The conference was organized by the Society of Ecotoxicology and Environmental Safety (SECOTOX) as well as the Department of Planning and Regional Development, University of Thessaly, the German Research Center for Environmental Health, Germany, the Sector of Industrial Management and Operations Research, School of Mechanical Engineering, National Technical University of Athens, the Division of Hydraulics and Environmental Engineering, Department of Civil Engineering, Aristotle University of Thessaloniki, and the Food Technology Department, Technological Educational Institute of Thessaloniki. An international board of environmental scientists comprised its scientific community. CEMEPE congresses have grown to be keystone congregations for environmental scientists. They are held on a biennial basis in selected places around Greece, characterized by both natural splendor and cultural significance. The aim of these congresses is to bring together experts from a variety of disciplines from the scientific community, to present and share their research related to environmental issues. The papers that are selected to be published in this Special Issue relate to the most important aspects discussed at the Conference in the thematic areas of Wastewater Monitoring and Management, Water Pollution, Energy and Environment, as well as Transport and Environment. Water and wastewater pollution and management are of utmost importance in the viability of urban environments and planet earth as a whole. Moreover, all human activities consume great amounts of energy, which unreservedly affects the environment.

A viable environment, on the other hand, requires less energy consumption, less transportation, and implicitly less economic growth. Sustainability attempts to bridge today¶VQHHGV with tomorrow¶VVHFXULW\. By sustainability we infer to renewable energy sources, reducing of carbon emissions, protecting environment and keeping the delicate ecosystems of our planet in balance. In short, sustainability aims to protect our natural environment, human and ecological health, while driving innovation and not compromising quality of life. We believe that the subjects contained in this Issue will help researchers, students and practitioners to thrive in environmental science, sustainable engineering management and planning. We hope that the ideas and perspectives will encourage researchers to create more efficient and environmentally friendly systems. We would like to express our heartiest appreciation to all the authors of the papers submitted to the Special Issue, as well as to the Editor of the Journal, Professor H. Parlar, for his help throughout the handling of the manuscripts. Special thanks to the reviewers, for the time and effort they devoted in order to ensure high standards for the submitted manuscripts.

These kites consists of two long low stone- walls lead outward in a funnel-like shape, often with some sort of stone enclosure where the walls meet; they are presumed to be animal traps used by hunters. Little known about the age of these kites because of an absence of attributable artefacts, and the lack of organic matter suitable for carbon dating. The luminescence samples were taken from recently excavated kite in Jibal al-Ghadiwiyat in the east of al-Jafr (south-east Jordan). One rock sample was excavated from a pit in the kite enclosure; the sample was part of a long upright slab that forms part of the wall of the pit. Sediment samples from the infill of the pit were also collected for single grain measurements. The quartz from both the sandstone construction materials and the infill sediments (accumulated since site abandonment) are very suitable for luminescence measurements (high sensitivity, fast-component dominated).

Porphyry Cu-Mo-Au, high-intermediate sulfidation epithermal Au-Ag deposits and other intrusion-related proximal to distal systems (skarn, carbonate replacement, metamorphic rock-hosted quartz veins) are characterized by enrichment of trace metallic minerals like bismuth sulfosalts and Bi-sulfotellurides, precious- and base metal tellurides and Se-bearing phases, which can be considered as pathfinder minerals for gold as they are intimately associated with gold-bearing ores.

  • Computation of Hydro-Geomorphologic Changes In
    Chapter 2 Computation of Hydro-geomorphologic Changes in Two Basins of Northeastern Greece Konstantinos Kaffas and Vlassios Hrissanthou Konstantinos Kaffas and Vlassios Hrissanthou Additional information is available at the end of the chapter Additional information is available at the end of the chapter http://dx.doi.org/10.5772/intechopen.68655 Abstract This chapter presents a composite mathematical model aiming at continuous simulations of hydro-geomorphological processes at the basin scale. Continuous hydrologic simula- tions, as well as continuous simulations of soil and streambed erosion processes, are per- formed in two neighbouring basins in northeastern Greece: Kosynthos river basin (district of Xanthi, Thrace, northeastern Greece) and Nestos river basin (Macedonia-Thrace border, northeastern Greece). Both basins are mountainous and covered by forested and bushy areas in their greatest part. Kosynthos river basin extends to an area of 237 km2, whilst Nestos river basin is quite bigger, covering an area of approximately 840 km2. The charac- teristic of Nestos river basin is the presence of a dam at its northwestern boundary, which largely affects the discharge, as well as the sediment transport in Nestos River. The applica- tion of the model results in continuous hydrographs and sediment graphs at the outlets of the two basins. Fine temporal scales are used, providing this way a continuous assessment of water and sediment discharge. The statistic efficiency criteria utilized for the comparison between computed and measured values of water and sediment discharge at the basin out- let provide satisfactory results. Therefore, it is concluded that the continuous hydro-geo- morphologic modelling can be successfully applied to Kosynthos and Nestos river basins.

Objectives of IST are: • To encourage research, development, and use of Renewable Energy Sources (RES). • To collect and disseminate information in the area of RES utilization through conferences, seminars and publications. • To establish international connections and to encourage the transfer of knowledge in the area of RES. • To elaborate suggestions and energy policy alternatives aiming to promote the diffusion, utilization and development of RES. In promoting the above objectives, IST has already organized ten National Conferences on Renewable Energy Sources (in years 1982, 1985, 1988, 1992, 1996, 1999, 2002, 2006, 2009 and 2014), where the majority of Greek scientists active in all fields of renewable energies and energy conservation have participated, while more than 1000 scientific papers were presented. The proceedings of the conferences present the state of research and work done in Greece in the field of Renewable Energy Sources and its development during the last two and a half decades.

  • Strategies of Remembering In
    GREECE UNDER ROME (100 BC - 100 AD) GREECE UNDER IN REMEMBERING OF STRATEGIES STRATEGIES OF REMEMBERING IN GREECE UNDER ROME (100 BC - 100 AD) At the beginning of the first century BC Athens was an independent city bound to Rome through a friendship alliance. By the end of the first century AD the city had been incorporated into the Roman province of Achaea. Along with Athenian independence perished the notion of Greek self-rule. The rest of Achaea was ruled by the governor of Macedonia already since 146 BC, but the numerous defections of Greek cities during the first century BC show that Roman rule was not yet viewed as inevitable. In spite of the definitive loss of self-rule this was not a period of decline. Attica and the Peloponnese were special regions because of their legacy as cultural and religious centres of the Mediterranean. Supported by this legacy communities and individuals engaged actively with the increasing presence of Roman rule and its representatives. The archaeological and epigraphic records attest to the continued economic vitality of the region: buildings, statues, and lavish tombs were still being constructed. There is hence need to counterbalance the traditional discourses of weakness on Roman Greece, and to highlight how acts of remembering were employed as resources in this complex political situation. The legacy of Greece defined Greek and Roman responses to the changing relationship. Both parties looked to the past in shaping their interactions, but how this was done varied widely. Sulla fashioned himself after the tyrant-slayers Harmodius and Aristogeiton, while Athenian ephebes evoked the sea-battles of the Persian Wars to fashion their valour.
