Science - Geology / hydrogeology
Italian term or phrase: taglio
"Prima di entrare nella discussione delle attività di monitoraggio svolte e delle risultanze analitiche, appare necessario illustrare brevemente l’evolversi della situazione nell’area circostante l’isola dovuta alla nuova diversione del Po completata il XX/XX/XXXX con l’apertura del taglio della bocca del Po".

"si nota un incremento nelle concentrazioni di Cromo, Nichel e Piombo che probabilmente derivano dagli apporti fluviali del Po a seguito del taglio dell’istmo che ha portato a scaricare direttamente di fronte all’isola".
