| Abstract |
|
The Zennare Basin has been selected to represent the peat soil agricultural farmland of the south catchment of the Lagoon of Venice. The area was reclaimed during the 1930’s and at present lies almost entirely below mean sea level (down to – 4 m a.s.l.). The extensive land subsidence that occurred since reclamation is primarily caused by the loss of sediment mass due to oxidation of the organic soil component, with consequential CO2 gas release into the atmosphere. Because the process is essentially controlled by soil temperature and moisture, a field experiment has been designed and implemented for the determination of the relationships that control the CO2 fluxes from the soil and the land sinking rates.
