Basierend auf schriftlichen Quellen, hauptsächlich von 1881-1980 (ohne 1941-50), werden die raum-zeitlichen Eigenschaften von Gewittern mit Schäden im südlichen hessischen Berg- und Beckenland und im Rhein-Main-Tiefland (= UG) herausgestellt. Nach Auswertung des Materials in einer Datenbank erfolgt die Intensitätskategorisierung der Schadensvorgänge für gewitterbedingte Starkregen erstmals anhand der Ähnlichkeitsmerkmale von Folgeerscheinungen, für Blitzschlag erstmals nach Schadensaspekten sowie für Hagelschlag und Sturm mittels existierender und modifizierter Klassifizierungen. Diese Kategorisierungen können für alle Beschreibungen von Gewitterschadensereignissen in schriftlichen Quellen angewandt werden. Die einzelnen Phänomene zeigen deutlich voneinander abweichende Eigenschaften. So treten z.B. Starkregenschäden verstärkt im Frühsommer auf, Sturmschäden überwiegend erst im Hoch- und Spätsommer. Generell lassen sich zwei Jahresmaxima in der Gewitterschadenstätigkeit nachweisen (erste Junidekade, zweite Julihälfte). Schwergewitter mit Sturm (auch Hagel) aus SW-W verursachen überwiegend Schäden im südlichen und westlichen UG, aus W-N meist im nördlichen und östlichen UG. Gewitter mit Starkregenschäden dominieren im östlichen UG. Nach der hier vorgestellten Methode der Schadensschwerpunkte können für Schwergewitter aus dem westlichen Sektor (SW-W, W-N) Schwerpunktzugbahnen im UG gedeutet werden. Es wird die Möglichkeit aufgezeigt, die Schadensdatenauswertung auf historische Szenarien zu übertragen. Für Interpretation und Rekonstruktion dieser für die Belange der Historischen Klimatologie wichtigen Vorgänge wird Datenmaterial aus dem zurückreichenden Zeitraum bis 1700 verwendet.

Mediterranean coralligenous habitats are biogenic reefs characterised by high species diversity and built mainly by encrusting calcareous red algae, growing in dim light conditions. The global climate change and several human activities may threaten species living in these habitats, especially some of those that are considered particularly relevant in structuring and in maintaining the complexity and diversity of the benthic assemblages. Among them, the red gorgonian, Paramuricea clavata (Risso, 1826), which can form dense populations, in the last decades showed worrying mass mortality events. Understand the role of this “animal forests” in the coralligenous assemblages is of fundamental importance in order to design appropriate monitoring programs and conservation policies, especially in the marine protected areas. For this purpose, benthic assemblages were studied in presence and absence of red gorgonians at two sites at the Tremiti islands. Overall, the benthic assemblages significantly differed among sites, nevertheless in both places, clear differences between assemblages associated and not associated to the gorgonian forests were found. In particular, encrusting corallinered algae were significantly more abundant in the gorgonian understories at both sites. This result indicates that the gorgonians may promote the development of calcareous algae, which are the main builders of the coralligenous habitats. Moreover species diversity resulted higher in the assemblages associated to the gorgonians. The present study highlights the role of Paramuricea clavata as a relevant ecosystem engineer in the coralligenous habitats.

The red gorgonian Paramuricea clavata is considered a key species in Mediterranean coralligenous habitats and, when present at high density, its colonies may develop “gorgonian forests”, which are three-dimensional structures that increase habitat complexity. Mediterranean coralligenous habitats support high biodiversity but the structure and heterogeneity of communities can be strongly modified by several kinds of human-derived impacts. The global environmental change and human activity could threaten the coralligenous habitats and during the last few decades, Mediterranean suspension feeders have been involved in mass mortality events, in which P. clavata was one of the most affected. Without the complex three-dimensional structures formed by P. clavata, many benthic species may have not adequate sheltering and feeding opportunities. The aim of the present study was to investigate the ecological role of Paramuricea clavata in coralligenous habitats by comparing epibenthic assemblages established inside and outside gorgonian forests. This study was carried out in four sites randomly chosen, along the south-east coast of Elba island (north-western Mediterranean). The structure of the epibenthic assemblages were significantly different between area with and without gorgonians. Main differences concern very important taxa in the coralligenous bioconstruction processes like the encrusting red algae, Peyssonnelia spp. and Halimeda tuna, which were more abundant in presence of gorgonians. On the contrary, algal turf, mucilaginous algae and the invasive seaweed Caulerpa cylindracea were more abundant in areas without P. clavata. The presence of gorgonians may have a positive effect also on species diversity. The results of this study highlight the ecological role of P. clavata in the coralligenous habitats.
