Beach erosion due to climate change: evaluation and best mitigation practices in touristic beaches of North Aegean Islands and Cyprus – The methodological structure of BEACHTECH project

(Corresponding) Hasiotis T., Velegrakis A., Chadjimitsis D., Loizidi M.

Topic:

Beach erosion of island beaches In Eastern Mediterranean (Greece and Cyprus): assessment, monitoring and Management

The expected relative sea level rise (RSLR) and changes in the intensity/ frequency of extreme sea levels pose a growing erosion threat to beaches, the most important natural resources of touristic islands. In the framework of the BEACHTECH project, the beaches of Lesvos and Chios Islands (NE...Read more

A smart integrated platform for leakage detection on water supply network in Aigio town

(Corresponding) Chasiotis A., Piromalis D., Chasiotis S., Feloni E., Papageorgas P., Bousdeki M., Sofianopoulos M., Nikolopoulos D., Kouniniotis D., Mathiou P., Nastos P.

Topic:

Drinking water and health

Non-revenue water (NRW) is the volume of water participating in urban water supply processes, which does not generate revenues for the water utility company and it is divided into the water losses and the unbilled consumption. In the era of sustainable water resources management, the reduction of...Read more

Electricity generators in the European Union emissions trading system: definitional aspects in the light of a judicial decision

(Corresponding) Tzouvaras N.

Topic:

Carbon market

The "electricity generator" definition (introduced through Directive 2009/29/EC, based on electricity sale and effective since 1.1.2005) is significant within the European Union greenhouse gases Emissions Trading System (ETS). Established through Directive 2003/87/EC, ETS currently (2021-...Read more
