Material of this extinct proboscidean was found in four localities in Northern Greece: Kaloneri and Sotiras in Western Macedonia, Xerias in Eastern Macedonia, and Larissa in Thessaly. In addition, published elephant remains from Ambelia, Petres and Perdikas, also from Northern Greece, are reinterpreted and also attributed to E. antiquus. Of all these, the Kaloneri elephant shows an inter- esting paleopathology: it was disabled by a broken right tusk. Ó 2010 Elsevier Ltd and INQUA. All rights reserved. 1.

  • Geological Mapping by the Use of Multispectral and Multitemporal Satellite Images, Compared with GIS Geological Data
    Geological mapping by the use of multispectral and multitemporal satellite images, compared with GIS geological data. Case studies from Macedonia area, Northern Greece. Dimitrios Oikonomidis, Antonios Mouratidis, Theodore Astaras and Mihail Niarhos Laboratory of Remote Sensing and GIS Applications, Geology Dept. Aristotle University of Thessaloniki, Macedonia, Greece. Lecturer Dimitrios Oikonomidis: [email protected] 1. Location and physical background of the study areas Image processing software: ENVI 4.6. GIS software: ArcGIS 9.3. Two study areas have been selected (Figure 1): Lithological units and faults were digitized from the maps of IGME. After that, 1) Kassandra peninsula, in Halkidiki Prefecture, Macedonia Province, Northern Greece geological maps (simplified lithology and faults) and rose diagrammes were 2) Thassos island, in Kavala Prefecture, Macedonia Province, Northern Greece. constructed (Figures 2-3). Then, certain digital image processing was applied to the satellite images, so that lithological units and photo-lineaments could be extracted. Lithological maps and lineaments’ maps were also produced. Finally, rose-diagrammes were constructed for comparing tectonic data from geological maps and lineaments derived from satellite images. Figure 3. Faults’ rose-diagrammes (azimuth/total length per class): Kassandra peninsula (3a/left) and Thassos island (3b/right). 3. Landsat-7/ETM+ image processing A Landsat-7 ETM+ image contains both multispectral and panchromatic bands with different spatial resolutions (30m and 15m). For this reason, an image sharpening methodology (else called merging or fusion) had to be applied, so that all the bands would have the same pixel size and could be processed easier. There are numerous methodologies for this, such as Principal Components Analysis/PCA sharpening, IHS (or HSV) sharpening Figure 1.

  • Forest Fires Distribution in the Continental Area of Kavala
    JOURNAL OF Engineering Science and Journal of Engineering Science and Technology Review 9 (1) (2016) 99-102 estr Technology Review J Research Article www.jestr.org Forest Fires Distribution in the Continental Area of Kavala D Filiadis 1Forester MSc, Forest Service of Kavala, Terma Argirokastrou, GR-65404 Kavala, Greece Received 10 April 2016; Accepted 15 May 2016 ___________________________________________________________________________________________ Abstract The prefecture of Kavala has a long history of devastating forest fire events in both its continental part and Thasos Island. Forest fire records provide useful information on spatial and temporal distribution of forest fire events after statistical analysis. In this case study, the distribution of forest fires in the continental area of Kavala prefecture is presented for the period 2001-2014 through a series of simple-method statistics and charts/graphs. The number of forest fire events and burned area are presented on a month to month and annual basis. Burned forest area is categorized in three types (forest, shrub, meadow) according to Forest Services statistical records. Legislation changes on forest-shrub definition during the aforementioned period, could potentially affect the consistency of forest fire records. Thus spatial imagery was used for a more uniform interpretation of forest-shrub definitions on the forest fire spatial data. The most destructive wildfire years were 2013 and 2001, affected mainly by a respective single large forest fire event. On the opposite 2004, 2005 and 2010 were the least destructive years for the time period studied. Mediterranean type shrub lands were by far the most affected vegetation type that were also affected by the two single large wildfire event in 2001 and 2013.

Retrieved from http://www.ijello.org/Volume12/IJELLv12p033-055Goumas2208.pdf Greek Nursery School Teachers’ Thoughts and Self-Efficacy on using ICT in Relation to Their School Unit Position: The Case of Kavala Stefanos Goumas, Symeon Symeonidis, and Michail Salonidis Business Administration Department, Technological Educational Institute of Eastern Macedonian and Trace, Kavala, Greece [email protected], [email protected], [email protected] Abstract The purpose of this research is the exploration of the opinions and level of self-efficacy in the usage of Information Communication Technologies (ICTs) of teachers in Greek pre-schools in the learning process and administration of nurseries. By using the term “usage and utilisation of ICTs in the learning process” we mean the utilisation of the capabilities that new technologies offer in an educationally appropriate way so that the learning process yields positive results. By using the term “self-efficacy” we describe the strength of one’s belief in one’s own ability to use the capabilities he or she possess. In this way, the beliefs of the person in his or her ability to use a personal computer constitute the self-efficacy in computer usage. The research sample consists of 128 pre-school teachers that work in the prefecture of Kavala. Kavala’s prefecture is a repre- sentative example of an Education Authority since it consists of urban, suburban, and rural areas.

  • Ljubljana. December 2009
    LJUBLJANA. DECEMBER 2009 FIRST RECORD OF NEVRORTHIDAE FROM SLOVENIA Joshua R. JONESl and Dusan DEVETAK2 ITexas A&M University, College Station, TX, 77843-2475, U.S.A. E-mail: [email protected] 2Department of Biology, FNM, University of Maribor, Koroska c. 160, 2000 Maribor, Slovenia Abstract - Nevrorthus apatelios H. Aspock, U. Aspock et Holzel, 1977 is recorded for the first time from Slovenia. The finding on the southwest slopes of the eastern Julian Alps represents the northernmost record for the family in Europe. A list of known localities for N. apatelios is provided in an appendix. KEY WORDS: Neuroptera, Nevrorthus apatelios, new record, Slovenia Izvlecek - PRVA NAJDBA DRUZINE NEVRORTHIDAE V SLOVENIJI Prvic je v Sloveniji zabelezena najdba vrste Nevrorthus apatelios H. Aspock, U. Aspock et Holzel, 1977. Najdba najugozahodnih pobocjih vzhodnih Julijskih Alp je najsevernejsa najdba druzine v Evropi. Spisek znanih najdisc vrste N. apatelios je sestavljen v dodatku. KLJUCNE BESEDE: Neuroptera, Nevrorthus apatelios, nova najdba, Slovenija Recently, Letardi et ale (2005) reported the occurrence of Nevrorthus apatelios H. Aspock, U. Aspock et Holzel (1977) in the Friuli region of northern Italy_ This dis­ covery significantly expanded the known geographic distribution of this primarily Balkan species, increasing its documented range by 3° latituqe to the north and 4° longitude to the west. This unexpected discovery has suggested that nevrorthids, which are rarely collected and appear to be very locally distributed, may have a greater distribution in southeastern Europe than previously realized. On 22 June 2008, the first author collected two adult male specimens of N. apate­ lios in the Goriska region of western Slovenia.
