It is intended the build up of three automated measurement stations for continuous measurement of water quantity and quality parameters on the rivers Danube and Tisza: water level, temperature, pH, dissolved oxygen, conductivity, turbidity, ammonium ion concentration, nitrates concentration and chlorophyll a. The purpose of continuous measurement was to demonstrate the variability in time and space of the aquatic processes, as well as remote transfer of data to the centre. The large fluctuations of the data from discrete measurements illustrated the importance of continuous measurements for the complete description and modelling of the biological processes in the river.

Since the water from the intergranular aquifer of Cemovsko Polje (Montenegro) represents an invaluable drinking water reserve, which can also be used for irrigation, the check up of the aquifer revealed that it is being infiltrated by pollutants from somewhere within the catchment area. The results have shown that the mentioned water from the intergranular aquifer (T3 and T4) is influenced by the agricultural activities in the area, leakage from the uncontrolled landfill of Podgorica, depending on the hydrological conditions, and, to a smaller degree, by the quality of the surface waterflows, with which it is connected.

A monitoring program was organized with the aim of assessing the quality of sediment and water in Nadela canal regarding metal content (Cr, Cd, Cu, Ni, Pb, Zn, Hg). Water was the 1st/2nd class according to national requirements. The Canadian probable effect guideline value for sediment quality is occasionally or constantly exceeded for different metals. Mercury and zinc contents are in elevated concentrations and nickel shows a tendency for accumulation. The results obtained give a preliminary overview of watercourse imperilment.

Water wells are among the oldest hydraulic engineering structures in the world. Today, hundreds of water wells service water supply systems in Serbia, and groundwaters are widely used for public water supply. Extensive practical engineering experience in water well operation has identified a number of problems which affect well service life and capacity (i.e. reduce specific yield). Some of the encountered problems are, also, a result of microbial activity in groundwater. Products of life processes of groundwater specific microbial community cause biocorrosion, blockage, closure, plugging, deposition, and biofouling of well screens and collectors. We applied BART biodetectors as a reliable tool in monitoring well rehabilitation effectiveness. This paper presents several process assessments based on BART biodetector tests conducted at Belgrade groundwater source.
