INTRODUCTION There is growing evidence for changes in the global hydrological cycle over the past decades that may be linked to changes in climate (CC). In 4.2. Activity: Present and future risks on water resources availability with emphasis on drinking water supply common methodology for determining available water resources was agreed, taking into account different resources types and water intake for public water supply, different manifestations of climate impacts, different sizes of analyzed test areas, as well as different levels of data availability for describing current state of water resources and forecasting possible changes. On figure 1.1. the relation between activities within work package 4 (WP4) and also outputs are presented. Figure 1.1: WP4 activities and outputs Common methodology for determination of water availability in Adriatic area – July, 2016 6 In the Adriatic area 9 test areas were selected (figure 1.2) to analyse the risk on water resources availability in the future 2021-2050 period under the climate change impact, where as a criterion for consideration of climate change impact standard climatological 30- year period 1961-1990 was selected as reference. The availability of water resources was analysed from the aspect of total use and use for drinking purpose. Water resources in test areas have cross-border or cross-regional character and their availability can affect the water supply in more than one country or region within the country. On figure 1.3, test area locations are shown with marked meteorological stations whose data are included on figures 1.4 and 1.5.

From urban geodiversity to geoheritage: the case of Ljubljana (Slovenia). Quaestiones Geographicae 36(3), Bogucki Wydawnictwo Naukowe, Poznań, pp. 37–50. 7 figs, 1 table. aBsTracT: The city of Ljubljana lies at the intersection of various geomorphological regions that have strongly influ- enced its spatial organization. Prehistoric settlements were built on marshland, a Roman town was built on the first river terrace of the Ljubljanica River, and in the Middle Ages a town was built in a strategic position between the Lju- bljanica River and Castle Hill. The modern city absorbed all usable space between the nearby hills. This paper reviews some relief features in Ljubljana, their influence on the city’s spatial development, and urban geoheritage. The results indicate new possibilities for urban geoheritage tourism in the Slovenian capital and its surroundings.

General hydrogeological problems INTRODUCTION Karst aquifers are important sources of water supply, but due to their specific characteristics they are very vulnerable to various human activities. For the efficient planning of protection measures it is essential to understand and consider the characteristics of groundwater flow and the processes of its exchange with surface waters. This is especially difficult for karst springs with a large extent and complex structure of their recharge areas. One of such examples is the Malenscica karst spring in south-western Slovenia, which is captured for the regional water supply. Based on hydrogeological researches, its protection zones were set in 1987, but they have not been properly implemented in praxis. Since then the understanding of the functioning of this karst system has improved and the proposed protection measures should be adjusted adequately. In order to do this the relations between different parts of the recharge area and the changes in the shares of their contribution at different hydrological conditions were studied in more detail. The physical and chemical parameters of water at different locations within the catchment were monitored in the total period of two hydrological years.

Unlike the nominate form, the genetically similar subspecies P.a. parkelj from Bela Krajina in Slovenia is pigmented and might represent a distinct species, although a recent genetic study suggests that the two subspecies are poorly differentiated at the molecular level and may not even warrant subspecies status (Goricki and Trontelj 2006).

  • JULIAN ALPS TRIGLAV NATIONAL PARK 2The Julian Alps
    1 JULIAN ALPS TRIGLAV NATIONAL PARK www.slovenia.info 2The Julian Alps The Julian Alps are the southeast- ernmost part of the Alpine arc and at the same time the mountain range that marks the border between Slo- venia and Italy. They are usually divided into the East- ern and Western Julian Alps. The East- ern Julian Alps, which make up approx- imately three-quarters of the range and cover an area of 1,542 km2, lie entirely on the Slovenian side of the border and are the largest and highest Alpine range in Slovenia. The highest peak is Triglav (2,864 metres), but there are more than 150 other peaks over 2,000 metres high. The emerald river Soča rises on one side of the Julian Alps, in the Primorska re- gion; the two headwaters of the river Sava – the Sava Dolinka and the Sava Bohinjka – rise on the other side, in the Gorenjska region. The Julian Alps – the kingdom of Zlatorog According to an ancient legend a white chamois with golden horns lived in the mountains. The people of the area named him Zlatorog, or “Goldhorn”. He guarded the treasures of nature. One day a greedy hunter set off into the mountains and, ignoring the warnings, tracked down Zlatorog and shot him. Blood ran from his wounds Chamois The Triglav rose and fell to the ground. Where it landed, a miraculous plant, the Triglav rose, sprang up. Zlatorog ate the flowers of this plant and its magical healing powers made him invulnerable. At the same time, however, he was saddened by the greed of human beings.
