(На англ. / Качество вод реки Алиакмон в Козани, Греция: результаты мониторинга).
ABSTRACT This report is the first contribution directly related to variations of the physical-chemical parameters over a period of nine months of Aliaknon river in West Macedonia Greece. In order to evaluate the water quality the Water Quality Index was used. The real time control data collected from environmental management studies of the Aliakmon River require presented important information in the calculation of the water quality index. By considering its physical-chemical and bacteriological composition at this point in time, it is possible to make important political decisions related to environmental legislation, by using the water quality index and to evaluate actions relevant to the regulation of human activities. Information is presented on water quality variations of the Aliakmon for temperature, turbidity, pH, BOD, PO4, TP, NO3, at three monitoring points in Kozani Greece.
