Contribution of the hydromorphological - geological and climatological parameters to the watershed typology, application in basins of Northern Greece

Abstract

This research was initiated by the implementation of the Water Framework Directive 2000/60 (WFD) in Greece for the typology of abiotic parameters in relation to the ecological quality of surface water.Significant questions came in the attempt to use the results and data of previous research, due to the lack of a specific framework for the spatial-temporal distribution and continuity of data for the study of hydromorphological, geological and climate parameters. A key part of the research is to define this framework. The watersheds of North Greece were studied and their corresponding geological maps of scale 1:500.000 and 1:50.000 were digitised. The hydrographic network of 14 study areas was digitised using topographic maps of scale 1:50.000 and by ArcMap 10.3 with DEM. Sampling took place, in a three year period, at 9 reference stations and 5 highly altered sites. Chemical analysis of water samples and sedimentological-mineralogical analysis of sediment took place. The precipitation a ...
