#ExploreICOS: Heraklion, Greece

Imagine a city's emissions visualised, mapped, and analysed to pinpoint areas for improvement. In the Greek city Heraklion at the island of Crete, this is a reality. Here, the ICOS station researchers are creating a detailed map of the city’s urban footprint. This "emission mapping" is a crucial tool for developing and implementing effective strategies to reduce the city's environmental impact and create a more sustainable urban environment. Read the full article here about the ICOS ecosystem stations HECKOR and HECMAS located in Heraklion: https://www.icos-cp.eu/news-and-event... ICOS has a range of greenhouse gas measurement stations all across Europe. The stations are often located in extreme and beautiful places, high up on mountain tops or out at sea. #ExploreICOS takes you to these stations through videos, photos and written stories.
