Industrial uses of carbonate rocks from Thassos island (Greece)

Outbreak investigation of brucellosis in Thassos, Greece, 2008.

In spring 2008, the Hellenic Center for Disease Control and Prevention was notified about human brucellosis cases in Thassos, a Greek island that had been up to that point under a brucellosis eradication programme. Following the verification of the outbreak a 1:1 case– control study was conducted in the island. The study revealed that consumption of locally produced raw cheese was a risk factor...

Characterization of Bitumen Bearing Carbonate Rocks

Several countries, including Canada, contain sizeable bitumen resources in highly fractured carbonate rocks. Any possible recovery of bitumen from these reservoirs will be highly dependent on proper understanding of the rock and fluid properties and how they vary in the reservoir. These carbonates are extremely heterogeneous, and as a result proper reservoir characterization is challenging. In ...

Application of Data Mining Techniques to Olea Europaea var. Media Oblonga Production from Thassos Island

A huge amount of data is produced in our days in the agriculture sector. Due to the huge amount of this datasets it is necessary to use data mining techniques in order to comprehend the data and extract useful information. In our work we apply three different data mining techniques to data about Olea europaea var. media oblonga from the island of Thassos, at the northern part of Greece. The dat...
