In this publication the data are presented by area and in each area the statistics is, as far as possible, arranged according to the DPSIR-model. 1.1DPSIR Model The DPSIR model Driving forces Respons Activities indirectly What is done to reduce cuasing environmental the problems, problems, e.g. energy-use, e.g. protection av land transportation and industrial areas, legislation, taxes, production public transport Pressure Impact Origin of the problem Consequences of e.g. Emissions from changes in the industries and transports environment och generation of waste e.g. number of cancer cases, loss of biodiversity, economic damage State State of the natural environment e.g. air quality, acidification and eutrofication of water and soil The DPSIR model is an extension of the PSR (Pressure, State, Response) model adopted by the OECDs State of the Environment (SoE) group and by European Environment Agency (EEA), being also used by EUROSTAT for the organisation of the environmental statistics. 5 Facts on the Environment This analytical framework permits to organise the information and to integrate socio-economic and ecological elements by dressing relationships between five indicator categories: Driving forces (e.g., agricultural practices, industrial production, technology) are determining Pressures (e.g., toxic emissions, CO2 emissions), that are subsequently degrading the State of the environment (e.g., the concentration of mercury in forest soils, the global mean temperature), these Impacts (e.g., forest acidification, endocrine disrupting effects on mammals) imposing Responses of the society (e.g., legislative measures, taxes, research programmes). D Driving force indicators are not very responsive ("elastic"): the monitored phenomena, e.g. road traffic, are driven by powerful economic forces, and therefore it can hardly be expected that these trends will change drastically in future. For example, politicians cannot seriously suggest to abolish private cars, if they want to stay in office. However, Driving force indicators are useful to: a) calculate a variety of pressure indicators, e.g. by multiplying the mileage of cars with specific coefficients like "average CO 2 per car and km"; b) help decision-makers to plan actions ("responses") needed to avoid future problems ("pressures"), for example the capacity of roads; c) serve as a basis for scenario development and long-term planning. P Pressure indicators point directly at the causes of problems. One specific feature of pressure indicators is that they should be responsive, that is, a decision-maker has indeed a chance to reduce the indicator (and thus the problem) by launching appropriate actions. They will also serve as an incentive for rational solutions, since they demonstrate the effectiveness of political action early enough to hold responsible those who launched the action. S State indicators, in contrast, are often too slow. For example, a state indicator showing the acidity of forest soils points back to the NO x and SO 2 emissions of the last ten years; the politically responsible persons may have retired in the meantime.

The use of polluted water has a direct impact on human health and cause long-term consequences. The longest and most polluted river in Kosovo is the Sitnica, a 90 km long river with its source located near the village of Sazli. The river flows into the Ibar River in Northern Kosovo. Agriculture is prevailing activity in the basin of Sitnica which is why agricultural as well as industrial waste are the biggest water pollutants. The purpose of this study was to evaluate water quality of the river and analyse the pollution level along the Sitnica River caused by agricultural activities and industrial discharges. In order to assess the impact of pollutants on this river, a measurements were carried out in four (five) monitoring stations: the first station represents the reference station which has not undergone or has not been affected by polluting pressures, two stations in water areas affected by the irrigation of farming land and two monitoring stations in water areas affected by industrial wastewater discharge. Some of the parameters of water quality analysed are temperature, turbidity, electrical conductivity, pH, DO, COD, BOD, P total, nitrates, sulfates, and heavy metals iron, manganese, zinc, nickel.

(2018). TEORETICAL APPROACH CONCERNING THE DEVELOPMENT OF SUSTAINABLE TOURISM AS TOURIST DESTINATION IN KOSOVO. GeoJournal of Tourism and Geosites, 22(2), 489–496. https://doi.org/10.30892/gtg.22218-305 Abtract: Tourism is an economic activity or a set of co-ordinated activities aimed at meeting the needs of individuals related to leisure and movement of people. Tourism has a great potential and plays an important role in meeting the main objectives related to, employment, sustainable economic and social development. Kosovo's tourism economy is dominated by small and medium-sized economic operators, while large economic operators are still in the process of privatization, and therefore it is required to find a favorable sectorial strategy that in the long term will ensure the sustainability of tour operators, offering a diversified tourist product. The findings of this study give special importance to institutional challenges that require identification of responsibilities and coordination of all actors involved in the tourism planning and development process. The surveyed tourism region offers critical reviews on how to assist tourism planners to improve their methods in community-based tourism planning and development, while pointing to directions for future research into tourist regions.

Abstract – Phytosociological characteristics of grassland communities above serpentines (order Halacsyetalia sendtneri H. Ritter-Studni~ka 1970) in Serbia, are analyzed accord- ing to Braun-Blanquet methodology. In order to detect the basic floristic differentiation of analyzed communities ordinary correspondence analysis was applied. Cluster analysis was also performed to see the structure and separation of the communities based on the floristic composition. In order to determine diagnostic species, fidelity indices with presence/ absence data and the size of all groups standardized to equal size were calculated. The new association Stipetum novakii is described in open rocky serpentine grasslands in Brdjani Gorge. Key words: Stipetum, serpentine, ordination, fidelity, Serbia Introduction Serpentine (ophiolithic, ultramafic) rocks represent a group of siliceous rocks which are characterized by calcium deficiency, high concentrations of aluminium, iron, magnesium, nickel, cobalt and chromium, and a few plant nutrients. In contrast to other acid siliceous rocks, the pH values of the serpentine substrate vary from basic to ultrabasic (pH 5.5–8).
