratteristiche dei raggi sembrano associate al riempimento dello spazio nel legno e le dimensioni dei raggi in sezione trasversale sembrano limitate dai vasi. Infatti i raggi sono più larghi nelle fanerofite arboree che nelle camefite legnose e il numero di raggi per millimetro diminuisce passando da fanerofite arboree, a nanofanerofite fino alle camefite legnose, consentendo così alla forme biologiche con altezza maggiore di avere vasi più grandi. L'assenza di raggi è una caratteristica tipica delle camefite legnose. La composizione dei raggi varia da omogenea nelle camefite legnose a eterogenea in nanofanerofite e fanerofite arboree. Il parenchima assiale è raro o difficilmente osservabile nelle camefite legnose, tipicamente apotracheale nelle nanofanerofite e principalmente paratracheale nelle fanerofite arboree. Le specie endemiche a Cipro sono caratterizzate dall'assenza di parenchima assiale, dall'assenza di raggi o dalla presenza di raggi omogenei e non mostrano alcuna relazione significativa con la presenza di legno di tensione. È stata riscontrata una netta predominanza di specie a porosità diffusa nei siti caldi e secchi, e di specie a porosità anulare in siti umidi e freddi. Legni a porosità diffusa appartengono a specie che vivono in siti rocciosi e sabbiosi, la porosità anulare è associata ad habitat forestali e di macchia mediterranea. Le fibre a parete spessa risultano legate a a siti umidi, fibre a pareti sottili ad habitat forestali e di macchia mediterranea. Un chiaro trend lega proporzionalmente lo spessore delle fibre con la densità del legno. Le caratteristiche anatomiche analizzate per la corteccia descrivono morfologia e distribuzione dei tubi cribrosi, la presenza e la disposizione di tessuti sclerenchimatici, i raggi, il sughero, il felloderma, i cristalli, le strutture di secrezione e la visibilità in luce polarizzata. I tubi cribrosi sono tipicamente disposti in bande tangenziali nelle nanofanerofite, ma non nelle camefite legnose. L'allargamento dei raggi nel felloderma è legato a specie che vegetano in siti midi, non è presente nelle specie endemiche, in quelle tipiche di macchia mediterranea a negli habitat forestali. I cristalli sono associati alle nanofanerofite e alle fanerofite arboree, non alle specie endemiche, di macchia e di ambiente forestale. L'omogeneità del felloderma è stata riscontrata nelle fanerofite lianose, in quelle arboree e alle specie di ambienti umidi. L'associazione di tessuti sclerenchimatici con le forme biologiche suggerisce un ruolo biomeccanico di questo tessuto, soprattutto nei giovani rametti. Il livello di endemico e l'habitat delle specie sono fortemente legati a diverse caratteristiche anatomiche della corteccia offrendo nuove possibilità di studio nel campo dell'ecologia e dell'ecofisiologia. Nella terza parte che costituisce la tesi tutte le 10 specie di fanerofite lianose campionate e la maggior parte delle camefite legnose (25 specie) sono state caratterizzate per quanto riguarda le caratteristiche anatomiche di vasi e fibre che hanno ripercussioni importanti nelle funzioni di conduzione e di sostegno meccanico del legno. In accordo con la loro inferiore necessita di auto-sostegno, le fanerofite lianose hanno una densità basale inferiore rispetto alle camefite legnose. Inoltre, le liane presentano una inferiore proporzione di sezione trasversale destinata a fibre. In accordo con le maggiori necessità conduttive e in relazione alla loro altezza, le liane hanno un diametro e una frequenza dei vasi che le colloca più vicine al funzione "packing limit" rispetto alle camefite legnose.

Abstract:
On August 15, 1995, at approximately 2000 hours, a flight of two (2) United States (US) Army UH-60A BLACKHAWK helicopters departed from Royal Air Force (RAF) Akrotiri (in southern Cyprus) for the US Embassy in Beirut, Lebanon utilizing Night Vision Goggles (NVG). Not long after departure, with both aircraft at approximately 800 feet above ground level (AGL) over the Mediterranean Sea, the second aircraft radioed the first aircraft informing them there "#1engine was on fire." Approximately 45 seconds later, the lead aircraft impacted the water at over 200 knots killing all four crewmembers and destroying the aircraft. After learning of the mishap, the US Army Safety Center (USASC) dispatched a team to the site. The accident investigation process had process. The Accident Investigation Board would utilize its 3W approach to answer three questions: "what happened?", "why did this happen?", and "what can we do to prevent it from happening again?"1 The investigation would be conducted in four phases and focus on three areas: material factors, environmental factors, and human factors. It was determined that the aircraft crashed as a result of human error. But why the human error occurred was not determined. In order to answer this question, two exhaustive studies were initiated.

