METIQ
The METIQ (namely “Modello Evolutivo del Territorio Italiano nel Quaternario”) project is a scientific initiative aimed at building a robust evolutionary model of the Italian territory in the Quaternary at 1:500,000 scale. More than 150 scientists from the italian Quaternary community are contributing to METIQ on a voluntary basis from academic and research institutions within AIQUA, the Italian Association for Quaternary. Furthermore, three major italian research institutes with a specific institutional mandate on Quaternary topics (ISPRA, INGV, CNR and OGS) have signed a collaboration agreement for METIQ project implementation.
