Transboundary groundwater bodies - basis for shared resource management
2006
Djuric, D. (Institut za vodoprivredu Jaroslav Cerni, Beograd (Serbia)), E-mail: dusan.djuric@cerni.co.yu
The EU Water Framework Directive imposes special requirements for transboudary groundwater bodies, and thereby emphasizes their significance. The management of a common resource calls for an integrated approach to monitoring and status assessment, as well as implementation of improvement measures. Serbia, Hungary and Romania share a water body in the Pannonian Basin, for which cooperation has already been established within the framework of the ICPDR and at the bilateral level.

Man-made lakes cause direct and indirect changes in environmental conditions downstream of the water reservoir. Management must consider these water quality and environmental effects as well as uses of the river below the water reservoir.

2005
Prohaska, S.(Rudarsko-geoloski fakultet, Beograd (Serbia and Montenegro))
A new concept for the determination of reference low flows of natural watercourses - the guaranteed minimum - has recently been introduced into the water management practice. Appreciating the significance underlying the definition of low flows in all segments of water management (municipal and industrial water supply, wastewater discharge, irrigation, navigation, hydropower, water protection, etc.), the author believes that all aspects of the problem must duly be considered, examined and identified. The doubts and issues raised by the guaranteed minimum concept in the domain of random-probabilistic phenomena, such as river discharge, are discussed in the paper.
