The Influence of Dam on Alkalization Processes of the Lower Tisa River THE INFLUENCE OF DAM ON ALKALIZATION PROCESSES OF THE LOWER TISA RIVER Nemes, K. 1, Matavuly, M. 1, Bugarski, R. 2, Lozanov-Crvenković, Z. 1, Belić, S. 3 1University of Novi Sad, The Faculty of Sciences1 2Hydrometeorological Service of the Republic of the Serbia 3Faculty of Agriculture, University of Novi Sad 21000 Novi Sad, Serbia [email protected] Abstract The changeability of plankton dynamics was represented in our study of the lower river Tisa (157 – 9.5 r km) with characteristic changes of water trophic degrees depending on hydrometeorological station and influence of seasonal river water supply over the old reconstructed Danube-Tisa-Danube canal network. Therefore, the selected parameters of alkalization processes such as phosphatase enzyme activities- PAI, sodium adsorption ration- SAR, abundance of bacterioplankton, phosphate and iron content were compared and interpreted by matrices analyses and categorized graphs. PAI and oligotrophic bacteria were found to positively influence on SAR at the impounded water stretch St Novi Becej. At the downstream stations, the association of PAI and suspended solids was considerable. The obtained results of SAR index was found to be in negative relation with the iron content in boundary stretch St Martonos while at the St Novi Becej neutral phosphatase enzyme activities were positively correlated with the iron content. Therefore, we estimate relation of the SAR, PAI and iron content. Our study revealed that abundance of oligotrophs and centric diatoms influence on alkalization processes in Serbian part of the Tisa River, and are suitable for investigation of Ecological potential of regulated water bodies. The occurrence of brackish water diatom Entomoneis paludosa and small centric algae Cyclotella meneghiniana pointed to considerable problems of detailed canal network usage supplied by the river Tisa. Keywords: PAI, SAR, Dam, alkalization processes, river Tisa, Serbia. INTRODUCTION Concerning drought and flood conditions in the past in agricultural Vojvodina province of the Republic of Serbia, the construction of the canal network begun in the XVII century and was finished in 1977 when the Novi Becej Dam was put into the operation on the lower river Tisa (Tisza, Tissa). This Dam, situated at the 63rd killometre, make possible gravitational release of water into the Banat region from the Tisa river for purposes of irrigation of 300 000 ha of land as well as other requirements (Vajda, in Milovanov, 1972). The dam has 7 water gates of 24.5 m each, and a waterlock. The river Tisa formes a reservoir above the dam where the main channel is only a fraction of the total water surface in Hungary too (Honti et al. 2008). In the assessment of ecological potential (Directive 2000/60/EC) of ecohydrographical regions (Brilly et al. 2006), by the characteristic type of changes of water trophic degrees and influence on water supply after the gate, comparisons were made between long-term cation measurement and plankton research at four sampling stations. The lower part of the Tisa River, from the Moris mouth to its mouth into the Danube is 178 km long, and its makes a border of the Banat Region on the Tisa left-hand bank. The segment of the River is characterized by an almost horizontal riverbed (total slope is only 6m), and it is about the peak of elevation 64 m. In this segment the Tisa receives the waters of its main Banat tributaries- the Zlatica, Old Begej, Navigable Begej and Great Backa canal (Munteanu, 1997). MATERIAL AND METHODS The heterotrophic plate count in the colony forming units of bacteria (CFU cm-3) was determined by means of cultivation on nutrient agar in the period of 5-7 days at a temperature of 22°C. The oligotrophs were counted on ten times diluted nutrient agar (Gajin et al. 1992). The phosphatase enzyme reaction took place at 30°C by the use of substrate p- nitrophenylphosphate (5% final concentration of reaction mixture; the concentration of p- nitrophenol) was determined by measurement of absorption at 420 nm (Flint & Hopton, (1976); pH of un-filtered water samples was adjusted for acid (pH 5), neutral (pH 7) and alkaline (pH 9) conditions of water and average values of phosphatase activities were described as PAI index by Matavulj (1986); PAI- (In Serbian: indeks fosfatazno-enzimske aktivnosti) was chosen as an indicative parameter in evaluation and description of ecological potential: good (0.10-2.30 µmol pNP s-1 dm-3), moderate (2.30 - 5.00 µmol pNP s-1 dm-3), poor (5.00-10.00 µmol pNP s-1 dm-3), and bad potential (>10.00 µmol pNP s-1 dm-3). Chlorophyll a and physico-chemical analyses and was determined by the use of standard methods (APHA, 1995; HYDROLOGICAL YEARBOOKS, 1981-1987; 1998-2006) and toxicity test in accordance with Teodorović, (2004). The SAR index (Sodium adsorption ratio) was calculated according to guidelines for interpretations of irrigation water quality SAR=+ Na/( Ca Mg )/2 (Ayers & Westcot, 1976). Miliequivalents were calculated from miligrams per liter (Belic et al. 1997; Dalmacija, 2002). All data were analyzed using categorized graphs and correlation matrices by the software Statistica 8 (2008). RESULTS AND DISCUSSION Following the results of research showed in categorized graphs and tables, the succession of parameters is interpreted (Figure 1-6; Table 1-5).

