About this book

Language: Italian

This volume reports the ornithological yearly observations carried out in the city of Turin by 44 observers from 1989 to 1999. During this survey more than 40,000 data have been collected and analysed to show the ecological and faunistic major characteristics of the Turin avifauna. The city has been subdivided into 61 topographical and ecological units. A total of 187 species have been recorded; for each a comment text and a distribution map are shown. These maps present different coloured thematic backgrounds, so that the most apparent relationships between species and urban habitats can be immediately appreciated. The great amount of data collected may be used for an urban planning which takes into account birds conservation priorities and may be also used to decide integrated interventions of flora and fauna conservation.

Summary in Italian:
Questo volume sintetizza le osservazioni omitologiche effettuate nella città di Torino da 44 rilevatori, durante l’intero arco annuale, nel periodo 1989-1999. Nel corso dell’inchiesta sono stati raccolti oltre 40.000 dati. Introdotti dall’illustrazione dei metodi adottati e dall’analisi ecologica e faunistica dei risultati, vengono presentati, per ciascuna delle 187 specie osservate, testi di commento e cartine di distribuzione nell’ambito delle 61 unità di rilevamento in cui è stata suddivisa la città. Tali cartine, per meglio evidenziare i rapporti esistenti tra specie e ambienti cittadini, vengono presentate con sfondi tematici in colore diverso. Il grande numero di dati raccolti costituisce una banca dati utilizzabile per una pianificazione urbanistica non avulsa dalle problematiche di conservazione dell’avifauna e per interventi integrati di tutela della fauna e della flora cittadine nel loro complesso.
