dominated delta and its recent evolution, from 1997 until 2008, clearly shows a trend deflection to north (Fig. 2)
with the exception of 2006 shoreline which exhibits a lengthen of the delta river in south direction. Such process is
related to the drastic reduction of sediment supply from Basento river catchment due to human activities, land use
changes, land defence interventions and construction of water resource management infrastructures (“Camastra”
and “Trivigno” dams) all along the stream and into the river basin especially occurred in the ‘60s-‘80s period till
the ‘90s.
