Sampling campaign in the Sperchios River catchment

The HCMR group conducted two sampling campaigns in surface waters and groundwaters of the Sperchios River catchment in January 2025. The campaigns involved the collection of samples for the analysis of stable isotope ratios of water (18O/16O, 2H/1H) and nitrate (15N/14N, 18O/16O). In addition, a rain collector was installed to enable rainwater sampling within the […]

Publication: Water dynamics and evaporation losses to inflows into transboundary Mediterranean lakes – the case of Prespa Lakes

A survey on the application of stable isotope techniques (δ18Ο, δ2Η of H2O) in the transboundary Prespa Lakes (Great and Little Prespa) to assess the water dynamics and the evolution of evaporation losses over the past several decades was published in Hydrological Sciences Journal (IF 2.8 (2023)). The publication can be found here.Read More »
