Analysis of microclimate and cucumber fruit yield in a screenhouse and an evaporatively cooled greenhouse in a semi-arid location
(2018)The microclimate and cucumber crop response in a screenhouse and in an evaporatively cooled greenhouse were studied in Oman during winter/spring and spring/summer cultivation periods. Measurements were carried out in two ... -
Analysis of the dynamic air conditioning loads, fuel consumption and emissions of heavy-duty trucks with different glazing and paint optical properties
(2022)The European transportation sector employs 10 million people and accounts for 4.6% of the European Union GDP. Due to climate change, this workforce is increasingly affected by high temperatures and radiant loads, particularly ... -
Computational fluid dynamics modelling of the microclimate within the boundary layer of leaves leading to improved pest control management and low-input greenhouse
(2021)This work aims at using the Computational Fluid Dynamic (CFD) approach to study the distributed microclimate in the leaf boundary layer of greenhouse crops. Understanding the interactions in this microclimate of this natural ... -
Evaluation of the AWR-WRF model configuration at high resolution over the domain of Greece
(2018)This study is a first attempt to obtain high resolution simulations of present climate in Greece, by applying dynamical downscaling using the Advanced Weather Research and Forecasting numerical model (WRF-ARW). We performed ... -
Greenhouse microclimate and dehumidification effectiveness under different ventilator configurations
(2007)In this paper, the efficiency of two different greenhouse ventilation opening configurations on greenhouse microclimate during dehumidification process with simultaneously heating and ventilation was analysed by means of ... -
Heat remains unaccounted for in thermal physiology and climate change research
(2017)In the aftermath of the Paris Agreement, there is a crucial need for scientists in both thermal physiology and climate change research to develop the integrated approaches necessary to evaluate the health, economic, ... -
Identification of climatic factors affecting the epidemiology of humanwest nile virus infections in northern Greece
(2016)Climate can affect the geographic and seasonal patterns of vector-borne disease incidence such asWest Nile Virus (WNV) infections. We explore the association between climatic factors and the occurrence of West Nile fever ... -
Indicators to assess physiological heat strain–Part 1: Systematic review
(2022)In a series of three companion papers published in this Journal, we identify and validate the available thermal stress indicators (TSIs). In this first paper of the series, we conducted a systematic review (registration: ... -
Interaction between indoor occupational heat stress and environmental temperature elevations during heat waves
(2019)Occupational heat strain is a public health threat, and for outdoor industries there is a direct influence from elevated environmental temperatures during heat waves. However, the impact in indoor settings is more complex ... -
Occupational heat strain in outdoor workers: A comprehensive review and meta-analysis
(2022)The present comprehensive review (i) summarizes the current knowledge on the impacts of occupational heat stress on outdoor workers, (ii) provides a historical background on this issue, (iii) presents a meta-analysis of ... -
“On-Line” Heating Emissions Based on WRF Meteorology— Application and Evaluation of a Modeling System over Greece
(2022)The main objective of the present study is the development of an “on-line” heating emissions modeling system based on simulated meteorological data and its integration with air quality modeling systems in order to improve ... -
Pm2.5 pollution strongly predicted covid-19 incidence in four high-polluted urbanized italian cities during the pre-lockdown and lockdown periods
(2021)Background: The coronavirus disease in 2019 (COVID-19) heavily hit Italy, one of Europe’s most polluted countries. The extent to which PM pollution contributed to COVID-19 diffusion is needing further clarification. We ... -
Rainfed cultivation with supplemental irrigation modelling on seed yield and oil of Coriandrum sativum L. using precision agriculture and GIS moisture mapping
(2021)The aim of the present study was to determine the effects of rainfed and supplemental irrigation, and sowing period (SP) treatments on coriander (Coriandrum sativum L) yield, essential oil content and umbel heights by ... -
Thermal environment of urban schoolyards: Current and future design with respect to children’s thermal comfort
(2020)Urban outdoor thermal conditions, and its impacts on the health and well‐being for the city inhabitants have reached increased attention among biometeorological studies during the last two decades. Children are considered ... -
Variability of airborne bacteria in an urban Mediterranean area (Thessaloniki, Greece)
(2017)The abundance, biomass and the taxonomic composition of the total airborne bacterial communities in a coastal urban area of Northeastern Mediterranean Sea were examined. In total, 27 air samples were collected across three ...
