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.

Water samples for chemical and microbiological analyses as well as material of the water community to be considered in the assessment of qualitative and quantitative composition of phyto- and zooplankton, and bottom fauna were take on 30 May 2001 at two profiles. Judging by the most of the analyzed chemical parameters, with the exception of BOD5 and oxygen saturation values indicating class 2, water of the Bovan lake accumulation belongs to the 1st class of water quality. According to the presence of heterotrophic bacteria, water was characterized as class 1-2 (after Kohl). Also, 6 groups of phyto- and 4 groups of zooplankton were recorded. Relative abundance and qualitative composition values of plankton show that saprobic index ranged from 1.54 to 1.98 pointing out oligo-beta, namely beta-mesosaprobic character of the accumulation. Saprobic index when oligochaetes were considered amounted up to 3.6 (alfa-mesosaprobic water).

Thermal waters represent an unused natural potential of Serbia. A possible way of utilizing this resource is to carry out the initiative that has been underway over the past several years to use certain thermal waters for the rearing of some allochthnous thermophilic fish species, the most famous among them being the group Tilapia (fam. Cichlidae), authochthonous in Africa and Asia. The analysis of basic physico-chemical properties of the Ovcar Banja (Ovcar Spa) thermal waters (the bed of the Zapadna Morava river, Western Serbia) indicates the possibility of their utilization for this purpose.

In this paper, there were discussed the results of ecological investigation of the Montenerin part of the Adriatic sea during the period 1996-2003. Evaluation of the sea-water quality was done in the coastal sea. The importance of multiannual ecological investigations was emphasized, too.

In the last few years, in Montenegro there were positive movements into fulfilling the principles of sustainable marine fishery, primarily throught introducing the Law on Marine Fishing and its rules. Institure of Marine Biology in Kotor, Montenegro, in cooperations with the Ministry for Agriculture, Forestry and Water Management of the Republic of Montenegro, works on undertaking of the measures that may ensure optimal regulation of fishing. These measures were based on scientific research, particularly on the estimates of parameters of population dynamics, biomass and maximum biologically sustainable utilization of economically important species on Montenegrin coast.

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.

In this paper, we used similarity index, such as Sorensen similarity index (S), Jaccard similarity index (Cj) and Percentage Similarity Index (PSC), to show similarities and contrasts within the qualitative structure of zooplankton of various bays within Boka Kotorska. This kind of statistical overview was made for Boka Kotorska Bay for the first time, so we believe that it is a valuable contribution to recent studies on zooplankton. Tables show the results for each index individually, as well as the smallest and greatest similarity among the bays. We also presented the number of recorded species in the Boka Kotorska Bay arranged by months for three different years.

The 1st South-Eastern European Interlaboratory Study: WATER ANALYSIS - 2003 was organized by International Scientific Committee on the basis of international European and regional experiences. The total of 38 laboratories took part in WATER-ANALYSIS 2003. Three laboratories were from Greece, two from the Republic of Srpska (Bosnia and Herzegovina), eight from Romania and all others from Serbia and Montenegro. Two samples were prepared from water of the river Danube and the task for participants was to determine trace elements: Al, As, Cd, Cu, Mn, Fe, Pb, and Zn. Results of determination of arsenic (As) and aluminium (Al) are presented in this paper.

Organic matter of various composition is present in soils and sediments ranging from simple compounds to the very complex proteins, etc. Within the pollutant analysis in soils and sediments the total organic carbon (TOC) content is determined. In addition to this form carbon may be present as elemental or inorganic ones. TOS identification and quantitation methods may be qualitative or quantitative with prior sample preparation. It is recommended catalytic combustion of samples at high temperatures with Pt catalyst and IR detection of evolved CO2.

Problematics of humic substances removal from surface water with low mineralization and temperature near zero was presented. In this analysis very large spectar of solutions especially for this area was included. More detailed data obtained with this patent solution (7) in laboratory conditions on purificaton of raw water are presented in the analysis. Comparing the new technology with existing purification state and many unsuccessful attempts to obtain the standards gives the possibility of choosing the best drinking water treatment solution for plant on mountain Kopaonik. General estimation of different methods that can give necessary water purification level was done. Technoeconomic and ecological analysis of different water purification methods was realised and the a rational solution with high effects on protection of the environment was given.
