Summary

The Mediterranean temporary ponds (MTPs) are “priority habitats for conservation” (Natura code:3170*), according to the Habitat Directive of the European Union (92/43/EC) and they areconsidered as ecological ornaments of the environment. They possess peculiar hydroperiods thatprovide habitat to many rare and endangered species. The geochemical conditions that prevail inMTPs, create an unique environment, for each one, of high geochemical value, which has not beenstudied up to now in Greece. The objective of this work is the study of hydrology and geochemistryof a characteristic MTP at Omalos plateau.
