SUMMARY OF NATURAL VALUES The area inscribed on the World Heritage List in 1979 as Plitvice Lakes National Park (PLNP) covered 19,462ha. In 1997, the area of the National Park was extended by the Croatian Parliament to 29,482ha. The Croatian authorities have now proposed that the World Heritage site be extended to include this enlargement of the park by 10,020ha. PLNP is situated in the karst area of Croatia. It consists of a series of lakes in the valley of the Bijela rijeka (White River) and Crna rijeka (Black River), which join to become the Korana River, which flows into the River Kupa and eventually into the River Sava. The lakes are formed by barriers of travertine (or tufa) across the valley which create deep highly oligotrophic lakes.

Nat. Croat. Vol. 28, No. 1., 99-106, Zagreb, 2019. Results of a malacological survey of the Mrežnica River are presented. The molluscan assemblages of this river between the boundary of the Eugen Kvarternik military area and the inflow to the Korana River near Karlovac were studied from 2013 to 2018. Altogether 29 aquatic molluscs (19 gastropods, 10 bivalves) were found at 9 sites. Theodoxus danubialis, Esperiana esperi, Microcolpia daudebartii and Holandriana holandrii were dominant at most of the sites. The molluscan assemblages were very similar to assemblages documented during previous research into the Korana River. The populations of the endangered bivalves Unio crassus and Pseudanodonta complanata were recorded. An extensive population of another endangered gastropod Anisus vorticulus was found at one site. Physa acuta is the only non-native species confirmed in the Mrežnica River.

  • Review of Research on Plitvice Lakes, Croatia in the Fields of Meteorology, Climatology, Hydrology, Hydrogeochemistry and Physical Limnology
    GEOFIZIKA VOL. 35 2018 DOI: 10.15233/gfz.2018.35.9 Review paper Review of research on Plitvice Lakes, Croatia in the fields of meteorology, climatology, hydrology, hydrogeochemistry and physical limnology Zvjezdana Bencetić Klaić 1, Josip Rubinić 2 and Sanja Kapelj 3 1 Department of Geophysics, Faculty of Science, University of Zagreb 2 Faculty of Civil Engineering, University of Rijeka 3 Faculty of Geotehnical Engineering, University of Zagreb Received 16 April 2018, in final form 22 October 2018 In lakes, several physical, chemical, and biological processes occur simulta- neously, and these processes are interconnected. Therefore, the investigation of lakes requires a multidisciplinary approach that includes physics (including the physics of the atmosphere, i.e., meteorology), chemistry, geology, hydrogeology, hydrology and biology. Each of these disciplines addresses a lake from a different point of view. However, lake studies that primarily belong to one field, at least to some extent, report their findings in ways that are associated with other fields; this type of reporting is caused by the inherent interconnections between phe- nomena from different disciplines. Plitvice Lakes, Croatia, are composed of a unique cascading chain of karst lakes, and these lakes have been investigated by numerous authors. Here, we provide an overview of the studies of the Plitvice Lakes Area (PLA) that address meteorology, climatology, hydrology, hydrogeo- chemistry and physical limnology. Our aim is to synthesize the results from each of these disciplines and make them available to scientists from other related disciplines; thus, this review will facilitate further investigations of the PLA within the natural sciences. In addition, valuable results from early investiga- tions of Plitvice Lakes are generally unavailable to the broader scientific com- munity, and are written in Croatian.

The list comprised field investigations, articles, grey literature, and unpublished data. Twenty-nine species of macroinvertebrates have been recorded since 1942, with a domination of the Ponto-Caspian faunistic elements. The majority of recorded species have broad distribution and are naturalized in the waters of Serbia, while occasional or single findings of seven taxa indicate that these species have failed to form populations. Presented results clearly show that the Danube is the main corridor for the introduction and spread of non-native species into Serbia. Keywords: Serbia; inland waters; allochthonous species; introduction 1. Introduction The Water Framework Directive (WFD) [1] represents key regulation and one of the most important documents in the European Union water legislation since it was adopted in 2000.

E-mail: [email protected] Abstract: The bio-chemical and physical characteristics of a river are directly affected by water temperature, which therefore affects the overall health of aquatic ecosystems. In this study, long term variations of river water temperatures (RWT) in Kupa River watershed, Croatia were investigated. It is shown that the RWT in the studied river stations in- creased about 0.0232–0.0796ºC per year, which are comparable with long term observations reported for rivers in other regions, indicating an apparent warming trend. RWT rises during the past 20 years have not been constant for different periods of the year, and the contrasts between stations regarding RWT increases vary seasonally. Additionally, multi- layer perceptron neural network models (MLPNN) and adaptive neuro-fuzzy inference systems (ANFIS) models were implemented to simulate daily RWT, using air temperature (Ta), flow discharge (Q) and the day of year (DOY) as predic- tors.
