AMBIENT PM10 CONCENTRATIONS AND THE IMPACT OF WIND AT AN URBAN SITE IN CENTRAL GREECE
(2012)
The goal of this work is the analysis of particulate matter with aerodynamic diameter less than 10 mu m (PM10) recorded in the urban area of Volos, a medium-sized Greek coastal city on the eastern seaboard of Central Greece. ...
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 ...
An empirical model of sediment deposition processes in Lake Kerkini, Central Macedonia Greece
(2010)
The deposition processes in Kerkini Reservoir, since 1933, are examined in this paper. Built on the course of River Strymonas at the plain of Serres for anti-flooding control, it was gradually developed as a multipurpose ...
Factors affecting the distribution of potentially toxic elements in surface soils around an industrialized area of northwestern Greece
(2012)
In order to investigate the factors influencing the distribution of 32 potentially toxic elements in the Ptolemais-Kozani basin, northwestern Greece, 38 soil samples were collected and analyzed. Concentrations of Al, Ca, ...
CARBON FOOTPRINT CALCULATION OF DESALINATION UNITS IN GREECE
(2012)
Fresh water shortage is one of the greatest problems of modern society; the explosive increase in world population, along with the unusual socio-economic development have led to an increased water demand, making water ...
USING A MARKET-TYPE ALLOCATION SYSTEM TO CONFRONT WATER SCARCITY: AN INTER-DISTRICT APPROACH IN GREECE
(2014)
This study examines the implication of a market-based system to allocate water regionally in one of the most intensively irrigated areas of Greece. The proposed approach combines elements from administrative allocation and ...
Examining urban sprawl in Europe using spatial metrics
(2015)
Urbanisation is a global phenomenon with an important impact on the quality of human life. Europe has been widely affected by urbanisation. One of the main characteristics of urban growth is sprawl, a negative form of urban ...
Adsorption of methylene blue and methyl red dyes from aqueous solutions onto modified zeolites
(2013)
Zeolite, hematite, modified zeolite and commercial activated charcoal were examined for their ability to remove methylene blue (MB) and methyl red (MR) from their aqueous solutions. Modified zeolite and hematite were ...
Estimation of Ozone Trend in Central Greece, Based on Meteorologically Adjusted Time Series
(2012)
Data referring to an approximately 8-year period (1999-2007) are analyzed in order to estimate the trend of the daily maximum hourly value of ozone concentration at the east coast of central Greece, where the summer ...
ASSESSMENT OF SURFACE OZONE VARIABILITY IN AN URBAN COASTAL AREA AT THE EASTERN MEDITERRANEAN
(2013)
The surface ozone is a pollutant of major concern due to its impact on receptors, at currently occurring ambient levels in many regions of the world. The aim of this work is to present the results derived from an analysis ...
