Paperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. This book delves into the complex hydrological interactions that determine the drainage conditions in the province of Ferrara, Italy. The author challenges certain misconceptions and assertions made in a previous report on the same topic, providing a thorough analysis and alternative perspective. The author begins by examining how the periodic closure of coastal inlets impacts water levels in the adjacent lagoon, demonstrating that the practice does not result in higher water levels than would occur if the inlets remained open. They then assess the contribution of various sources to the lagoon's water balance, including freshwater inflows from rivers and canals, and rainfall. Challenging the notion that the closure of the inlets is detrimental to drainage in the surrounding areas, the author argues that the amount of water discharged by drainage canals is largely unaffected by the lagoon's water level. They also question the proposed use of artificial basins and pumping stations to improve drainage, arguing that these measures would not significantly benefit the overall system and could potentially have negative environmental impacts. The book concludes by emphasizing the need for a comprehensive approach to water management in the region, taking into account the delicate balance between agricultural, ecological, and social considerations. The author's insights contribute to a better understanding of the complex hydrological dynamics of the area, offering valuable guidance for future decision-making and sustainable water management practices.