Abstract:
The Eastern Mediterranean has attracted new attention on the gas potential in the world. In fact, overseas research in the eastern Mediterranean waters began in the late 1960s with a number of wells opened by Belpetco. With the overseas production of the region in recent years, it has entered the world agenda. However, these discoveries have triggered additional conflicts between the states on the establishment of sovereign rights and the limitation of the Exclusive Economic Zone (EEZ). In 2009, a large amount of energy was produced in the Eastern Mediterranean Region. The resulting supply, economic line in the westward movement, between Cyprus and Turkey, Turkey would reach out to EU countries. Arish-Ashkelon, which supplies gas to Israel, Jordan, Syria and Lebanon, has been identified as a pipeline. The other line is the Arab Gas Pipeline. The cooperation with the implementation of the line was met and accepted. But the Syrian civil war has postponed this view for now. When Cyprus joined the EU in 2004, the Sea of Levantine made the European Union a sea border for all practical purposes. In the early 2000s, Cyprus and Turkey's EU membership expectancy, could boost optimism about the possibility of a breakthrough. Turkey should not be admitted to the EU has prevented the solution of the Cyprus problem. Turkey and the Turkish Republic of Northern Cyprus (TRNC) and made clear that the agreement with the International Exclusive Economic Zone reached 200 Mile limits. The energy source derived from the region, the future of both Turkey and the TRNC will be able to improve the economic well-being. Thus, will contribute to peace in the region.

Abstract:
The constant decline of renewable water in the Middle East and North Africa (MENA) and the Mediterranean regions qualify these two regions the most water scarce in the world. Water scarcity can be defined as a situation where there is not enough water to meet all local demand. These demands may include water needed for ecosystems, agricultural and domestic use. Water is definitely physically scarce in the MENA and the Mediterranean regions with less than 1000 m3/capita/year and the scarcity is related to domestic water, fresh water for drinking and water for food production. Water scarcity in these regions is a function of both water supply and water demand as both applies in most of the countries. Using the Falkenmark indicator the Mediterranean regions will see increased deterioration in the availability of renewable water and more people will suffer the effects of water shortage. The area will face major constraints in meeting water requirements for agriculture in the coming decades. The severe impacts of the non-availability of renewable water in these regions are cushioned by the development of desalination technology that is at an advanced stage in most of the countries in the region. Water desalination technology provides unlimited and constant supply of high quality water, and reduces the pressure on freshwater ecosystems and groundwater resources. Selection of the appropriate desalination technology, use of renewable energy and a proper method of dealing with high salinity wastewater discharge are very important measures necessary to mitigate the negative impacts of desalination activity, reduce desalination costs and make desalination sustainable and reliable. This work reviews the nature of water scarcity in the Eastern Mediterranean region and advances in solar desalination using the Northern part of Cyprus as a case study.

The long-established research of Prehistory and West Asian/Northeast African archaeology (the former Institute for Oriental and European Archaeology, OREA) at the Austrian Academy of Sciences was transformed into a department of the »new« Austrian Archaeological Institute (OeAI) at the Austrian Academy of Sciences in 2021. This merging of several institutes into the new OeAI offers a wide range of new opportunities for basic and interdisciplinary research, which support the traditional research focus as well as the development of new projects in world archaeology. The research areas of the Department of Prehistory and West Asian/Northeast African Archaeology include Quaternary archaeology, Prehistory, Near Eastern archaeology and Egyptology. The groups cover an essential cultural area of prehistoric and early historical developments in Europe, Northeast Africa and West Asia. Prehistory is embedded in the world archaeology concept without geographical borders, including projects beyond this core zone, as well as a scientific and interdisciplinary approach. The focus lies in the time horizon from the Pleistocene about 2.6 million years ago to the transformation of societies into historical epochs in the 1st millennium BC. The chronological expertise of the groups covers the periods Palaeolithic, Neolithic, Chalcolithic, Bronze Age and Early Iron Age. The archaeology of West Asia and Northeast Africa is linked to the Mediterranean and Europe, which enables large-scale and chronologically broad basic research on human history. The department consists of the following seven groups: »Quaternary Archaeology«, »Prehistoric Phenomena«, »Prehistoric Identities«, »Archaeology in Egypt and Sudan«, »Archaeology of the Levant«, »Mediterranean Economies« and »Urnfield Culture Networks«. The groups conduct fieldwork and material analyses in Austria, Hungary, Poland, the Czech Republic, Slovakia, Italy, Croatia, Bosnia and Herzegovina, Serbia, North Macedonia, Bulgaria, Romania, Moldova, Greece, Cyprus, Türkiye, Iran, the United Arab Emirates, Lebanon, Israel, Egypt, Sudan and South Africa.
