  • Fuzzy Modeling of the Climate Change Effect to Drought and to Wild Fires in Cyprus
    Fuzzy Modeling of the Climate Change Effect to Drought and to Wild Fires in Cyprus Xanthos Papakonstantinou1, Lazaros S Iliadis1, Elias Pimenidis2, Fotis Maris1 1Department of Forestry and Management of the Environment and Natural Resources, Democritus University of Thrace, Pandazidou 193, Orestiada, PC 68200, Greece [email protected], [email protected] 2 School of Computing IT and Engineering, University of East London UK Abstract. This is an intelligent modeling of the evolution of drought and forest fires, due to climate change in Cyprus. Original annual wild fire data records (1979-2009) and data regarding meteorological parameters were used. A flexible modeling approach was proposed towards the determination of drought risk indices in all of the country. Cyprus was divided in eight polygons corresponding to eight meteorological stations. A Fuzzy Inference Rule Based System (FIRBS) was developed to produce the drought risk indices vectors for the forest regions under study. An analysis of the spatial distribution of the heat index vectors was performed. Forest fires distribution through the island was addressed. All of the results were stored by using an ArcGIS, (version 9.3) spatial data base that enables more comprehensive presentation of the most risky areas. There is a significant increase of drought in the island and this has a serious effect in the problems of forest fires and heat indices. Keywords: Climate Change, Fuzzy Inference System, Fuzzy Drought Indices, Heat Index, Wild Fires 1 Introduction According to Olej and Hardi [1-2] sustainable development is understood as the one that ensures the fulfillment of the needs of contemporary society without jeopardizing the opportunity to meet the needs of future generations and at the same time it improves the quality of life while living within the carrying capacity of supporting ecosystems.

  • Government in the Republic of Cyprus: Responding to the Problems of Water Scarcity and Quality
    Government in The Republic of Cyprus: Responding to the Problems of Water Scarcity and Quality Alexis Pericli December 2018 Submitted to the University of Hertfordshire in partial fulfilment of the requirement of the degree of Doctor of Philosophy 1 ABSTRACT Water management is a significant challenge in The Republic of Cyprus. The country is subject to a number of water problems based on scarcity and quality, with these stemming from limited precipitation inputs, drought, the overuse of groundwater, as well as the spatial disparity of supply and demand due to population growth, agriculture, tourism, and climate change. The convergence of these aspects has generated water problems, which necessitate the use of particular problem-solving responses by government that are targeted at securing the provision of water services and sustaining socio-economic development. To understand how government in Cyprus has responded to water management problems this thesis adopts an understanding based on John Dryzek’s (2013) problem-solving rationalities of administrative rationalism, democratic pragmatism, and economic rationalism. These reflect and build on the three methods that societies use to coordinate and organise responses to socio- environmental problems, namely mandatory, voluntary, and economic approaches. The problem-solving rationalities provide a unique way of understanding government problem- solving due to an interpretation that focuses on the specifics of problem-solving, based on; actor roles, motives, and behaviour; rhetoric; the evolution of responses over time; as well as the use of multiple concepts that are brought together to offer a more inclusive conceptualisation. This research adopts a qualitative approach to data collection and utilises semi-structured interviews to understand the views, roles, and experiences of key actors in problem-solving.

Standard. " The remarkable series of photographs illustrating the traveller's record should alone inspire readers with the desire to visit Cyprus. The book is, altogether, thoroughly worth reading." Westminster Gazette. " A very interesting account of the life on the island, its history, and the cities which adorn it. Full of interest to the archaeologist and the historian. Indeed the book is most interesting, and the numerous photo- graphs are admirable." Daily Telegraph. " Many questions of policy and administration are discussed in a manner that derives additional weight from the author's close acquaintance with the conditions, and the book will be appreciated not only by travellers but also by the British tax- payer." Morning Post. " Mr. Stewart has written an interesting book on Cyprus, and indeed no mind with a sense for history and legend could fail to be inspired by an island whose annals incarnate all the romance of the Crusades." Tribune. " Very pleasantly does the author describe his visit to these historic places. He has not attempted a learned book, but has given us one that is not without instruc- tion." Liverpool Daily Post. "There are hints and suggestions which make a perusal of the book well worth the while of the politician." Glasgow Herald.
