Within the comprehensive hydrobiological investigation of Grosnica water reservoir (Serbia, Yugoslavia) composition and dynamics of bacterioplankton, phytoplankton and zooplankton, as well as their seasonal successions were studied. The composition of plankton communities varies during the vegetation period in the function of the physicochemical features. Grosnica water reservoir with its microbial features belongs to the 1st-2nd class of bonity according to Kohl. The highest values pf bacterio- and zooplankton were recorded in August, while bruto primary production in September.

In this paper the short review of the results of calculation of the coincidence between the water level and quality parameters at the gauging station Cuprija-rail bridge (Serbia, Yugoslavia) is presented. The basic principles of the applied method and criteria for the estimation of the statistic significance of coincidence indicators are given. At the end of the analyses and comments of the obtained results, as well as the possibility for application of this methodology are given. The paper gives numerical quantities of the estimated indicators of statistical significance of the coincidence of water level and quality parameters of groundwater. Also, the graphical illustration, which shows the common exceeding probabilities of the water level and quality parameters, is presented.

Amplified and accelerated eutrophication process is a characteritic of a whole variety of small and medium-sized water-bodies, such as channel systems, microreservoirs, ponds, lakes and bank regions of many even bigger ecosystems. During the process, in relatively short period of time, the upper capacity limit of a certain biotop is far too exceeded, which leads to reduced ability of ecosystem's autopurification. As a consequence of such degradation, ecosystem faces a serious discrepancy between members of a biocenosis e.g. in ration producers/consumers/decomposers, which, in the end, causes destruction, e.g. dystrophy of the hydroecosystem. The introduction of diverse fish communities, can, therefore, be one of the basic measures for enabling a sustainable trophic stability, in a sense of keeping a dynamic balance. This measure includes carefully planed fish community - it should consist of three basic components of a trophic food web (planktivore and macrophytovore, bentivore and carnivore). Apart from enabling certain biodiversity considering particular fish species (both quantitative and qualitative), care must be inevitably taken of age structure, as well as fish stock and fishing dynamic, concerning the number, quantity and age.

Results on sea - water quality control and level of pollution in the coastal Southern Adriatic (Montenegro, Yugoslavia) were discussed from data collected in 1997. Investigations from Boka Kotorska Bay, coastal sea up to Bojana river mouth and in front of Bojana river mouth were presented separately. For above mentioned areas, basic hydrographic parameters, as well as the level of bacterial contamination were examined throughout the year (1996/1997 period). In Kotor Bay, which is the shallowest and exposed to the strongest land - based sources, as in the Tivat Bay, some changes influenced by anthropogenic eutrophication were already found.

Using the then years data series of organic load (COD, BOD), ammonia and organic nitrogen, total phosphorus, detergents and oxygen dissolved, a heavy pollution of Bega Canal at the Romanian - Yugoslav Border ("Srpski Itebej" Control Station) is illustrated. High load of organic matters and nutrients as well as extremely low oxygen dissolved content created anaerobic conditions in aquatic environment, are the main characteristics of Bega Canal state at the analyzed location. As the Bega Canal (left tributary of Tisza river) is an international river, a transboundary issue of pollution is considered in this paper.

In this work influence of different concentrations of linear active substance (LAS-DBS) on activity of Serranus scriba CUV have been studied. Desynchronization of circadian rhythms is in direct correlation with LAS growing concentrations. The high disproportion was found between maximum permitted concentrations (3 mg/l) and our results which show the changes in fish behaviour at 0.2 mg/l LAS.

In previous works numerous specific changes of water composition in the Danube backwater effects Iron Gate 1 reservoir (Yugoslavia), have been initiated. By studies of conditions of generation and composition of sediments, the models denying importance of assumption on sedimentological features of deposited materials foreseen by the project, have been established, as it was confirmed with more details by newer investigations. The new data on the character of sediments coincide in all elements with changes of water composition, which was formerly presented, thus the knowledges of these phenomena being in that way more important. The data on composition of the deposited material, the macro and micro-composition are of great importance to perceive the influence of new sediments to the quality of surface and groundwater, especially of the sources for water supply, then in a long term for the sudden high risk processes corresponding to a chemical time bomb. Data have confirmed validity of the model of intensified deposition of allochthonous material with plankton and influence of this phenomenon to the processes trough the downstream section.

In this paper, we are consider processing of soils erosion and his way on protection expoitation of water for population water supply, melioration's systems for irrigation and for strew of manger of the Lim river with the tug and suspend bank (Montenegro, Yugoslavia). We are given suggestions for protective utilization of agricultural and forest lands and the possibilities of water exploitation from Bistrica river (Montenegro, Yugoslavia). That is useful for fishing, irrigation, energetic, tourism and water supply. In this paper, you can meet some suggestions about exploitations of minerals and organic fertilizars that are not toxics and they not any influence on pollution of land and water.

During the 1994-1995, seasonal investigations of the fountainhead and spring region of the river Susica, near Uzice in West Serbia (Yugoslavia) were carried out. The bottom fauna composition, termic properties of air and water as well as chemical parameters were also determined. By the study of bottom composition 26 taxa were determined. The most uniform fauna was found in the Susica fountainhead while its diversity was increasing farther downstream the spring region.

During the period from 11th May, 1991 to 5th March, 1994, seasonal study of the river Jablanica (Serbia, Yugoslavia) macrozoobenthos was carried out. Investigations were done of three sectors: in the upper, middle and down reach of the river, with the aim to estimate water quality changes by the changes in bottom fauna composition. Bottom fauna community was composed of 17 invertebrate groups with 100 taxa determined. The most diverse Oligochaeta (21 taxa) and Ephemeroptera (19 taxa). Macroinvertebrates diversity decreased downstream the river as a result of the pollutional degree increase. Saprobic indices were from 1.51 (sector 2) to 1.8 (sector 3).
