Agricultural and water resources development in Thessaly, Greece in the framework of new European union policies
(2009)The main challenges that inter-relate sustainable development with water resources management are to secure water for all humanity and for food production as well, to protect the ecosystems, to manage risk, to create public ... -
Applying an integrated methodology toward non-revenue water reduction: the case of Nicosia, Cyprus
(2016)Non-Revenue Water (NRW) is one of the major issues water utilities are facing today, especially in areas with severe water scarcity conditions. The WATERLOSS-DSS, a user friendly decision support system (DSS), was developed ... -
Assessing the results of a virtual pressure management project applied in Kos Town water distribution network
(2016)Water pressure management (PM) is one of the most cost-effective ways for a water utility to reduce water leakage, pipes’ bursts, improve the level of services provided to its customers and lower its operating expenses. ... -
Combining pressure management and energy recovery benefits in a water distribution system installing PATs
(2017)Gravity can play a beneficial role in certain water distribution networks (WDNs), although sometimes high nodal pressures occur. Excessive pressure may lead to several negative effects regarding the network's operation and ... -
Comparing Two Hydro-Economic Approaches for Multi-Objective Agricultural Water Resources Planning
(2020)Hydro-economic models are valuable tools that can be used in irrigated agriculture in order to improve the understanding of the status quo of water resources, the role of water in agriculture, and the system behavior under ... -
Computer Architectures for Incremental Learning in Water Management
(2022)This paper presents an architecture and a platform for processing of water management data in real time. Stakeholders in the domain are faced with the challenge of handling large amounts of incoming sensor data from ... -
A constrained multi-agent system compensating for self-lucrative behaviours in water resource sharing
(2012)This paper presents the development of a multi-agent model for simulating realistic water-sharing scenarios and a means of studying and assessing an ecosystem's viability by taking under consideration environmental and ... -
Deep learning in water resources management: The case study of Kastoria lake in Greece
(2021)The effects of climate change on water resources management have drawn worldwide attention. Water quality predictions that are both reliable and precise are critical for an effective water resources management. Although ... -
Determining public attitudes and willingness-to-pay for artificial lakes protection
(2016)This study explores factors influencing people's willingness to pay (WTP) for protecting an artificial lake. WTP was derived from a face-to-face survey of 564 recreational users of Plastira Lake, one of the most important ... -

The effect of sorptivity on cumulative infiltration
(2021)Hydraulic parameters of the soil play a considerable role in the hydrological cycle, irrigation planning, drainage, groundwater recharge, and water resources management. One of the most important hydraulic parameters of ... -
Estimation of the recharging rate of groundwater using random forest technique
(2020)Accurate knowledge of the recharging rate is essential for several groundwater-related studies and projects mainly in the water scarcity regions. In this study, a comparison between different methods of soft computing-based ... -
Evaluating demand management aspects of urban water policy. The city of Volos case, Greece
(2004)This paper examines the perspectives of the implementation of a demand-oriented policy concerning residential water use, which covers almost 70% of urban water. Water demand, water pricing policy, as well as building ... -
Evaluation of public perception on key sustainability indicators for drinking water quality by fuzzy logic methodologies
(2019)Social acceptance of water quality in urban areas depends on the perception and awareness of the stakeholders and the wider public. Moreover, the significance of social trust in stakeholders appears to be an influential ... -
Evaluation of Water Resources Management Strategies to Overturn Climate Change Impacts on Lake Karla Watershed
(2016)The effects of climate change on meteorology, hydrology and ecology have become a priority area for research and for water management. It is crucial to identify, simulate, evaluate and, finally, adopt water resources ... -
Groundwater modeling and management in a complex lake-aquifer system
(2007)In this paper, the hydrogeologic analysis and the development of a numerical model for the simulation of a complex system of aquifers in Northern Greece are presented. The study area faces a severe environmental danger as ... -
Groundwater quality and location of productive activities in the region of Thessaly (Greece)
(2007)In the present study the involvement of human activities is assessed in the revalorization of groundwater quality. The groundwater quality was assessed on the basis of physical and chemical analysis (electric conductivity, ... -
