Under average meteorological conditions, the island is water-sufficient (969 mm precipitation; theoretical water potential 3284 hm3; and total water use 610 hm3). Agriculture is by far the greatest user of water (78% of total water use), followed by domestic use (21%). Despite the high average water availability, water scarcity events commonly occur, particularly in the eastern-south part of the island, driven by local climatic conditions and seasonal or geographical mismatches between water availability and demand.

  • E-Greece E75 (NR-90, CH.182+400 – CH.184+600)
    Case Study E-Greece E75 (NR-90, CH.182+400Case – CH.184+600) Study The information detailed in this Case Study has been provided by RSI ‘Panos Mylonas’. The National Road 90 or North Road Axis of Crete (NRAC) is located on the island of Crete (South of Greece) and extends from one end of the island to the other (Kissamos to Sitia). The NRAC belongs to the comprehensive TEN-T network, being also part of the European E75 corridor. The majority of the road is a single carriageway. It was constructed long ago and was considered as freeway but, due to the development of the island through the years, it is now being operated as an arterial. The section of interest is located between CH.182+400 and CH.184+600, this being part of a wider route, connecting Selinari with Neapoli. This case study consists of an undivided road segment with one lane in each direction and paved shoulders with an Annual Average Daily Traffic (AADT) in 2017 of approximately 3.000 vehicles. Figure 1 and 2 show the location and an aerial view of the road section under consideration. Figure 1. Location of the considered NR-90 road segment Figure 2. Aerial view of the NR-90 road segment Case Study Case Study Crash Data History The road has a long history of crashes. On the road section between CH. 178+470 and 184+600, which includes the segment under design, nine crashes have been recorded during recent years (2012-2017), five of which led to fatalities.

Box 1346 Ann Arbor, MI 48106-1346 © 2007 Melissa Suzanne Eaby ALL RIGHTS RESERVED ii ABSTRACT MELISSA SUZANNE EABY: Mortuary Variability in Early Iron Age Cretan Burials (Under the direction of Donald C. Haggis) The Early Iron Age (c. 1200-700 B.C.) on Crete is a period of transition, comprising the years after the final collapse of the palatial system in Late Minoan IIIB up to the development of the polis, or city-state, by or during the Archaic period. Over the course of this period, significant changes occurred in settlement patterns, settlement forms, ritual contexts, and most strikingly, in burial practices. Early Iron Age burial practices varied extensively throughout the island, not only from region to region, but also often at a single site; for example, at least 12 distinct tomb types existed on Crete during this time, and both inhumation and cremation were used, as well as single and multiple burial.

  • The Painted Decoration of the Church of the Virgin at Sklavopoula, Crete. Author
    Восточнохристианское искусство 167 УДК: 75.052 ББК: 85.14 А43 DOI:10.18688/aa166-2-18 Jenny Albani The Painted Decoration of the Church of the Virgin at Sklavopoula, Crete Sklavopoula is a little village 20 km away from the town of Paleochora in the mountainous Province of Selino of the southwestern part of Crete. There is evidence that copper and iron were mined in the settlement in Roman times and, according to Dimitris Tsougarakis, the site was also occupied in the first Byzantine period of Crete (4th–9th c.) [34, pp. 272, 342]. An inscription in the Church of St. George at Sklavopoula, dating its earlier layer of paintings to 1290/1291 [14, pp. 431, 432, no. 1. 5, pp. 71–72. 12, p. 211], provides the evidence that the vil- lage existed also in the Venetian period (1210/1211–1669). There are two more religious mon- uments, datable to the Venetian period, preserved in the village: the Churches of the Virgin1 and of the Savior [12, pp. 213–214. 5, pp. 210–211]. Moreover, Sklavopoula was mentioned in a report of the year 1630 by the Italian engineer and cartographer Francesco Basilicata (Ven- ice, Biblioteca Marciana, Mss. Ital. Cl. VI, No. 1683) [27, p. 136]. The Church of the Virgin (Ill. 38) is a single-nave church, measuring 7.66 × 5.33 m, with a semi-circular apse projecting on the east and pierced by a twin-arched window. The church is covered by a pointed barrel-vault and divided in the interior by a transverse strainer arch in two bays.
