The results include the concentrations as well as the temporal and spatial distributions of nitrates, nitrites, phosphates, ammonia and dissolved organic carbon for a period of twelve months (October 2002 to September 2003). Monthly samplings took place in four sampling sites at the rivers Acheloos and Louros and two at the river Acherontas. The samples were analyzed by standard spectrophometrical methods. According to our measurements, Louros is the most polluted river as it concerns nitrogen compounds, probably due to the increased human activities in its catchment area. It also occasionally accepts pollutants from the small stream of Vossa. Although Acheloos is the biggest and most important river for the whole territory, it seems not to be heavily polluted. The chemical parameters level, indicates the enrichment of its water in nutrients, from the water of Lisimahia lake that enters the river through the water lock of Dimikos. No significant inflow of pollutants was observed in river Acherontas, since no remarkable spatial variation recorded.</p></abstract><publication_date><month>04</month><day>29</day><year>2013</year></publication_date><pages><first_page>147</first_page><last_page>156</last_page></pages><publisher_item><identifier id_type="pii">281</identifier></publisher_item><doi_data><doi>10.30955/gnj.000281</doi><timestamp>1713479680</timestamp><resource>https://journal.gnest.org/publication/281</resource></doi_data></journal_article></journal></body></doi_batch> </div>
