Analysis of streamflow droughts using fixed and variable thresholds
(2019)Hydrological drought analysis is very important in the design of hydrotechnical projects and water resources management and planning. In this study, a methodology is proposed for the analysis of streamflow droughts using ... -
Application of the Sebs Water Balance Model in Estimating Daily Evapotranspiration and Evaporative Fraction from Remote Sensing Data Over the Nile Delta
(2011)Estimation of evapotranspiration is always a major component in water resources management. The reliable estimation of daily evapotranspiration supports decision makers to review the current land use practices in terms of ... -
Collaborative migration, coupling and simulation of water resources models through OpenMI
(2010)The present study describes the migration and coupling of a monthly conceptual rainfall runoff model named UTHBAL and a water reservoir operation model called UTHRL into the OpenMI standard. The models have been introduced ... -
Database design of a geo-environmental information system
(2014)Environmental protection from productive investments becomes a major task for enterprises and constitutes a critical competitiveness factor. The region of Central Greece presents many serious and particular environmental ... -
Determining a Socially Fair Drinking Water Pricing Policy: The Case of Kozani, Greece
(2016)The Water Framework Directive (WFD) 2000/60/EC clearly indicates that all member states should develop and apply water pricing policies to recover the Full Water Cost (FWC) (including the direct cost, the environmental and ... -
Development of a district information system for water management planning and strategic decision making
(2015)The overall objective of this work is the development of a District Information System (DIS) which could be used by stakeholders for the purposes of a district day-to-day water management as well as for planning and strategic ... -
The effect of spiral cold-bending manufacturing process on pipeline mechanical behavior
(2019)Large-diameter steel pipes, fabricated through the spiral-welding manufacturing process, are extensively used in onshore pipelines for the transmission of energy (hydrocarbon) and water resources. However, their use in ... -
Estimating the Water Resources Vulnerability Index in the Adriatic Sea Region
(2016)The Adriatic Sea countries face significant problems regarding cross-border water resources management. DRINKADRIA project aims at developing a common methodological framework, for efficient and effective cross border water ... -
Estimation of crop water requirements using remote sensing for operational water resources management
(2015)An integrated modeling system, developed in the framework of "Hydromentor" research project, is applied to evaluate crop water requirements for operational water resources management at Lake Karla watershed, Greece. The ... -
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 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, ... -
Identification of the key variables that can be estimated using remote sensing data and needed for Water Footprint (WF) assessment
(2014)Accurate assessment of water use is an important issue in a globally changing climate and environment, where water is becoming a scarce but essential resource. The concept "?Water Footprint (WF) of a crop is defined as the ... -
Isolation and characterization of bacteria from acidic pristine soil environment able to transform iprodione and 3,5-dichloraniline
(2015)Iprodione is a fungicide commonly used in a range of crops resulting in its common detection in natural water resources. Biological degradation constitutes the major dissipation processes controlling its environmental ... -
Land use changes and its impacts on water resources in Nile Delta region using remote sensing techniques
(2013)Sustainable water resources management plans depend on reliable monitoring of land use -land cover (LULC) changes. The use of the remote sensing techniques in LULC changes detection brings consistency and reliability to ... -
Policy for management of water resources in Greece
(2008)The quantities of water are not distributed uniformly in space and time. Greece compared to some other Mediterranean countries is found in advantageous position regarding the availability of water resources. However, there ... -
