| dc.description.abstract | The nitrogen and phosphorus loadings coming from diffuse, non-point pollution sources related to agriculture and animal husbandry in the Penios river basin in the region of Thessaly, Greece, were estimated. Detailed data on types of crops and field area as well as types and numbers of animals bred in the municipal districts included in the Penios River Basin District were collected from agricultural cooperatives and rural agencies in Thessaly. Related nitrogen and phosphorus loadings were calculated and all data were mapped in a geographic information system (GIS) environment to show how diffuse pollution is spatially distributed in the Penios basin and to identify areas with the highest anthropogenic pressures. This type of data is useful to a driving forces-pressures-state-impacts-responses (DPSIR) analysis - a tool suitable for the analysis of environmental decisions in the direction of sustainable development. | en |
