摘要
Kalymnos is one of the largest islands of the Dodecanese complex, with high development potential. Fresh water availability has declined the last few years, due to increase in population and in per capita water demand. As a result, the already stressed groundwater resources have been overexploited and salinization of many aquifers has already taken place. Since water import from other areas is not a sustainable solution, optimization of the management of local water resources is necessary. This paper deals with the water balance of Kalymnos. The hydrologic basin of Vathy, which is one of the largest of the island, is presented in more detail.
