This course focuses on the analysis of the relantionships between geomorphological, climatic and environmental conditions and touristic activities within land management and planning
The course is aimed at providing theoretical and practical notions necessary to deal with the relationships between meteo-climate conditions, geomorphological features and tourist activities, also referring to land planning and management. Regional case studies, representative of various types of anthropic impact and geomorphological risk conditions, will be presented.
Regional case studies, representative of various types of geotourism valorization, anthropic impact and geomorphological risk conditions, will be presented for the comprehension of the role of Physical geography and Geomorphology in land planning.
