Testing performed by five glass cups has been a try to show form and extent of water reservoir soil base influence on its water quality. At the some time a possibility of alleviation of eutrophication by means of certain safety precautions have been examined. During the test performed on a model of parameters (water temperature, air temperature, O2, chlorophyll a, total nitrogen, etc) have been monitored. The results of actions reffer to a fact a soil base influences deterioration of water quality, especially immediately after water reservoir filling, but the mentioned negative influence of the soil base could be decreased applying certain safety precautions.

During the 1981-1996 period, qualitative and quantitative structure of oligachaeta communities as indicator of the eutrophication process was investigated in the lake Palic (the 2nd oxidation lake), Serbia (Yugoslavia). The mean annual number of oligochaetes was related to nutrient concentration (total nitrogen and total phosphorus). The analysed data for both oligochaete community and nutrients, leads to the conclusion that the second oxidation lake Palic can be classified as an highly eutrophic environment, with tendency towards dystrophic, particularly in past two years.

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.

During complex studies of phytoplankton, the role of particular phytoplankton groups was examined, as one of important indicators of eutrophic processes in the Bay of Boka Kotorska (Adriatic sea, Montenegro (Yugoslavia)). Throughout summer 1999, investigations have been performed at representative locations (Kotor, Tivat and Hercegnovi bays) at the depths of 0, 5, 10 and 20 m. Maximal values of microphytoplankton were found in Kotor Bay in July (2.1 x 10**6 cells/cubic dm). In Tivat Bay, maximal values of microphytoplankton were found in June, although they were ten times lower (2.4 x 10**5 cells/cubic dm). In the Bay of Hercegnovi, mean values were lower, while maximal quantity of microphytoplankton was found in August (2.6 x 10**3 cells/cubic dm). In the Boka Kotorska Bay, the maximal percentage of 95% of the group Bacillariophyceae was found in the most productive surface layers at the depths of 0 and 5 m. The impact of eutrophication was the most visible in the Kotor Bay. It decreased towards the open sea. Diatoms populations (Bacillariophyceae) were dominant in the Bay, while the participations of other groups is insignificant. Consequently, it means that Bacillariophyceae are the most adapted group to the eutrophic conditions of the Boka Kotorska Bay.

The lake Provala near Vajska (Serbia, Yugoslavia) was created by the embankment performation during high Danube river levels in 1924. It is a very important water ecosystem of natural origin, which is a fact of great importance for exact biological and ecological research. Miljanovic (1996) and Pujin (1997) present the first lake Provala water state data. They emphasise the reinforced eutrophication process in the shore region. This paper presents the review of the macrophytes vegetation of the lake Provala recent state for the first time, with special attention to dominant plant species. Based on the present taxons analysis, as well as water chemical parameters analysed (NH4(+), NO3(-), NO2(-), PO4(3-), HPK, BPK, pH), it can be concluded that the eutrophication process is present in this water micro-reservoir. It is especially true for the shore region and shallow waters, where the process is already well under way and very fast. These research results can be used to efficiently protect this natural water ecosystem.

Important differences in the structure of fauna communities of their deepest parts of benthos were found in the investigation of several water reservoirs (Gruza, Grosnica, Barije, Bor, Vlasina and Medjuvrsje) on the territory of Serbia (Yugoslavia) lasting several years. The pronounced alterations of the structure are in the correlation to the pronounced degree of eutrofication was also established according to other indicators, above all according to the concentration of biogenic salts and the amount of organic substances. Characteristic group and taxa of the fauna of benthos which point to certain level of eutrophications were separated.

Oxygen aspect of water pollution of Skadar lake, Montenegro (Yugoslavia) is considered in this paper. Water analysis data in the period of 1991-1998 were used to establish relevant parameters, oxygen saturation (%O2), and five day biochemical demind (BPK5). Those data were supplied by Hydrometeorological Institute in Podgorica, Montenegro (Yugoslavia). Measurements were taken from three places in northern part of Skadar lake, where the increased water pollution is expected, and from southeastern part of the lake, out of source of pollution directly influence. According to results from this research, there is close relation between water pollution and oxygen water balance. Parts of the Skadar lake with low water circulation are especialy susceptible (place Kamenik). In the 1991-1995 period, this phenomena is manifested with variation depending of the chosen area and year. After some improvement of water quality in the 1996-1997 period, there is noticeable increase of water pollution in 1998 at all places. Supersaturation was identified by the percentage of O2 in Skadar lake area at whole.

Studies of phytoplankton in the Montenegrin coastal sea (Adriatic Sea), Montenegro (Yugoslavia), have been done in August and September 1998. Simultaneously, investigations were carried out in the area of Boka Kotorska Bay (Kotor and Tivat Bays) and outside the Bay, i.e. in the zone exposed to the influence of the open sea (Petrovac and Budva). It was found that the density of microphytoplankton is higher during summer, than in the autumn. So in the summer-period, as a consequence of stronger eutrophication process, mean-value of microphytoplankton density was 10**5 cells/cubic dm, and in autumn 4 x 10**4 cells/cubic dm. On the contrary, mean-value of nanophytoplankton density was higher in the autumn (5.2 x 10**6 cells/cubic dm) than in summer (3.5 x 10**5 cells/cubic dm), being a consequence of a decreasing eutrophication during colder period of the year. Having in mind the direct influence of the open sea outside the Bay, it is intelligible that population density of both phytoplankton size-fractions is lower along the Montenegrin coast, than in the Boka Kotorska Bay (Montenegro, Yugoslavia).

During the analyses of zooplankton and hydrography samples from continuous field research in monthly series during 2002 on three shallow stations (Orahovac, Morinj and near the Institute) and 4 central stations in Boka Kotorska Bay (Adriatic sea, Montenegro (Serbia&Montenegro)), exceptionally dense populations of Penilia avirostris were observed. Presence of this species in refreshed waters during the summer in other parts of Adriatic and Mediterranean, and its designation as an indicator, are reasons for presentation of these gathered results from yearly cycle in Boka Kotorska Bay.

In this paper, results of seasonal investigations throughout 2002, important for evaluation of the eutrophication and bacterial pollution of the Montenegrin coastal sea were presented. It was established that the difference between warmer and colder periods of the year was highest in the part of the Montenegrin coastal sea exposed to the strongest impact of the open waters of the Southern Adriatic.
