Some aspects of the effects of lindane to the nutrition of Serranus scriba in the sea water
1999
Kovacevic, A. (Institut za biologiju mora, Kotor (Yugoslavia))
The experiment was performed on marine Teleost Serranus scriba with lower concentrations of lindane then MPC (due to our valid law). The aim of this study was to find the effects of lindane to fish activities connected with nutrition. This motive is among the strongest. It includes parameters as: number of fish movements in the presence of prey or without it and the number of onslaughts to the prey during one hour. The results have shown that the increasing of lindane concentration caused considerable decreasing and even complete cessation of activity. Interest for prey and decreasing activity of predators in the presence of prey (typical for Serranus - as a fish of prey and the hunter) endures till the moment of convulsion.

Nikic, Z. (Sumarski fakultet, Beograd (Yugoslavia)) | Cubrilovic, P. (Geozavod, Beograd (Yugoslavia))
In this paper we have pointed out the hydrogeological condition in the catchment area of the Jablanica river in the south Serbia (Yugoslavia). The two units are separately presented here. The first one is mountainous part of the catchment area upstream of the gaging station of Lebane and the second one is the part of the terrain in the plain down stream to the river mounth near Pecenjevac. The hydrogeological characteristics of the two mentioned regions are given to explain the reasons of existing the constant flow of the Jablanica to Lebane and its disappearing course in the period of recession in the plain downstream. The quality of water in the Jablanica river at Lebane is good. Down stream of this gaging station the waste water collector flows into the river. In the part of recession period the ratio between them is unfavourable. We have also discussed the quality of water at the gaging station of Pecenjevac and pointed out the function of sandy-gravel deposits in the process of natural purification of the Jablanica flow.

1999
Stojadinovic, S. (Poljoprivredni fakultet, Novi Sad (Yugoslavia)) | Kilibarda, P. | Nikolic, Lj. | Lazic, D.
In this paper there were given research results obtained during many years of investigation of hydrophytes of the Tisza river, Serbia (Yugoslavia), and their bioindicating values. The plant world of the Tisza river is characterized by floristical diversity, with three characteristics band: band of submerged, band of floating and band of emerged hydrophytes. Among submerged plants these are distinguished by abundance, covering values and occurrence degree: Ceratophyllum demersum, Elodea canadaensis, Potamogeton crispus, Potamogeton perfoliatus and Potamogeton pectinatus. In the floating band species of the fam. Lemnaceae: Lemna minor, Lemna gibba, Spirodela polyrrhiza and Potamogeton fluitans are most frequent. In the closest coastal band, these species are most frequent: Typha angustifolia, Typha latifolia, Phragmites communis, Sagittaria sagittifolia and Typhoides arundinacea. On the basis of determined floristical composition and bioindicating values there can be noticed the organic pollution increasing trend.

1999
Stankovic, S. (Univerzitet u Beogradu, Beograd (Yugoslavia). Tehnolosko-metalurski fakultet) | Nikolic, R. | Rajkovic, M. | Vucurovic, B.
In this investigation the applied method for lead determination in traces, from 10E-6 - 10E-10 mol/cubic dm, was Potentiometric Stripping Analysis (PSA). The main attribute of this method is possibility to detect very low metal concentrations. The investigation results of level concentration of lead into the top, natural and atmospheric water from some towns of Serbia (Yugoslavia), including city of Belgrade, are given. The investigation was carried out in some towns of Serbia (Yugoslavia), including city of Belgrade, during the 1994-1995.

2003
Regner, D. | Vuksanovic, N. | Stjepcevic, B. | Joksimovic, D. (Institut za biologiju mora, Kotor (Serbia and Montenegro))
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.

2003
Velkova-Jordanoska, L. (JNU Hidrobioloski zavod, Ohrid (The Former Yugoslav Republic of Macedonia))
This report presents investigation performed as a part of a wider study desined to examine the level of pollution effects on fish in Ohrid lake (The Former Yugoslav Republic of Macedonia). Faunal investigation of the fish Barbus meridionalis petenyi Heck. were carried out at the five localities in Ohrid lake. Microscope analysis of histological preparation of barbel hepatic tissue displayed a dominant presence of granulomatous inflammation on a level of hepatocelular parenchyme and cholangiofibrosis on a level of hepatic bile duck. The analysis did not exhibit any correlation between the granulomatous inflammation and the manifestation of the cholangiofibrous alterations.

2003
Lokoska, L. (Hidrobioloski zavod, Ohrid (The Former Yugoslav Republic of Macedonia))
During 2001, water from river Cerava and from the littoral where the river flow into lake Ohrid, were examined. Bacteriological analysis included ecological and sanitary aspekt of water state. Heterotrophic, proteolytic, amylolytic and phosphomineralizing bacteria, most probable number of total coliforms (MPN) and presence of Escherichia coli and Clostridium perfringens were determined. The results of investigations shows organic and faecal pollution and permanent negative anthropogenic effects.

2003
Ivancev-Tumbas, I. (Prirodno-matematicki fakultet, Novi Sad (Serbia and Montenegro). Institut za hemiju) | Dalmacija, B. | Becelic, M. | Karlovic, E. | Tamas, Z. | Pesic, V. | Agbaba, J. | Jovanovic, D.
The work is concerned with the study of groundwater quality in respect of hydrocarbons content, carried out on several sites on the territory of the Oil Refinery Novi Sad (Serbia, Serbia&Montenegro). In the course of four year that elapsed since the time spillage of crude and oil derivatives and deposition of burning products on the Refinery soil (April-June 1999) the processes of passive in situ bioremediation have been taking place on the contaminated area. By comparing the results for three contamination zones in a circle of 270 m from the site at which the spillage occurred, a certain increase in content of mineral oil was observed in deeper water-bearing layers at a distance of 200 and 270 m from the spillage site. A content of BTEX components the "movement" of the pollution was observed from the close zone 1 via the farther zone 2 to the farthest zone 3, which indicates that the intensity of bioremediation and all physico-chemical processes in general, taking place on the pollution site, is not sufficient to prevent pollution spreading. The assumption that the zone in question in probably a limiting zone is based on the results of the fourth sampling campaign, in which BTEX components were not detected on any of the locations of the zones 2 and 3.

2003
Jovanovic, D. (Fakultet zastite na radu, Nis (Serbia and Montenegro)) | Pavlovic, D. (JKP za vodovod i kanalizaciju "Naissus", Nis (Serbia and Montenegro))
There have been given research results of quantitative and qualitative indices of communal and industrial waste waters of Nis. The research was carried out by the Institute "Jaroslav Cerni" (group of authors) and JKP "Naissus" (4) with the goal of defining as reliable parameters as possible in order to draw up plans for a central wastewater cleansing plant in Nis, as well as several necessary treatments of the industrial waste waters. There have been presented quantities, load and expected load of the total waste water, basic characteristics of urban and natural recipient, waste water influence on the river Nisava and needed degree of cleansing.

Vasiljevic, M. (Institut za zastitu zdravlja Srbije "Dr Milan Jovanovic Batut", Beograd (Serbia and Montenegro)) | Maljevic, E. | Karadzic, V. | Vasiljevic, V. | Nikic, Z.
According to the plans, the town of Gacko tends to be water supplied from the water reservoir Vrba located at the river Vrba. About 150 to 200 m away is located ash basin. All ash basin area is oriented to the water reservoir and leaking water going directly to the water reservoir. The leaking water has high pH value, alkalinity, high content of sodium, potassium and sulphates. There are some heavy metals, but their concentrations are not significant. The influence of those contaminated water on the lake water quality is only little evident because of the high dilution rate.
