The Agia Zoni II oil spill: Short-term fate and imprint on the marine ecosystem of the Saronikos Gulf, Greece

(Corresponding) Parinos C., Hatzianestis I., Chourdaki S., Plakidi E., Gogou A.

Topic:

Environmental impact of maritime transport

Herein we examine the spatial and temporal imprint of the September 2017 Agia Zoni II tanker heavy fuel oil spill on the marine ecosystem of the Saronikos Gulf, Greece. Based on the chemical fingerprinting approach, by means of gas chromatography - flame ionization detector and gas chromatography–...Read more

Polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons in surface sediments of the open Aegean Sea: Contribution of Maritime traffic

(Corresponding) Hatzianestis I., Parinos C., Gogou A.

Topic:

Environmental impact of maritime transport

Polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) were investigated in surficial sediments collected from 39 stations in the open Aegean Sea, in order to assess their occurrence, distribution and major sources. Total PAH concentrations were generally low, comparable to those reported in relatively unpolluted...Read more

The importance of water for life on the planet: Education for Global Citizenship

(Corresponding) Tzaberis N.

Topic:

Water policy, management and society

The water shortage observed is due to the fact that the environment has undergone significant interventions that led to a qualitative degradation of water resources, overexploitation, pollution, the dropping of water level, salivation of aquifers, etc. The prevailing situation seems to be...Read more

Implementing nature-based and other engineering solutions to recover water from non-conventional water sources

(Corresponding) Kappa S., Mamais D., Noutsopoulos C., Kisser J., Stanchev P., Katsou E., Malamis S.

Topic:

Circular economy and industrial symbiosis

Mediterranean (MED) islands and coastal areas are under pressure due to water shortage. Water reserves are depleted, while tourism in the summer months burdens the limited water sources. A persistent issue arising from the above activity is the increased seasonal loads of sewage that wastewater...Read more

Maritime Spatial Planning (MSP) in Greece: lessons learnt from the case of the Inner Ionian Sea – Corinthian Gulf

(Corresponding) PAPAGEORGIOU M., BERIATOS E.

Topic:

Spatial environmental planning

The marine area of the Inner Ionian Sea and the Corinthian Gulf was studied in terms of MSP in the framework of the SUPREME EU project, which was undertaken by the Ministry for the Environment and Energy, with the collaboration of NTUA, UTh and NKUA. Key task of the project was all countries...Read more

Spatial explicit evaluation of potential future developments of forests due to climatic change and nitrogen deposition

Dr. Jenssen M., Dr. Nickel S., (Corresponding) Dr. Schröder W.

Topic:

Enviornmental data analysis and modelling

Climate change and atmospheric nitrogen deposition can impact the integrity of ecosystems. Therefore, the EU Biodiversity Strategy foresees that Member States map and assess the state of ecosystems and their services in their national territory. By example of Germany, this article presents a...Read more

Anaerobic co-digestion of poultry manure and used cooking oil for enhanced biogas production

(Corresponding) Eftaxias A., Gkalimanis P., Koskinari M., Koumara A., Diamantis V., (Corresponding) Aivasidis A.

Topic:

Biowaste

Aim of this study was to evaluate the anaerobic co-digestion of diluted poultry manure (DPM) and used cooking oil (UCO). Mixtures of DPM with different UCO dosages (1 to 6% v/v) were prepared using a high-shear emulsifier and digested in batch anaerobic reactors. Increasing the UCO dosage resulted...Read more
