A FEKETE-KÖRÖS ERDEINEK VíZPÓTLÁSA ÉS 15 ÉVES ÖKOLÓGIAI EREDMÉNYEI | Restoration of floodplain watercourse network to provide surface water supply to the forest from backwater of flood waves on the river Körös. During the execution of the job there came into being a 38.8 km long water-flow and a free water surface of 15.7 hectares. The work touched a forest area of more than 400 hectares with a direct positive ecological impact. During the execution of the system we were able to renovate partially a forest area damaged more than about 150 years ago. | Habitat Reconstruction in the forests of the Körös Valley, Hungary |
Post-fire water retention management : The case study of Ancient Olympia, Greece | The retention measures include the temporary installation of structures utilizing locally available timber in order to increase water retention and prevent soil erosion and flood events. | Water retention management in the broader area of Ancient Olympia, Elia, Greece |

Approval for environmental terms for implementation of forest hydroeconomy works in mountainous areas in part of the river basin of Xiropotamos | The retention measures include afforastation and planting as well as construction of small scale dams to decrease the stream gradient in order to decrease soil erosion and flood events. | Increasing water retention through afforestation, landscaping and reducing the stream gradient in Xiropotamos River Basin, Greece |
Pollutant Removal Efficiencies and Flow Detention of Infiltration Trenches |
The study is carried out by flow weighted sampling at the inlet and outlet of one infiltration trench in Kungsbacka south of Gothenburg, located under the parking lot of a supermarket. The observations and sampling were conducted during April to June 2012 and the results from five storm events were analyzed. | Infiltration trenches in Kungsbacka, Sweden |
