(Corresponding) Antoniou M., Kagalou I., Hadjiouraniou G., Daskalakis E., Tsiarta N., Chamoglou M., Polykarpou P.
Topic:
Lakes, rivers, estuaries and ecosystem health
This study correlated the trophic condition of two Mediterranean water bodies with different typology with their water quality characteristics. The two studied cases included Polemidia Dam, a reservoir enriched with tertiary treated wastewater in Cyprus and Lake Karla, a re-established reservoir in...Read more

Statistical modeling of meteorological conditions and air pollution over Athens, Greece
(Corresponding) DELIGIORGI D., PHILIPPOPOULOS K., DIAMANTI A.
Topic:
Air pollution
The importance of meteorological parameters and topography in determining the air pollution levels in a specific area is well established. The aim of this study is to model the association between air pollution levels and meteorological parameters for a single site in Athens, Greece. The...Read more

Solar parks effect on soil properties: Initial results
Du Hamel A., Papadopoulos A., (Corresponding) Pantera A.
Topic:
Agroforestry, forest and agricultural sustainability
Solar power generation in Greece has only been increasing since the 1980s to become the main source of renewable energy. Today, around 4.1 million m2 of Greek land is covered by solar parks. This article starts with a literature review on how the photovoltaic panels impact their environment and on...Read more
