Mediterranean islands are widely recognized as biodiversity hotspots, with a long history of human activities shaping multi-functional landscapes. Socioeconomic and environmental factors are among the most important factors driving the creation of diverse landscapes, with a high supply of ecosystem services (ES). However, these factors, along with climate change, could also have irreversible consequences on local ecosystems. Thus, this study aimed to reveal the importance of socio-ecological factors in shaping ES bundles to manage natural resources efficiently and enhance human well-being. Using the Ionian Islands as a case study, we explored the relationships among multiple ES, including their supply and demand indicators. We identified bundles of ES to distinguish regions in which supply and demand exhibit different characteristics. An ensemble machine learning method (Random Forest - RF) was used to identify the most important socio-ecological variables out of 17 tested that contribute to ES bundles. Our results produced five bundles of ES supply and six bundles of ES demand. The most important variables for the distribution of ES supply bundles were landscape heterogeneity, elevation, slope, landscape connectivity, and population. In comparison, variables representing elevation, slope, and population were among the most important variables contributing to ES demand bundles. RF exhibited both good classification and predictability, which was supported by the accuracy measures. Our findings demonstrated that research on ES should account for underlying socio-ecological drivers that influence the supply and demand of ES to improve our understanding of the possible impacts of future management decisions regarding the diverse Mediterranean landscapes of the Ionian Islands.

To manage multiple ecosystem services (ES) effectively, it is essential to understand how the dynamics of ES maintain healthy ecosystems to avoid potential negative impacts on human well-being in the context of sustainable development. In particular, the Ionian Islands in the central Mediterranean are characterized by high natural, ecological, and recreational value; however, the intensification of human activities over time has resulted in the loss of natural ecosystems, which might have negatively impacted ES. Here, we aimed to assess and understand the spatiotemporal dynamics of ES supply and how these components interact across the Ionian Islands to optimize future ES provision and mitigate current trade-offs. We quantified multiple ecosystem services and analyzed their interactions at a temporal scale across the four prefectures of the Ionian Islands. Seven ES were quantified covering all three ES sections (provisioning, regulating and maintenance, and cultural) of the Common International Classification of Ecosystem Services (CICES). ES interactions were investigated by analyzing ES relationships, identifying ES bundles (sets of ES that repeatedly occur together across space and time), and specifying ES occurrence within bundles. The three ES groups exhibited similar patterns on some islands, but differed on islands with areas of high recreation in parallel to low provisioning and regulating ES. Temporal variations showed both stability and changes to the supply of ES, as well as in the interactions among them. Different patterns among the islands were caused by the degree of mixing between natural vegetation and olive orchards. This study identified seven ES bundles that had distinct compositions and magnitudes, with both unique and common bundles being found among the islands. The olive grove bundle delivered the most ES, while the non-vegetated bundle delivered negligible amounts of ES. Spatial and temporal variation in ES appear to be determined by agriculture, land abandonment, and increasing tourism, as well as the occurrence of fires. Knowledge about the spatial dynamics and interactions among ES could provide information for stakeholders and decision-making processes to develop appropriate sustainable management of the ecosystems on the Ionian Islands to secure ecological, social, and economic resilience.

The use of satellite data has been widely applied to provide a cost-effective mean to analyse land cover changes over large geographic regions. The aim of this study was the multi-temporal change analysis of vegetation over the last 30 years, using freely available remote sensing data in three steps in Ilia Prefecture, Greece. In the first step, four vegetation indices were adopted to analyse the dynamic change of vegetation. At the second step, the investigation of the vegetation density changes was succeeded through thematic change detection techniques, and lastly, at the third step, a comprehensive change detection method (CCDM) was applied for mapping biomass progress/regress. Finally, after the catastrophic mega-fire of 2007 in Ilia, a change analysis of four vegetation indices focused on this affected region was implemented to investigate the vegetation restoration. Although some spatial changes of vegetation cover were observed during the study period, the state of biomass either improved or remained constant through time, demonstrating the high potential of Mediterranean ecosystems to recover after disturbance events.

Ozone concentrations of indoor air were measured in dwellings in three areas of Greece, namely Athens, Salamina Island and Zakynthos Island. The measurements were conducted as a function of the following four parameters: the time during the day, the time period that the openings of a dwelling (windows, doors) remained closed, the degree of urbanization and the floor of the dwelling. The statistical analysis of the data showed that there was a strong dependence of the indoor ozone levels on the first three of the above mentioned parameters while this was not the case for the floor of the dwelling. The indoor versus outdoor ozone levels (I/O ratios) were calculated and their dependence on the same four experimental parameters was also examined.
