Title Abstract Case study(ies)
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
Restoration of the archeological and the broader landscape of Olympia Project report Water retention management in the broader area of Ancient Olympia, Elia, Greece
Bosco Limite Land use change of a maize-cutivated area, with the costitution of a lowland forest of 25000 square meters. The aim is to create an ecological corridor for the neighboring Nature 2000 Area, with wetlands. Moreover, Bosco Limite is a sperimental project for the groundwater recharge. Reforestation in Veneto, Italy
Progetto "Il bosco Limite di Camazzole" Project description Reforestation in Veneto, Italy
Phone interview Phone interview aimed at getting a better understanding of (i) the overall project context; and (ii) the PES schemes established as part of the project. Reforestation in Veneto, Italy
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
