The workshop is organized by Prof. Antonella Ambrosio and Dr. Antonello Migliozzi www.coop-unina.org/naples-time-machine. It aims to bridge the gap between landscape ecology and history. In this regard, Prof. Cristina Montiel (specialist in historical geography and study of landscape dynamics in rural areas) from the Complutense University of Madrid, was invited to give a presentation on the acquisition and analysis, from archive sources, of data on wildfires and their repercussion on local dynamics over the course of six centuries in the Spanish Central Mountain Range.
