  • Susceptibility and Hazard Assessment in the Ionian Islands for Highlighting Sites of Significant Earthquake-Related Hazards
    SUSCEPTIBILITY AND HAZARD ASSESSMENT IN THE IONIAN ISLANDS FOR HIGHLIGHTING SITES OF SIGNIFICANT EARTHQUAKE-RELATED HAZARDS Spyridon Mavroulis1, Michalis Diakakis1, Evelina Kotsi1, Emmanuel Vassilakis2, Efthymios Lekkas1 1 Department of Dynamic Tectonic Applied Geology, Faculty of Geology and Geoenvironment, National and Kapodistrian University of Athens (Greece) (E-mail: [email protected], [email protected], [email protected], [email protected]) 2 Department of Geography and Climatology, Faculty of Geology and Geoenvironment, National and Kapodistrian University of Athens (Greece) (E-mail: [email protected]) ABSTRACT The identification of the earthquake environmental effects by using various methods has become significant in recent years due to the fact that among others it serves as a valuable tool for revealing and highlighting sites of significant earthquake-related hazards. In the frame of the project entitled "Tilemachos - Innovative Operational Seismic Risk Management System of the Ionian Islands" included in the Priority Axis "Environmental Protection and Sustainable Development" of the Operational Programme “Ionian Islands 2014-2020”, the landslide, liquefaction and tsunami hazards in the Ionian Islands are analyzed and assessed by combining different methods. Landslide, liquefaction and tsunami inventories for all Ionian Islands were initially created. Along with the inventories, different thematic maps were used and combined in order to test the earthquake-induced landslide and liquefaction susceptibility and the tsunami hazard of the Ionian Islands. The main result is the identification of sites of significant earthquake-related hazards in the Ionian Islands. This study and its results could constitute a basic guide for the future urban design and planning and the sustainable local development since all scientists and agencies competent to the prevention and management of natural disasters can be informed and guided.

Located off of the far northwest coast of the country, Corfu lies in the Adriatic sea, east of Italy and southwest of Albania. The principal city of the island and seat of the municipality is also named Corfu. Corfu is home to the Ionian University. Historically Corfu has been controlled by many foreign powers, notably the Venetians, French, and British. The island is bound up with the history of Greece from the beginnings of Greek mythology. Its Greek name, Kerkyra or Korkyra, is related to two powerful water symbols: Poseidon, god of the sea, and Asopos, an important Greek mainland river.

  • Greek Legislation and Regulatory Framework in Civil Protection: a Comparative Analysis of Pre and Post the 4662/2020 Law
    IPRPD International Journal of Arts, Humanities & Social Science ISSN 2693-2547 (Print), 2693-2555 (Online) Volume 01; Issue no 06: November 07, 2020 An ongoing process? Greek Legislation and Regulatory Framework in Civil Protection: A comparative analysis of pre and post the 4662/2020 Law Christos Zacheilas1, Nikos Papadakis2 1 PhD Candidate, Department of Political Sciences, University of Crete, Greece, Email: [email protected] 2 Professor & Director of the Centre for Political Research & Documentation (KEPET), Department of Political Science, Deputy Director of the University of Crete Research Center for the Humanities, the Social and Education Sciences (UCRC), University of Crete, Greece, Email: [email protected] Received: 30/10/2020 Accepted for Publication: 05/11/2020 Published: 07/11/2020 Abstract The aim of this article is to examine and analyze modifications and changes in the regulatory framework (Law Changes) regarding Civil Protection in Greece, the way these changes are triggered and the time gap between each of those changes. Greece, over the years, has seen many changes in its Civil Protection legislation, each of them being triggered in different time periods and for different reasons. It is important to compare these changes with the previous Laws that were implemented, to check the responsiveness to emerging needs, as well as to focus on points that are important to be clearly outlined or are maybe in need of revision. The reasons that trigger a change in the regulatory framework can vary and are usually a result of the political situation of the country, the scientific and technological advancements, the responses of country mechanisms as well as the consequences of large scale disasters, the green policies initiatives and the European Guidelines.
