DAC PROGRAMME FOR TORRENT ESTUARIES (March 2000-April 2001)
The Kouklia Community Council participates in the DAC programme of the Ministry of Public Works and Environment -Greece Consequences from the shortage and management of water resources in torrent estuaries an island environment"

The target of the program was the comprehension and knowledge of the torrent estuariessystems, through the development and pilot application of a biotic and geomorphologic characteristics observation programme. A part of the northern Paphos coast, about 20 kilometres long, was chosen as an area of interest, in which four torrents end up: the river Ezousas, the river Xeros, the Diarizos and Ha-Potami.

Main results of the programme

o Installation of a bio observation system in connexion with the geomorphologic parameter observation system which enables the creation of a reference system for future ground measuring and, consequently, it is henceforth possible to observe the evolution in time of the river estuaries ecosystem.
o Development of a biotic and non biotic parameter data bank on a digital disc for easy use which concentrates all the existing information and can be used as a basis for further studies, but also as a source of information for the better comprehension of the torrent estuariessystem.
o Sensitisation of the local society to the site of the river mouths, which is part of everyday life but is simultaneously so unknown.
