Studies show that ships use different treatment methods and often only treat part of a waste stream. This results in a difference between the amounts of waste generated and the amounts...Read more
Investigating the water, energy, marine land use, food, climate interlinkages in marine environment
(Corresponding) Papadopoulou M., Vlachou A.
Topic:
Spatial environmental planning
The conflicts observed in the marine environment between the installation of renewable energy production, aquaculture activities and tourism, highlight the need for a more coherent management. To this end, maritime spatial planning is being developed at the cross-sectoral level, so that human...Read more

Tzempelikou E., Parinos C., Zeri C., Iliakis S., Pavlidou A., (Corresponding) Abualnaja Y.
Topic:
Heavy metals in the environment
In this study trace metals concentrations in the water column are presented along the coastal zone of the Gulf of Aqaba and the Red Sea (Saudi Arabia). This is a baseline assessment of the metal pollution status of the water using trace metals (Cd, Co, Cr, Cu, Ni, Pb and Zn) measurements obtained...Read more
