Geomorphology of the town of Rimini and surrounding areas (Emilia-Romagna, Italy)

Rimini is located at the southernmost end of the Po Plain, in Emilia-Romagna region. The geomorphology of the site mainly depends on the actions of the Marecchia River, coupled with marine processes in Holocene times. By creating a geomorphological map of the area, we highlight the factors that infl...
