Macrobenthic molluscs from a marine - lagoonal environmental transition in Lesvos Island (Greece)

BACKGROUND This paper describes an occurence dataset, also including numerical abundance and biomass data, pertaining to the macrobenthic molluscan assemblages from a marine - lagoonal environmental transition. The study system was the soft-substrate benthoscape of the area of the Kalloni solar saltworks (Lesvos Island, Greece). Specifically, the study area extended from the infralittoral zone ...

Epidemiology of First Epileptic Seizures in the Northern Aegean Island of Lesvos, Greece

We aimed at establishing the epidemiologic profile of first epileptic seizures (FES) in the Greek island of Lesvos.

The mapping of hydrothermal alteration zones on the island of Lesvos, Greece using an integrated remote sensing dataset

The mapping of hydrothermal alteration zones associated with epithermal gold deposits on the island of Lesvos in Greece has been carried out using Landsat Thematic Mapper (TM) satellite and ground remote sensing data. The initial analysis of the satellite data using the minimum noise fraction, matched filter and spectral unmixing techniques identified the altered rock outcrops clearly. The iden...
