 Report on the possible removal of Greek Ramsar sites from the Montreux Record, 1999
During the summer months, the flow of rivers Axios and Aliakmon is reduced greatly both due to natural conditions (reduced or no rainfall and intensive evaporation) and the use of water for irrigation.
In 1995, in co-operation with EKBY and the School of Agriculture of Aristotle University of Thessaloniki, a study was carried out entitled "Method for the improvement of the irrigation efficiency of the irrigation networks of Axios and its importance for the natural wetland areas of the Delta" (Dimitriadis 1995).
As for the pollution of the three rivers: Aliakmon is polluted to a lesser extent.

 The Aliakmon (H.W. Tang, 9 Feb 1999)
Prof Birks argue that the logic of this argument is the logic of technicality because while the defendant may not be technically enriched, he is factually enriched by the possession of the property and the fact that the defendant has the immediate spending power and disposal.
From Prof Tettenborn's analysis (which I tend to agree), demonstrate, I the buyer cannot sue the rogue that has taken my property because the enrichment was not at my expense but at the expense of the seller.
I would argue that this is because the enrichment while factually may be argued to be at my expense is not so legally due to the fact that I do not have title to the goods.

The products of this degradation, which are sediment materials, are transferred through the hydrographic system network and part of them reaches the river exit in the plains, while another part remains in the mountain beds in the form of within-basin depositions.
For the quantitative estimation of Aliakmon river basin degradation a new model was used.
The stochastic model of Gavrilovic served as a starting point, which was further extended by initiating appropriate adjustments through the use of the G.I.S. In the case of the Aliakmon river basin, the average annual degradation has been calculated with a remarkably high precision.

 The Macedonian-Greek conflict
It is also very important to note, that southernmost river in Macedonia which many ethnographers consider to be Macedonia's border with Greece, is labeled on this map with the native Macedonian name Wistritza (Bistrica).
However, Greek maps that date after the partition of Macedonia, have changed this name with the Greek Aliakmon.
Another examples on wiping off the native Macedonian names from this map, would also be the second largest city in Aegean Macedonia, Serres which Greece changed to Serrai later, the river Mesta which was changed to Nestos, or the lake Beschik which today appears as Volvi.
