Maritsa: Difference between revisions

This causes significant economic damage (loss of agricultural production and damage to infrastructure), which is estimated at several hundreds million Euro.<ref name=nivol>[http://www.wseas.us/e-library/conferences/2012/Sliema/NACGURES/NACGURES-01.pdf Environmental management of big riverine floods: the case of Evros River in Greece], Z.
