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

European and IMO framework on the disposal of ship waste - Greek legal interventions
(Corresponding) Dede P., Manologlou S., Tselentis V.
Topic:
Environmental impact of maritime transport
For almost every type of ship-generated waste, there is a variety of waste flows and on-board treatment methods. Studies show that ships use different treatment methods and often only treat part of a waste stream. This results in a difference between the amounts of waste generated and the amounts...Read more
European environmental compulsory framework on shipping and ports
(Corresponding) KOTRIKLA A., Andrea V., Nikitakos N., Stylios C.
Topic:
Environmental impact of maritime transport
The European Maritime transport policy has embraced important environmental protection schemes that are directly or indirectly connected to shipping and port performance. A comprehensive database on the European Union (EU) environmental policy for the last 30 years has been attempted concerning...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

Towards a Holistic Approach for Small Island Tourism Analysis: The case of Camiguin, Philippines
(Corresponding) Reyes E.
Topic:
Environmental impacts of tourism and sustainable tourism development
Tropical small islands are perceived paradise destinations for most tourists, however, small islands are critical biosystems with finite, fragile and vulnerable yet unique set of resources. These features are not highlighted as a defining character that captures small islands spatial challenges and...Read more

Towards a sustainable water resources management in post-lignite era: the case of Western Macedonia, Greece
(Corresponding) Farmaki P., Tranoulidis A., Sotiropoulou R., Tagaris E.
Topic:
Water policy, management and society
In 2018, Public Power Corporation (PPC) employed 15,000 employees in the energy sector, mainly in lignite production, providing electricity to 6,900,000 customers in Greece. The total confirmed lignite reserves amount to 5 billion tons mostly resourced (1.8 billion tons) in the Western Macedonia...Read more

CONTAMINATED SOIL MANAGEMENT IN GREECE: EU AND INTERNATIONAL BEST AVAILABLE PRACTICES AND RECOMMENDATIONS
(Corresponding) Panagiotakis I., Strompoula E., Dermatas D., Toskos T.
Topic:
Soil and groundwater contamination and remediation
Contaminated soil management is one of the most rapidly developing environmental protection subjects. Unlike most EU countries, Greece does not have a robust Soil Strategy and as a result a Contaminated Soil Management Framework. Currently in Greece, contaminated soil management is part of the...Read more
