Plastic Litter Project 2018: a feasibility study on detecting plastics in the aquatic environment using drones and satellite images

(Corresponding) Topouzelis K., Papakonstantinou A., Garaba S., Doukari M., Chatziantoniou A., Spondylidis S.

Topic:

Marine environment and coastal management

Plastic litter has been shown to pose a significant problem in the marine environment and the food chain at all trophic levels. Within the scope of Plastic Project 2018, we investigated the prospective use of imaging technology on airborne and spaceborne platforms in detecting floating plastic...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

Marine litter monitoring: the case study of Paros island

Marmara D., Kontomanoli Z., Cevello S., Ragkousis M., Kelaidoni A., (Corresponding) Krasakopoulou E.

Topic:

Marine environment and coastal management

Marine litter have been characterized as one of the main threats for societies, while among them, plastics have been found in various marine ecosystems. A monitoring project on marine litter, based on beach visual-surveys started in 2019, on Paros Island in the Aegean Sea, under the Clean Blue...Read more
