Weht eine Brise, „fängt“ sie sich am Windturm, weht den Schacht hinab und strömt in den Raum darunter. Die dort befindliche warme Luft steigt wegen der Kaminwirkung im entgegengesetzten Schacht nach oben. So werden auch Räume ohne Fenster temperiert.

In Cyprus, marine fish farming has grown rapidly in the past decade and is concentrated in the west side of Vasiliko Bay. The east coast of this bay has ports, a power station, a desalination unit, a cement factory, a major new oil terminal, and gas storage facilities. The bay is earmarked to create the largest hydrocarbon processing, storing, and transport facility in the region. Here, we assess the status of Posidonia oceanica habitat in an understudied region at the upper thermal, and eastern limit, of this Mediterranean endemic seagrass. An extensive ancient seagrass meadow was revealed, covering about 200 ha across 10 km of coastline, over soft substrata at ca 10–30 m depth, and over hard substrata at ca 0–6 m depth.
