ΝΕΟ – Navarino Environmental Observatory

Funding: TEMES S.A.

Description: Navarino Environmental Observatory (NEO) is dedicated to research and education on the climate and the environment of the Mediterranean region. The educational programs are closely linked to the research carried out in the region. Covering a wide range of topics of both local and global relevance, the research activities of NEO are carried out by scientists from the Bert Bolin Centre for Climate Research at Stockholm University and the Atmospheric Environment Division of Biomedical Research at the Academy of Athens. Within its activities, atmospheric composition and meteorological parameters are continuously monitored in order to track the origin of particulate and gaseous pollutants and detect climate change signals. Global and regional scale modeling is applied for climate projections and future pollution level simulations. Located at Costa Navarino, NEO is fast becoming a dynamic hub where scientists from all over the world conduct frontline research, develop new tools and methods, as well as meet to exchange knowledge and ideas.
