      Carbon sequestration via enhanced weathering of peridotites and basalts in seawater 

      Rigopoulos, I.; Harrison, A. L.; Delimitis, A.; Ioannou, I.; Efstathiou, A. M.; Kyratsi, Theodora; Oelkers, E. H. (2018)
      Enhanced weathering of mafic and ultramafic rocks has been suggested as a carbon sequestration strategy for the mitigation of climate change. This study was designed to assess the potential drawdown of CO2 directly from ...

      Climate change impacts on sea surface temperature in the eastern mediterranean, levantine basin 

      Samuel-Rhoads, Y.; Zodiatis, George; Nikolaidis, A.; Hayes, D.; Georgiou, Georgios C.; Konnaris, G.; Nikolaides, Marios (2013)
      Increases in sea surface temperatures (SSTs) have been recorded to occur globally, with the Mediterranean SSTs rising about twice as much as those of the global oceans. Here we analyse and compare satellite remote sensing ...

      Effect of ball milling on the carbon sequestration efficiency of serpentinized peridotites 

      Rigopoulos, I.; Delimitis, A.; Ioannou, I.; Efstathiou, A. M.; Kyratsi, Theodora (2018)
      Mineral carbonation has been suggested as a safe carbon capture and storage (CCS) strategy for the mitigation of climate change. This study investigates the effect of ball milling on the CO2 sequestration capacity of ...

      The Extraterritorial Reach of EU Environmental Law and Access to Justice by Third Country Actors 

      Hadjiyianni, Ioanna (European Papers, 2017)
      The EU conducts its external relations through different types of tools, including through unilateral domestic measures with extraterritorial implications that extend its regulatory power to processes occurring partly ...

      Heat related mortality in Cyprus under the A1B emissions scenario: Is additional air-conditioning an appropriate mitigation strategy? 

      Kouis, Panayiotis; Yiallouros, Panayiotis K.; Zachariades, T.; Papatheodorou, S. I. (Affiliation: Cyprus International Institute for Environmental and Public Health, Cyprus University of Technology, Limassol, Cyprus; Affiliation: Department of Environmental Science, Cyprus University of Technology, Limassol, Cyprus, 2016)
      While climate change is expected to increase average temperatures around the globe as well as the number of atypically hot days and nights, several studies had identified an increase in heat-related mortality during hot ...
