Simpozij o biologiji slatkih voda Zagreb, 15th Feb 2019 3rd Symposium of Freshwater Biology Preface A handful of enthusiastic biologists established Croatian Association of Freshwater Ecologists in February 2014 and since then we are working on inter-institutional cooperation in Croatia and abroad. We soon organized the First Symposium of Freshwater Biology, which was held in Zagreb on February 15th, 2015 in order to present current information on freshwater ecosystems in Croatia and beyond, and gather students, scientists, experts and enthusiasts all in one place to communicate and collaborate. Since the First Symposium proved to be very successful and interesting, we decided to continue with the symposiums every two years. Our Second Symposium of Freshwater Biology was held in Zagreb on February 17th 2017. The Second Symposium was even more successful with more than 100 participants. Our Third Symposium of Freshwater Biology is set for February 15th, 2019. All our three symposiums were organized in cooperation with the Department of Biology, Faculty of Science, University of Zagreb. We are happy that this event brings together a large number of biologists of all ages, including biology students that present their own research under the supervision of their mentors. In this publication, which includes all abstracts presented during the symposium, you will see a diverse and interesting current expert and scientific topics associated with all aspects of freshwater biology. We hope that you will find some new ideas, challenges, opportunities for cooperation, gaining new colleagues and friends, or at least get enthusiasm for future work, so you could actively engage into research, education and protection of freshwater ecosystems. We thank all the participants who have recognized our original idea, and made this event possible. See you in year 2021.

Croatian Waters Main Flood Protection Centre Head of Main Centre ∗ Climate change has intensified in recent years worldwide, including Croatia ∗ Extremely dry and wet periods have been alternating frequently in the last approximately 15 years ∗ Damage from extreme hydrological events is increasing ∗ “Average” or “normal” years are becoming increasingly rarer ∗ The frequency of high water waves and extreme water levels including floods is increasing ∗ There are almost no longer any rules concerning the occurrence of high water waves ∗ Forecasting climate models indicate increasingly frequent extreme climate events, both globally and locally ∗ Only in the last 15 years or so, the major part of the Croatian territory has experienced frequent extreme hydrological events which caused droughts in the years 2000, 2003, 2011 and 2012, but also floods in the years 2002, 2004, 2005, 2006, 2009, 2010, 2012, 2013, 2014 and 2015 ∗ Heavy damage is recorded, primarily in agriculture, but settlements, infrastructure and industrial facilities are also at risk ∗ Still, unlike in many other countries, major fatalities and disastrous damage in the urban areas have been avoided in Croatia ∗ Floods are natural phenomena which cannot be completely prevented.

In Croatian watercourses, three members of the genus Barbus are found, B. balcanicus, B. barbus and B. plebejus, each occupying a specific ecological niche. This study examined cytochrome b (cyt b), a common genetic marker used to describe the structure and origin of fish populations to perform a phylogenetic reconstruction of the Danube barbel. Two methods of phylogenetic inference were used: maximum parsimony (MP) and maximum likelihood (ML), which yielded well supported trees of similar topology. The Median joining network (MJ) was generated and corroborated to show the divergence of three lineages of Barbus balcanicus on the Balkan Peninsula: Croatian, Serbian and Macedonian lineages that separated at the beginning of the Pleistocene.

To minimize negative effects and maximize positive effects, it is necessary to provide comprehensive analyses beyond the strictly technical domain. In this study, we apply a methodology for determining priorities in implementing irrigation plans using multi-criteria analysis methods on a specific case study area in the sub-catchment area of the Orljava River in Požega–Slavonia County, Croatia. Five potential irrigation areas (Orljava–Londža, Pleternica, Ovˇcare, Treštanovci, and Venje–Hrnjevac) were analyzed according to five selected criteria: environmental protection, water-related (four sub-criteria), social, economic, and time criteria with different criteria importance (weight). The aim of this study was to confirm the adequacy of using six multi-criteria analysis (MCA) methods (mostly used: PROMETHEE, AHP, ELECTRE TRI, and the less used: DEXi, PRIME, and PCA) in determining priorities for fulfilling irrigation plans, present models for preparation of the input data, apply certain methods, and compare the results on the selected case study area. The methods’ adequacy was confirmed during the research.
