Effects of light stress on wheat and rye varieties grain composition
Franco-Grandas T., Álvarez-López V., (Corresponding) Mosquera-Losada M.
Topic:
Climate change mitigation and adaptation
Integrating woody perennials and agricultural crops combined is a centuries-old practice, nowadays called agroforestry. Because agroforestry is being promoted by public administrations, it is essential to obtain scientific knowledge about the effect of different factors (e.g. tree shade) on crop...Read more
Influence of fires on atmospheric composition over Greece as seen by TROPOMI S5P
Kalogeraki E., Sfakianaki M., Gialesakis N., Chatziparaschos M., Daskalakis N., (Corresponding) Kanakidou M.
Topic:
Climpact: national network for climate change and its impacts
The present study uses data from the TROPOspheric Monitoring Instrument (TROPOMI) on board Copernicus Sentinel-5 Precursor satellite to investigate the impact of the forest fires plumes on atmospheric aerosols and gases. For this purpose, the Aerosol Index, nitrogen dioxide (NO2) and carbon...Read more
Monitoring of soil Greenhouse Gases emissions from a controlled burnt area combined with guided herbivory
(Corresponding) Mosquera-Losada M., Santiago-Freijanes J., Ferreiro-Domínguez N., Álvarez-López V.
Topic:
Climate change mitigation and adaptation
Rural depopulation as well as the intensification of farming systems in southern Europe have led to important changes in landscape and the ecosystem services they provide. Indoors livestock production is translated into a reduction or absence of grazing which ends up with a rapid expansion of...Read more
Prescribed fire combined with guided herbivory can control shrub development in an Iberian heathland
Álvarez-López V., Santiago-Freijanes J., Ferreiro-Domínguez N., Rigueiro-Rodríguez A., (Corresponding) Mosquera-Losada R.
Topic:
Agroforestry, forest and agricultural sustainability
The high amount of biomass fuel accumulated in Mediterranean areas due to land abandonment, combined with the effects of climate change, results in high severity fires that strongly affect local environment and social communities. Traditional fire practices and livestock grazing can be efficient...Read more
Agroforestry innovation networks (AFINET): Knowledge Transfer and Innovation
Rodríguez-Rigueiro F., Santiago-Freijanes J., Ferreiro-Domínguez N., (Corresponding) Mosquera-Losada M.
Topic:
Agroforestry, forest and agricultural sustainability
Agroforestry is recognised as climate-smart agriculture, being a powerful tool for climate change mitigation and adaptation. Considering knowledge transfer a capital challenge to overcome the needed transition towards this for the European Commission, the AFINET (AgroForestry Innovation NETworks)...Read more
Energy Supply of a Conference Center Towards Nearly Zero-Energy Building in Accordance with the Standards of the European Green Deal
SOUKOULI A., KALOGERAKIS A., ANGELIS-DIMAKIS A., (Corresponding) ARAMPATZIS G.
Topic:
Energy technologies and sustainability
In December 2019, the European Commission proposed the European Green Deal, a set of policy initiatives that aim to transform the European Union into a low carbon economy and achieve climate neutrality by 2050. Building renovation is a core element of the European Green Deal, promoting the...Read more

Holocene record of palaeoclimatic impact in Epanomi coastal lagoon basin, Thermaikos Gulf, North Greece
(Corresponding) Chantzi P., Papadimitriou E., Aidona E., Kantiranis N., Doani S., Vouvalidis K., Almpanakis K.
Topic:
Climpact: national network for climate change and its impacts
Sediment cores of 4m were sampled in Epanoni coastal lagoon basin in Eastern Thermaikos Gulf. Within this study, we present results of Magnetic Susceptibility (MS) measurements and sedimentological analysis (XRD and grain-size distribution) for the first meter EP1-1 aiming to contribute to the...Read more
Sustainable development assessment on Grass-based circular business models for rural agri-food value chains (GO-GRASS)
(Corresponding) Mosquera-Losada M., Rodríguez-Rigueiro F., Ferreiro-Domínguez N., Álvarez-López V., Franco-Grandas T., Rigueiro-Rodríguez A., Santiago-Freijanes J.
Topic:
Climate change mitigation and adaptation
Climate change affects temperate areas by increasing the risk of suffering extreme climatic events and sharping major problematics. Moreover, climate change and its related effects jeopardize water and food supply. Rural areas are key for sustainable development and provide socio-economics...Read more
