- Abstract:
- ... Atmospheric new particle formation (NPF) is an important source of submicron particles. In remote background environments where local sources are scarce such processes may impact significantly on climate-relevant parameters. On the other hand, in urban environments, newly-formed particles are adding up to submicron particles emitted from primary sources. As the exact mechanism which triggers NPF s ...

- Abstract:
- ... Detailed analytical work based on mobile Raman microspectroscopy has been performed on a mortuary assemblage, comprising a group of 59 stone artifacts (vessels, implements and figurines) excavated in one of the richest burial sites in south-central Crete, Tholos tomb P at the Minoan site of Porti (ca. 2700–1700 BCE). Mineral identification was possible for over half of the objects examined and the ...

- Abstract:
- ... The past geomorphic activity of flash floods in the Eastern Mediterranean has been poorly understood. Despite the general increase in mean annual temperature and decrease in annual precipitation totals, intense rainfall during strong cyclogenesis is still expected under a changing climate. The aim of this study was to identify past flash flood events on the island of Crete (Greece) to (i) create a ...

Separate estimates were obtained for the volume of urine belonging to patients receiving antibiotics. It was found that the clinic disposed into the local municipal sewage network on the average 3,263 L/month of urine, from wh ...

In the south of Greece, in Crete and the Peloponnese, viticulture and wine consumption are mentioned in 2nd millennium BC Linear B texts. Despite the key role of the grapevine, however, little direct archaeobotanical evidence ...

The analysis is carried out for three distinct climatic periods: 1900–1929, 1930–1960 and 1961–1997. In addition to the use of AI, other drought related parameters based on Thornthwaite's water budget approach ...

Comparatively less attention has been devoted to other species within this genus that are also socio-economically important at a local scale, such as Phoenix theophrasti (Cretan date palm). The aim of this paper is to bring focus to this “forgotten” palm through an ethn ...

A key gap in our understanding of the causality of disasters remains establishing how spatially and temporally distant factors – ‘root causes’ – drive local risk conditions. This is particularly the case for small-scale but h ...
