Bais Alkiviadis Dr. Alkiviadis Bais was born in 1957 in Ioannina, Greece, graduated from the Physics Department of the Aristotle University of Thessaloniki (AUTH) in 1981 and received his PhD in 1985. He is currently Professor and head of the Laboratory of Atmospheric Physics (LAP) in the Physics Department of AUTH. Since 1987 he is giving courses in various topics related to Atmospheric Physics in the undergraduate program of the Physics Department of AUTH and since 1993 in the Graduate Program of Environmental Physics of AUTH. Since 2002 he is the director of this graduate program. He is involved in scientific research for more than 25 years. His research activities are focused on UV radiation and ozone research, global change and environmental physics. He took part in most of the major UV-related European experimental campaigns, and is actively involved in quality control of solar UV spectral and broadband measurements, as well as on technological advancements of spectral UV measurements conducted by the spectroradiometers of LAP. He is member of the Instrumentation workgroup of the WMO UV Scientific Advisory Group, and participated in the preparation of international scientific assessments, either as co-author or as lead author (WMO ozone assessment 2006). He was coordinator of the EC funded projects SUSPEN and QASUME, activity leader in the integrated SCOUT-O3 and principal investigator in the EC funded projects SUVDAMA, EDUCE and ADMIRA, and in several national projects. In addition he has been actively involved as researcher in many other international and national projects. He has published about 120 peer reviewed papers, and more than about 100 presentations in international conferences. These papers have received more than 1200 citations from other authors. email:abais@auth.gr download |

Koukouli MariLiza She was born in Thessaloniki in 1977. She graduated from the Department of Physics & Astronomy, University College London, London, with a combined Bachelors and Basters degree (M.Sci.) in Physics in 1999. During her doctorate studies, in the Department of Atmospheric, Oceanic and Planetary Physics of the University of Oxford, she analysed remote sensing satellite measurements of the atmosphere of Venus. After she acquired her doctoral degree in early 2003, she moved to the Institute of Astrophysics of Andalucia in Granada, Spain where she worked as a post-doctoral researcher analysing remote sensing measurements from the Envisat/ESA satellite. From January 2005, she was incorporated as a post-doctoral researcher in the Laboratory of Atmospheric Physics of the Aristotle University of Thessaloniki where she focuses on the study of atmospheric aerosol concentration and composition over Northern Greece resulting from the treatment and analysis of satellite data. email:mariliza@auth.gr |

Zebila Melina I was born in Thessaloniki in 29/01/1982. In 1999, via the precursory examination system, I was accepted as a student to the Physics department of A.U.Th., from which I graduated in 2003. During the years 2003-2005 I attended the master of Atmospheric Physics, of the same department. Since November 2005, Ι have been assigned with the Ph.D. disquisition: The climatology of the Sun Ultraviolet Radiation at the region of East Mediterranean. email:mzempila@auth.gr |
