Magnetic particles were separated from soil and sediment samples from the Sarigiol basin. The sources of their highest values are ophiolite complexes and fly ash dispersion while magnetite is the dominant mineral. Ιron is the dominant element of...

The Etesian winds characterize the summertime circulation in the Eastern Mediterranean. Etesians are modulated by the Indian summer monsoon (ISM), but their response to other external forcings is not understood. Here, we investigate the response of E...

The current study examines an algorithmic solution for the reduction of carbon dioxide emissions resulting from the optimum energy demand coverage of a typical university campus via the contribution of an existing Combined Heat and Power (CHP) unit o...

The main focus of this study is to optimize proposed solutions for a residential PV-based net-metering systems with the option of EV adaptation, utilizing a weighted grading system. Technical, environmental and financial parameters are assessed to de...

Climate change due to extended fossil fuel utilization strongly affects islands all over the world. Greece has a large number of islands of various sizes. As far as the electrification status and the climate surcharge of Greek islands is concerned, t...

The transition to renewable energy sources for a sustainable, low-carbon future is driven by the need for the mitigation of climate change. The integration of RES-based systems and storage units can deal with the intermittent nature of natural variab...

Episodes of NNW-erly windstorms, known in the area of Balkan Peninsula as Vardaris, were identified, with the aid of wind archive data, from the Regional Meteorological Centre of Makedonia of the Hellenic National Meteorological Service of Greece. Th...

In this work, we utilize space-based radar products from CloudSat mission and provide statistics on the properties of the clouds observed above the PANGEA (PANhellenic GEophysical observatory of Antikythera) observatory, located in the Eastern Medite...

Ianos originated from a shallow low in Libya, which formed on the tip of a warm tongue of Saharan air on 12 September 2020, a couple of days before its transformation to a Medicane. The genesis of the incipient cyclone was associated with strong warm...
