This volume provides essential information on the origin and evolution of Greek rivers, along with their ecological and anthropogenic characteristics. It covers geomythology, biogeography, hydrology, hydrobiology, hydrogeochemistry, geological and biogeochemical processes, anthropogenic pressures, ecological impacts, water management in antiquity and today, and river restoration. The book is structured into four parts. The first part emphasizes the significance of rivers for ancient Greek civilization and the natural processes influencing their evolution during the Holocene. The second part highlights the hydrological, hydrochemical, and biological features of Greek rivers, focusing on the unique biogeographical characteristics that contribute to their high biodiversity and endemism. The third part discusses the impacts of environmental pollution on the structure and function of Greek river ecosystems. The final part examines current socio-economic factors affecting water management practices in Greece, the application of ecohydrological approaches to restore fragmented rivers, and lessons learned from restoring aquatic ecosystems. This comprehensive coverage makes the book an invaluable resource for researchers, students, and environmental managers.
