An Agent Based Modelling tool exploring decision-making processes for flood risk management
(Corresponding) Koutiva I., Makropoulos C.
Topic:
Water policy, management and society
Cities at risk of extreme hydro-meteorological events need to be prepared to decrease the extent of the impacts. However, the majority usually reacts to the catastrophe, having failed to proactively prepare against extremes. This can be a result of both absent structural protection measures and...Read more

Adsorption of Gatifloxacin from Aqueous Solution with Highly Stable Zr(IV)-Based Porphyrinic Metal-Organic Frameworks
Chen J., Wang L., Xu G., (Corresponding) Wang X., Zhao R.
Topic:
Nanomaterials in the environmnents applications and effects
Water stable Zr-metal–organic framework nanoparticles (PCN-224 NPs) have been solvothermally synthesized. PCN-224 NPs show spherical shape with smooth surface and particle size of approximately 200 nm. PCN-224 NPs can be stable in acid and aqueous solutions, as confirmed by powder X-ray diffraction...Read more
Introducing UWAB 2.0. and exploring next steps for agent based modelling in domestic water demand.
(Corresponding) Koutiva I., Eftaxias K., Makropoulos C.
Topic:
Estimation and prediction under past and future conditions (climate, population, land use change)
Domestic water consumption projections are needed to manage the urban water supply system in different spatiotemporal resolutions depending on the type of the supported decision. For instance, operational decisions require predictions of fine resolution (hourly or lower), while tactical and...Read more
Monitoring illicit stimulant drug use in Cyprus during the COVID-19 lockdown by UPLC-MS/MS
Psichoudaki M., Trapali A., Hapeshi E., Karaolia P., Savvidou M., Mina C., Michael C., (Corresponding) Fatta-Kassinos D.
Topic:
Wastewater-based epidemiology to monitor covid-19 outbreak: present and future diagnostic methods to be in your radar
The occurrence and spread of the novel corona virus SARS-CoV-2 at the end of 2019, has led WHO to announce the outbreak of a pandemic. Restriction measures were taken from authorities globally, in order to impede its spread. In Cyprus, a strict lockdown period was implemented on the 24th March of...Read more
