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.

The results of the examination point out on heterogenity of the phytoplankton community. The presence of 212 taxa has been noted. In the way of quality the green algae are dominant. In all the aspects of the quantitative analysis the domination of Bacillariophyta has been noted, first of all the centric forms. The amount of nutrients on the locality of border with Hungary is considerable, thus during low water and high temperature, the intensive algae development is usual.

Aspiration to multipurpose use of built drainage systems structure in Vojvodina, total length about 20,000 km, must be followed by detailed investigation of influence of water stream through detailed canal network (DCN) from water source to the final consumer. Typical cases of two purpose use of DCN is supply canal of drainage / irrigation system on region Middle Banat, Zrenjanin, characterized by taking water from Begej river and long stream to the final consumer. Influence of long stream through DCN to water quality change are investigated on mentioned localities during 2004. Obtained results are pointed out water quality decrease in these conditions. Decrease is expressive in case of smaller flow. This paper deals with estimation of water suitability for irrigation taking into consideration possible undersirable effects of this water to irrigated soil.

The river Crnojevica is a subject of lasting manny years physicochemical and microbiological investigations, which show worring pollutants presence into the water current. This work represent preliminary investigations of Crnojevica river water algal flora (phytoplankton and phytoperiphyton), carrying out over summer period of 2004. Aim of the investigation was to point, based on algal analysis, as reliable indicators of water quality and ecological status of an aquatorius, the need to protect the river from permanent communal and industrial waste water pollution. The hyperproduction of phytoplankton in the investigation period was stated, but it varys along the current, in accordance with efluent inflow. On the base of saprobiological analysis of phytoplankton, determinated water quality was in class 2, till the worse was noted at T2 measure place, on the inflow place of Rijeka Crnojevica settlements sewage.

Redudance rivers are basic hydrographic problem in area of Radjevina. Their appearance to associate for most rivers in the confluence of Likorda river and have character of season. Using method of quantity index the rivers of this region are classified in special hydrological classes. On the basis of this typology the possible models for solution of this problem are given.

Eutrophication is one of the main problems of water deterioration in accumulation lakes. Phosphorus is considered as the key factor for eutrophication of lacustrine water. Its concentration in lakes originates from external input and the emission from the sediment. It was necessary to determine the substrates of phosphorus by sequential extraction in order to determine the dynamics and bioavailability of phosphorus. On the basis of results obtained the proposals for the preparation of land were made in order to minimise the input of phosphorus.

Some physiological groups of bacteria can be good indicators of the oil pollution of the environment. Oil contamination represents a special problem because of their persistence and possibility of reaching drinking water supply sources. The destruction of the Novi Sad Oil Refinery in the hinterland of water supply source Ratno Ostrvo has endangered drinking water supply of the city of Novi Sad. As an acceptable protection measure appeared the solution with the hydraulic barrier located along the east side of the Refinery, bordering with the water supply source. Physiological groups of bacteria relevant to oil contamination (hydrocarbon-oxidizing and lipolytic bacteria) were detected in the waters of the barrier wells. The appearance and population of this microflora in the water of these wells were more pronounced compared with the waters of a control piezometer in the hinterland of the water supply source.

There are presented the results of investigations carried out in the Kotor Bay (Adriatic Sea), Montenegro (Serbia and Montenegro) during the winter months of 2004. The highest value of microphytoplankton as a greater size-fraction of phytoplankton is found in the surface layer during March (1.4 x 10**7 cells/cubic dm). The main edificator was diatomic species Skeletonema costatum with relative percentage about 100%. Obtained results point out that Kotor Bay belongs to the highest eutrophic or extreme eutrophic area. Similar result is found in the same period twenty years ago.
