Boumenjel A., (Corresponding) Pantera A., Ammari Y.
Topic:
Agroforestry, forest and agricultural sustainability
Moringa oleifera (Lam) is a fast growing tree that is gradually getting more attention for it numerous uses. It is often called "natural gift" or "miracle tree" because of its many nutritional, forage, medicinal and industrial potentialities. Moringa oleifera appears to be a...Read more

Water Availability: A factor of sustainability and adaptation of agriculture to climate change
Papadopoulou M., (Corresponding) Charchousi D.
Topic:
Water policy, management and society
Climate change is expected to negatively affect agriculture. The effects of climate change on agricultural production are widely studied and adaptation strategies have already been proposed and even applied and assessed in many cases. A key component on agriculture vulnerability to climate change...Read more

Occurrence and distribution of hexavalent chromium in ground and surface waters in Cyprus under the CrITERIA project
(Corresponding) Zissimos A., Christofi C., Christoforou I., Rigas M.
Topic:
Efficient water resources management in cr(vi) impacted water bodies
The origin and distribution of hexavalent chromium, Cr (VI) over four seasonal cycles was investigated through a conceptual model that included three aquifer systems in Cyprus. An extensive water sampling grid covered two areas of known sea water intrusion of the local coastal aquifers, namely the...Read more
The climate change and relevant negative impacts are currently widely discussed topic. The agricultural soil erosion represent the risks generated also by agricultural activities reflected in soil quality. Rapid climate change can cause the instability of most agricultural and forest ecosystems...Read more

Topic:
Climate change mitigation and adaptation
Climate change is increasingly been called a ‘security’ problem, and there has been speculation that climate change may increase the risk of violent conflict. In this paper, the impact of climate change on the indicators such as war and insecurity, water and food resources, poverty development,...Read more

Drinking water from surface and ground water: production costs and influence of the climate change
(Corresponding) Verlicchi P., Grillini V., Maffini F., Benini A., Casoni R., Mari M.
Topic:
Water treatment
Drinking water production may be affected by climate changes (i.e. intense rainfall events and high temperature periods) which impact on the availability and quality of the water source, above all surface water bodies. Efforts are being made to adopt the best strategies in the drinking water...Read more
