In 2018, occoured 121 events with more than 80 cm above the medium sea level.The 29 october 2018, we experienced an high tide +156 cm above medium sea levelPresent m.s.l. is 30 cm higher, on average, than the value computed at the beginning of the previous century (1870). The maximum increase occurred from 1930 to 1970 because of the combined effects of subsidence and eustatism. After that period, and until 2008, m.s.l. seems to attain a fairly constant value. After 2008 m.s.l. shows again an increased trend. The increase of number of high water levels (>110cm) since the sixties is evident. While at the beginning of the previous century we can observe one event with water levels >110 cm per year, in the past years we have, on average, 5-6 event per year. Analogously, the number of events with very low water levels has decreased with time.For other informations, see the web page of the center for tidal forecast http://www.comune.venezia.it/it/content/centro-previsioni-e-segnalazioni-maree |

In recent years several categories of doctors (among these, pediatricians) have established that there is a connection between air quality and respiratory diseases in the Venice area and across the Po Valley. During the winter season2017/2018/2019, several cities decided to cope with this problem ad signed an "Padan agreement" against air pollution (ant thin powder) due to traffic,transport, biomass combustion for domestic heating and agriculture (spraying of zootechnical slurry). Air pullution is caused also by ship traffic back and fourth from the Port inside the lagoon, from the airport a from motorboat.More informations here http://www.comune.venezia.it/it/content/laccordo-il-bacino-padano |
