abstract:
This study examines the anthropogenic pressures exerted on the coastal
environment in the stretch of coast between the Garigliano River and the Volturno River;
as happens in many coastal areas around the Mediterranean, even for this part of the
Tyrrhenian coast the reducing precipitation as a result of climate change and the
concomitant excessive pressure on water resources from human activities is causing the
salinisation of the aquifer.

To protect coastal systems need to use integrated informations allowing the
description of the impacts deriving by the anthropization to be implemented putting in
relation data on natural resources and data related to human activities and analyzing the
processes that characterize the operation and interaction. For the growing and continues
anthropization one can not but bear in mind the Environmental Ethics, because there is a
problem of common responsibility imposing to use prudent and limited natural resources,
not wasting and recycling. Also because in a social, political and international economic
environment, such as that which we live today, no country can imagine to save alone.
Compared to other living beings, man has come to change so much deeper the
natural habitat that surrounds him and to which it belongs: withdraws from Planet huge
quantities of raw materials; exploits increasingly intense sources of energy; inserts in the
natural landscape extended urban settlements and industrial; disperses in air and in water
large quantities of harmful substances. All this leads to profound imbalances in the world
and we are faced a precise ethical responsibilities towards future generations.
The construction of a parametric model remains the starting point not only to
describe the state of the environment but also to build computerized maps and models
environmental in support of spatial and environmental planning.
