Topic:
Environmental data analysis and modelling
Is Greece greener than the current economic indicators show? GDP is used as the leading economic indicator of economic growth and progress. GDP as a measure, among other things, lacks an environmental component. In this paper, we have developed a Green GDP for Greece and neighboring countries and...Read more

Evaluation of environmental impact assessment factors in maritime industry.
(Corresponding) BOVIATSIS M., Vlachos G., Daniil G.
Topic:
Environmental impact of maritime transport
The environmental impact of shipping industry includes the pollution caused by vessels to air and water environment.
The water pollution is primarily caused by ship accidents and by untreated ballast water. To avoid maritime accidents, a complex system of regulations and safety management...Read more

Design of Road-Side Barriers to Mitigate Air Pollution near Roads
(Corresponding) Huertas J., Aguirre J., Lopez O., Lopez C.
Topic:
Air pollution
The effects of using solid barriers on the dispersion of air pollutants emitted from the traffic of vehicles on roads located over flat areas were quantified, aiming to identify the geometry that maximizes the mitigation effect of air pollution near the road at the lowest barrier cost. Toward that...Read more

UrbEm: a method and tool to refine regional emission inventories for urban atmospheric studies
(Corresponding) Kakouri A., Ramacher M., Kuenen J., Speyer O., Gerasopoulos E., Athanasopoulou E.
Topic:
Environmental data analysis and modelling
As cities are growing in size and complexity, the estimation of air pollution exposure requires detailed spatial representation of air pollution levels. Intra-urban atmospheric studies require up-to-date and credible emission inventories. The Copernicus Atmosphere Monitoring Service (CAMS) provides...Read more