Year/Rok 2017 ISSN 1506-218X 17-35 Water Quality Trends of the Tisa River Along its Flow Through Serbia Jasmina Josimov Dundjerski, Radovan Savic, Jasna Grabic, Bosko Blagojevic University of Novi Sad, Serbia 1. Introduction The Tisa River is the longest tributary of the Danube River. It originates by joining two watercourses, the White and the Black Tisa. It is an international river which flows through Ukraine, Romania, Slo- vakia, Hungary and its lower part is in Serbia. A small part of its basin is located in Serbia, only about 6%. The total catchment area is 157220 km2, of which 24% is in mountainous region, 32% in hilly and 34% is in lowland (ICPDR 2016). Since the lowland part of Hungary has been often flooded, in the nineteenth century extensive river regulation works were performed reducing its length from 1419 km to 966 km. Af- ter accomplishing the works 589 km of riverbed remained cut off from the river and 136 km of new riverbed has been excavated (Pavic et al. 2009). However, even after a large number of cuts of accented river bends, the Tisa River still represents one of the most uniform meandering watercourses in the world (Czaya 1998). Since 1972 the lower part of the Tisa River is exposed to the effects of backwater from the dam Djerdap on the Danube and from 1977 the section upstream from Novi Becej is exposed to the effects of backwater from the dam near Novi Becej, built at 65 river-km.

  • Government Comments
    APPENDIX The following appendix does not form part of ECRI's analysis and proposals concerning the situation in Serbia ECRI wishes to point out that the analysis contained in its report on Serbia, is dated 14 December 2007, and that any subsequent development is not taken into account. In accordance with ECRI's country-by-country procedure, ECRI’s draft report on Serbia was subject to a confidential dialogue with the authorities of Serbia. A number of their comments were taken into account by ECRI, and integrated into the report. However, following this dialogue, the authorities of Serbia requested that the following viewpoints on their part be reproduced as an appendix to ECRI's report. “COMMENTS BY THE AUTHORITIES OF THE REPUBLIC OF SERBIA ON THE FIRST REPORT OF THE EUROPEAN COMMISSION AGAINST RACISM AND INTOLERANCE (ECRI) ON SERBIA The Republic of Serbia, being open for cooperation with numerous mechanisms on human rights established within the UN, OSCE and the Council of Europe welcomed the ECRI’s visit to Serbia in September 2007, tasked with making its first report on Serbia in accordance with its mandate. Through an open dialogue with the relevant Serbian authorities and other stakeholders, many issues regarding the need to properly address any forms of intolerance and racism were discussed, and many of those issues are reflected in the report. While welcoming the fact that through the confidential dialogue with ECRI some of the comments to the report made by the Serbian authorities were included in the final report, the Serbian authorities were of the opinion that additional comments and remarks provided by the Government would help to clarify certain issues and get an overall picture with regard to the issues covered in the report.

  • An Epidemiological Evaluation of Bovine Tuberculosis in South Backa Region of Vojvodina Province
    LUCRĂRI ŞTIINłIFICE MEDICINĂ VETERINARĂ VOL. XLI, 2008, TIMIŞOARA AN EPIDEMIOLOGICAL EVALUATION OF BOVINE TUBERCULOSIS IN SOUTH BACKA REGION OF VOJVODINA PROVINCE I. PUŠIĆ 1, SARA SAVIĆ-JEVðENIĆ 1, D. LALOŠEVIĆ 2, D. BUGARSKI 1, JASNA PRODANOV 1, Ž. GRGIĆ 1 1 Scientific Veterinary Institute »Novi Sad«, Serbia 2 Faculty of Veterinary Medicine, Novi Sad, Serbia Summary Bovine tuberculosis is one of the most complex animal health problems that the cattle farm operations in Serbia face today. In the South Backa region (SBR) we have registered three hotspots of bovine tuberculosis breakdown, in the municipality of Žabalj, Titel and Novi Sad. The first 11 infected cattle were detected during routine diagnostic testing in 2004 year. Another 113 were detected in 2006 and 54 in 2007 year. Although bovine tuberculosis is endemic in SBR, current breakdown is due to lack of diagnostic and control programs in the years that proceeded, illegal cattle movements and trading of unmarked infected cattle. The persistence of infection is mostly linked to the traditional extensive breeding system and free-ranging cattle. For ante mortem diagnosis of tuberculosis in cattle we used tuberculin skin tests and blood based gamma interferon test (γ-IFN). Post mortem, a detailed pathological examination and histopathology were undertaken, as well as acid-fast (AFB) bacillus smear examination for bacteriological diagnosis. This paper describes the current scheme, reviews some epidemiological and diagnostic work undertaken in support of the program and identifies problems considered to interfere with successful eradication of infection in this region. Key words: bovine tuberculosis , diagnosis, epidemiology, eradication Bovine tuberculosis (BTB) remains an important animal health concern for many developed countries, including those which introduced the test and slaughter campaigns in cattle many years ago (Raviglione, 2003), such as Italy, Spain, England, Ireland etc.

  • Site Selection of the Construction of the System for the Production of Pasta in Ap Vojvodina
    SITE SELECTION OF THE CONSTRUCTION OF THE SYSTEM FOR THE PRODUCTION OF PASTA IN AP VOJVODINA Review article Economics of Agriculture 3/2017 UDC: 658.21:664.69(497.113) SITE SELECTION OF THE CONSTRUCTION OF THE SYSTEM FOR THE PRODUCTION OF PASTA IN AP VOJVODINA Goran Paunovic1, Dragan Solesa2, Marko Ivanis3 Summary In the growing race for the market share, companies geographically position their production and office buildings according to the new business rules. In order for the company to survive in the market, it is necessary to maximize the profit, minimize the costs, maintain a good quality of the product and constantly improve it. The choice of location is one of the vital decisions in the process of building of a production system, although the selection of the location is a problem related to certain time sections in the life of a given production system, the need for research on the effect locations have is stable in time. The aim of the research is the methodological approach to the selection criteria of broader and narrower location for the construction of the production system for pastry production in Vojvodina as an area which has a rich base in raw material. The Agricultural and food industry as branches of industry have a long time tradition as well as a great potential in strengthening economic performances of the Economy of Vojvodina. Evaluation criteria and their use in the model of dimensional analysis will allow a good selection of a good location for the construction of the business systems for the production of pastry.
