Purpose
1) Plant biodiversity monitoring (temporal changes of coastal dune habitats and plant species; 2) Analyses of land cover changes at landscape scale (multitemporal analyses) using CORINE land cover protocol, scale 1:5000); 3) Coastal multitemporal analyses: coastal dynamics of coast-line along the Molise littoral.
