Designing Citizen Science tools towards increased awareness and participatory policy making for air quality: The Case of COMPAIR

(Corresponding) Kogut P., Celikkol B., Vervaet G., Schreer O., Renault S., Alexopoulos C., Raes L., McAleer S.
Topic: 
CITIZEN SCIENCE
Despite the concept of citizen science being around for a few decades, it is still considered a non-traditional data source, especially in policy circles. Further efforts are needed to build its acceptability by decision makers at various levels of governance. Determined to make this happen, the...Read more

Coaggregating Delftia acidovorans facilitates the metabolic activity of partner bacteria in drinking water biofilms

(Corresponding) Afonso A., Gomes I., Saavedra M., Simões L., Simões M.
Topic: 
Drinking water and health
Although bacterial coaggregation has already been identified as a key mechanism in the multispecies biofilms development in diverse environments, little is known about this highly specific type of cell-cell interaction in aquatic systems. In this study, a strain of Delftia acidovorans isolated...Read more

Water scarcity, energy independence and the role of hybrid renewable energy systems

(Corresponding) Bertsiou M., Baltas E.
Topic: 
Renewable energy sources
Water scarcity problems and the need for reduced consumption of fossil fuels lead to the transition to renewable energy sources (RES). The proper management of RES is the key issue, especially in small not interconnected islands. In this research work a Hybrid Renewable Energy System (HRES) on a...Read more
