Due to its location near the Venice Lagoon and the Adriatic Sea, as well anthropogenic pressure, the Venetian inland is a densely populated area undergoing salinization processes of soil and groundwater. This strongly affects the economical and social development of the area, in particular agricultural and touristic activities, and the weathering of building materials in urban settlements. This research aims at assessing the present degree of subsoil and groundwater salinization, and identifying critical conditions in relation to economic activities such as agriculture and tourism.

Abstract
Due to its location near the Venice Lagoon and the Adriatic Sea, as well anthropogenic pressure, the Venetian inland is a densely populated area undergoing salinization processes of soil and groundwater. This strongly affects the economical and social development of the area, in particular agricultural and touristic activities, and the weathering of building materials in urban settlements. This research aims at assessing the present degree of subsoil and groundwater salinization, and identifying critical conditions in relation to economic activities such as agriculture and tourism.
