The Venice Organic Soil Subsidence (VOSS) project was undertaken with the objective of understanding the process of land settlement in this area, quantifying past and present subsidence rates, and advancing possible remedial measures that would not penalize the current agricultural activities of the area.The study, conducted in close collaboration with the local Land Reclamation Authority (Consorzio di Bonifica) and the farmland owners, is focused on a hydrologically controlled catchment, the Zennare Basin (Venice,Italy).
