DEVELOPMENT OF CONTINUOUS, LINEAR MODELS FOR MARINE BENTHIC MACROPHYTES DESCRIPTION

(Corresponding) TZOUVARAS N.
Topic: 
Marine environment and coastal management
The European Water Framework Directive has fostered indicator development, pertinent to biological quality elements, for ecological status assessment of coastal waters. For seaweed communities, the CFR index considers composition, abundance and physiological status, through four constituents (...Read more

Benthic litter density maps through low-cost underwater towed video camera surveys. An integrated approach.

(Corresponding) FAKIRIS E., CHRISTODOULOU D., KORDELLA S., GERAGA M., PAPATHEODOROU G.
Topic: 
Marine environment and coastal management
The marine environment is the final recipient and digester of litter. Floating and benthic litter constitute the majority of litter items in the marine environment while both remain quite unexploited due to their demand in high-cost and time-consuming surveys. In this paper we propose an integrated...Read more

Linear Bivariate Expressions for Marine Benthic Macrophytes Ecological Status Description

(Corresponding) Tzouvaras N.
Topic: 
Marine environment and coastal management
Regarding ecological status assessment with marine benthic macrophytic indicators as per European Water Framework Directive (WFD), linear models are being reviewed (either starting from discontinuous forms or modifying quadratic and algebraic forms). Through use of simple concepts, model...Read more
