The stable isotope content of hydrogen (2H/1H), carbon (13C/12C), nitrogen (15N/14N), and oxygen (18O/16O) in surface water (the Sava river and channels) and groundwater (Ranney wells) were determined in Belgrade (Serbia) during July 2008. Detailed evaporation calculation has estimated that fraction of water loss to be between 10 and 20% in the channels using the local meteoric water line and the local evaporation line. Carbon-13 content in dissolved inorganic carbon is distinguished between surface water and groundwater indicating different evolution pathways of carbon. Based on carbon and nitrogen isotopic composition and C/N ratios, sources of inorganic carbon and of organic matter in analyzed waters are discussed.
