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
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
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
Effect of shade on production and grain yield in greenhouse wheat varieties
(Corresponding) Mosquera-Losada M., Franco-Grandas T., Rigueiro-Rodríguez A., Álvarez-López V.
Topic:
Climate change mitigation and adaptation
The effects of climate change threaten food security by affecting the production and quality of crops that are part of the world's food base, such as wheat. The crop-tree association can act as a tool to mitigate and adapt to climate change, and it is important to analyze the influence of the...Read more

Removal of phosphate ions and Pb (II) from synthetic water matrices using “green” synthesized zero valent iron
Tomašević Pilipović D., Jokić Govedarica J., (Corresponding) Kerkez D., Leovac Maćerak A., Slijepčević N., Gvoić V., Bečelić-Tomin M.
Topic:
Water treatment
In this paper, phosphates and lead were chosen as the priority pollutant, because their increased concentrations in water can be caused by the release of various untreated effluents and thus can cause serious damage to the environment. Nano zero valent iron synthesized by leaves, In addition to...Read more
CO2 and NO2 distributions over Greece as seen by OCO-2 and TROPOMI
Gialesakis N., Daskalakis N., (Corresponding) Kanakidou M.
Topic:
Climpact: national network for climate change and its impacts
Greenhouse gases are the driving force behind human-induced global warming. Carbon dioxide (CO2) is the greenhouse gas (GHG) with the longer lifetime in the atmosphere, in the order of hundreds of years, and the largest contribution to the radiative forcing of the atmosphere due to its increasing...Read more
Photocatalytic degradation of magenta effluent from the printing industry with composite catalyst
(Corresponding) Kerkez D., Pucar Milidrag D., Bečelić-Tomin M., Gvoić V., Kulić Mandić A., Leovac Maćerak A., Tomašević Pilipović D.
Topic:
Wastewater treatment
Water pollution is one of the most current problems related to human life and survival. The high degree of pollution of the human environment is contributed, among other things, by the discharge of industrial wastewater into rivers, among which wastewater from the graphic industry is of great...Read more

System-Dynamic models for groundwater management in SW Messinia, under different climatic scenarios
(Corresponding) Kastanidi E., Maneas G., Panagopoulos I., Viaene P., De Kok J., Berg H., Manzoni S., Velaoras D., Karageorgis A.
Topic:
Climpact: national network for climate change and its impacts
SW Messinia, Greece, is an interlinked coastal-inland area in the Eastern Mediterranean region. Extensive olive tree plantations and tourism are the main human activities in the area, both of which depend on groundwater resources to cover their irrigation and supply needs. The same groundwater...Read more

Adaptation to Climate Change and Spatial Planning: The Case-Study of the Region of South Aegean
(Corresponding) Lazoglou M., Serraos K.
Topic:
Spatial environmental planning
Since the early 1990s, when climate change issues rose, the EU and its Member-States have introduced ambitious objectives and policies related to climate change adaptation, which directly affected its Member- States' climate policy framework. However, many policies concerning climate change...Read more
Daily Forest Fire Prediction modeling and Forest Fire Information System (FFIS)
(Corresponding) Apostolakis A., Girtsou S., Kontoes C.
Topic:
Disaster risk reduction and management
Forest fires in recent years are becoming increasingly devastating for ecosystems, human lives and infrastructures as they follow the climate change impact. In this context the fire monitoring and risk prediction is crucial to support Civil Protection Agencies in charge of the protection of natural...Read more
