Impacts of Wildfires on Surface Runoff and Erosion: The Case Study of a Fire Event in Pelion Area, Greece
Psilovikos A., Mpouras G., (Corresponding) Papathanasiou T., Malamataris D., Psilovikos T., Spiridis A.
Topic:
Estimation and prediction under past and future conditions (climate, population, land use change)
Wildfires can trigger dramatic increases in surface runoff and erosion, because of the burned vegetation and the appearance of a condition of soil-water repellence. Fire-enhanced surface runoff generation and soil erosion constitute adverse effects of high concern for a long-term future period...Read more

Impacts of Land Use and Land Cover Change in a Mediterranean Mountainous Area on Surface Runoff During the Period 1945 – 2018
Psilovikos A., Katsada A., Malamataris D., (Corresponding) Papathanasiou T., Psilovikos T., Spiridis A.
Topic:
Estimation and prediction under past and future conditions (climate, population, land use change)
Changes in land use and land coverage strongly interrelated with changes in runoff. The effects of land use and land cover change on peak surface runoff and sediment loss, was investigated in a mountainous catchment, namely Lakka catchment located in Thessalia region in Greece.Most of the Lakka...Read more
