Assessment of remotely sensed drought features in vulnerable agriculture
(2012)The growing number and effectiveness of Earth observation satellite systems, along with the increasing reliability of remote sensing methodologies and techniques, present a wide range of new capabilities in monitoring and ... -
Computer-assisted evaluation of Mandibular Cortical Width (MCW) index as an indicator of osteoporosis
(2014)Background: To assess the diagnostic accuracy of mandibular cortical width (MCW) as an indicator of the presence of osteoporosis. Materials and methods: The study included 343 women between 45-75 years of age. After informed ... -
Effect of Irrigation Scheduling on Gerbera Flower Yield and Quality
(2010)Better understanding of the effects of irrigation frequency and dose on flower production of gerbera plants (Gerbera jamesonii) can lead to optimal water management and crop yield. Measurements of greenhouse microclimate ... -
EFFECT OF SURFACE OZONE EXPOSURE ON VEGETATION IN THE GREATER AREA OF VOLOS, GREECE
(2012)The critical level of air pollutants in the atmosphere is the concentration above which adverse effects occur on sensitive receptors, such as plants and ecosystems. Ozone is the most important air pollutant in Europe ... -
The effects of muscle damage on running economy in healthy males
(2005)Published information on aspects related to Muscle damage and running economy is both limited and contradictory. To contribute to the current debate, we investigated the effects of an eccentric exercise session on selected ... -
Equal volumes of high and low intensity of eccentric exercise in relation to muscle damage and performance
(2005)We examined differences in muscle damage and muscle performance perturbations in relation to the same volumes of high (HI) and low intensity (LI) of eccentric exercise. Untrained young healthy men (n = 12) underwent 2 ... -
EVALUATION OF WATER QUALITY OF A MOUNTAINOUS STREAM (PELION, CENTRAL GREECE) USING BENTHIC MACROINVERTEBRATES
(2014)Biotic indices are commonly used in biomonitoring programs to assess the quality of surface waters. In the present study, a number of biotic indices based on benthic macroinvertebrates have been applied in assessing the ... -
Measuring biodiversity performance: A conditional efficiency measurement approach
(2010)This paper uses a methodological framework based on the new advances of Data Envelopment Analysis (DEA) and a sample of 71 developed, developing and under-developed countries to model and evaluate their biodiversity ... -
Measuring economic journals' citation efficiency: a data envelopment analysis approach
(2011)This paper by using data envelopment analysis (DEA) and statistical inference evaluates the citation performance of 229 economic journals. The paper categorizes the journals into four main categories (A-D) based on their ... -
Selecting landscape metrics as indicators of spatial heterogeneity-A comparison among Greek landscapes
(2014)This paper investigates the spatial heterogeneity of three landscapes along an altitudinal gradient and different human land use. The main aim was the identification of appropriate landscape indicators using different ... -
Spatial monitoring of arsenic and heavy metals in the Almyros area, Central Greece. Statistical approach for assessing the sources of contamination
(2015)The purpose of this work was to provide information on As and heavy metals content in surface soils of the Almyros area, in Central Greece. A 3-year (2009-2011) research was conducted, in order to investigate the possible ...
