The numerical model GRAD invest d.o.o., Split of stratified flow is described, and its application in the analysis of the Neretva River [email protected] salination via the first direction of intrusion is presented. The model is calibrated based on measurements conducted in 2004. It was established that saline water appears in Metković at fresh water flow rates of less than 180 m3/s, while saline water is fully blocked out from the riverbed when water flow exceeds 500 m3/s.

Prezimena U Župi Svetoga Stjepana
Domagoj Vidović PREZIMENA U ŽUPI SVETOGA STJEPANA 1. UVOD Iako se dva naselja na području današnje opuzenske župe u povijesnim vrelima spominju razmjerno rano (Brštanik na području današnje Podgradine 1253. i Posrednica na području današnjega Opuzena 1333.), o stanov- ništvu koje ih je napučivalo znamo veoma malo i to posredno, iz dokumenata koji se uglavnom tiču susjednoga Slivna. U XIII. stoljeću uglavnom su zapisana samo osobna imena tadašnjih Neretvana, npr. Druga (Drugha), Bogdana, Premila (Premilla), kći Staneke (Stanecha), Dragoslav (Dragoslaus) itd. Koncem XIII. stoljeća uz osobno se ime pojavljujuju i pridjevci (svojevrsna praprezimena), spominju se tako Slivanjci Bogdan Čeprnjić (Bogdanus Ceperniç), Berislav Umnenović (Berrisclauus Vmennouich) i Vladimir Grupšin (Vladimirus de Grupsa), a u Du- brovniku se u XIV. stoljeću spominju stanovnici Brštanika Petar Ostojić (Petrus Hostoich) i Bratoš Lupković (Bra- tos Lupcouich) te stanovnik Slivna (de Slievni) Radin Butković (Radin Butcouich). Kao stanovnici Slivna spominju se u XV. stoljeću izvjesni Veselko, Vukosav Novaković i Ostojica Pribisaljić (D. Vidović 2012: 133–134), a nakon dolaska Osmanlija zapisi su osobnih imena tadašnjih Neretvana još rjeđi, a razvoj je imenske formule zaustavljen do početka vođenja matičnih knjiga u Zaostrogu u XVII. stoljeću. Kad je riječ o užemu području same župe Opuzen, razvidno je da su nepogodno podneblje i položaj na ratnoj vjetrometini odradili da se ondje nije razvilo znatnije naselje tijekom osmanlijske okupacije. Trgovina je robljem, solju i drvnom građom u Opuzenu i Slivno znatno smanjena nakon što su se iz Neretvanske krajine povukli Du- brovčani, a višestoljetni uskočki upadi (isprva su se uskocima u napadima pridruživali i Neretvani koji su pred Osmanlijama prebjegli na Pelješac) dodatno su rijedili stanovništvo. -

Ottoman History of South-East Europe by Markus Koller
Ottoman History of South-East Europe by Markus Koller The era of Ottoman Rule, which began in the fourteenth century, is among the most controversial chapters of South-East European history. Over several stages of conquest, some of them several decades long, large parts of South-Eastern Europe were incorporated into the Ottoman Empire, or brought under its dominion. While the Ottomans had to surrender the territories north of the Danube and the Sava after the Peace Treaty of 1699, the decline of Ot- toman domination began only in the nineteenth century. Structures of imperial power which had been implemented in varying forms and intensity in different regions were replaced by emerging nation states in the nineteenth century. The development of national identities which accompanied this transformation was greatly determined by the new states distancing themselves from Ottoman rule, and consequently the image of "Turkish rule" has been a mainly negative one until the present. However, latest historical research has shown an increasingly differentiated image of this era of South-East European history. TABLE OF CONTENTS 1. Military and Political Developments 2.
