Freshwater ecosystems are among the most threatened in world, while providing numerous essential ecosystem services (ES) to humans. Despite their importance, research on freshwater is limited. Here, we examine how studies could help advance ES and vice versa. We summarize major knowledge gaps suggest solutions focusing science policy Europe. found several features that unique ecosystems, but often disregarded assessments. Insufficient transfer of towards stakeholders also problematic....
Abstract. Water resources and associated ecosystems are becoming highly endangered due to ongoing global environmental changes. Spatial ecological modelling is a promising toolbox for understanding the past, present future distribution diversity patterns in groundwater-dependent ecosystems, such as fens, springs, streams, reed beds or wet grasslands. Still, lack of detailed water chemistry maps prevents use reasonable models be applied on continental scales. Being major determinants...
According to the application of European Water Framework Directive, bioassessment surface water bodies is one most important approaches provide deterioration ecosystems and achieve environmental sustainability. Hydromorfological alternation, nutrient enrichment driven by human activities are main factors for ecological compromise freshwater ecosystems. During 2022 we done research bio assessment in 40 Adriatic Sea Basin, it included monitoring i. physico- chemical, ii. iii....
Abstract This study presents investigations of the periphytic diatoms on artificial (glass slides) and natural substrates in karstic, limnocrene spring Bunica situated south Bosnia Herzegovina. Investigations were performed summer 2010. Samples collected every seven days for eight weeks. Physical chemical characteristics water, temperature, oxygen saturation, dissolved oxygen, electric conductivity nutrients as well fl ow velocity at sample site, measured simultaneously with each sampling....
The caddisfly community composition and structure were studied in the Mediterranean (i.e., central part of Herzegovina) temperate Central Bosnia) regions country which differ considerably regarding climate, hydrology, geomorphology, vegetation. In both areas, four rivers with seven sampling sites each selected for light-trapping adult caddisflies during a one-year period. A total 97 species collected 52 Herzegovina 2003 67 Bosnia 2004) them are first records Herzegovina. Marked differences...
Abstract. Water resources and associated ecosystems are becoming highly endangered due to ongoing global environmental changes. Spatial ecological modelling is a widely used tool for understanding the past, present future distribution diversity patterns in groundwater-dependent ecosystems, such as fens, springs, streams, reed beds or wet grasslands. Still, lack of detailed water chemistry maps prevents their reasonable use on continental scales. Being major determinants biological...
Diatoms from two high-altitude creeks in Bosnia and Herzegovina were studied June 2005 to May 2007. Along with diatoms, water temperature, pH, conductivity nutrients also monitored, indicating stable physical chemical conditions, low organic loading oligotrophy. A total of 130 diatom taxa (species subspecies) recorded. Mostly oligotrophic oligo-mesotrophic indicators recorded the creeks. The most abundant genera Eunotia (15), Pinnularia (13), Gomphonema (10) Navicula (9). following all...

 This paper presents the research results of benthos community (phytobenthos and macroinvertebrates) on three locations Neretva River: Glavatičevo, Žitomislići Višići. According to typology rivers, site Glavatičevo belongs undertype 10a, while sites Višići are JIVT (heavily modified water bodies). Research has been done in December 2016 with simultaneous monitoring chemical parameters water. All states showed a great number high diversity benthic...
The aims of this paper were to describe seasonal changes in the qualitative and quantitative composition diatom taxa potential application benthic diatoms for ecological status evaluation. Diatom indices (IPS TI) calculated from data three different locations along a longitudinal profile Bunica, small karstic river Bosnia Herzegovina. A total 147 recorded 12 samples. most common Meridion circulare (Greville) C.Agardh Ulnaria ulna (Nitzsch) Compère. Physical chemical analyses showed low...
The process of travertine formation and carbonate deposition in the rivers is unique, delicate, depends on activity algae mosses. Although diatoms have been used extensively hydrobiological studies, comparative analysis data diatom communities barriers karstic are still scarce. study aimed to detect composition Una River, large river Bosnia Herzegovina. An integrated classical morphological identification approach with metabarcoding was applied eight samples across length profile....

 Research into the benthic diatoms in Bunica River was performed during period from 5th May 2013 to 9th January 2014 on three different sites, headwaters mouth. The is located south-eastern part of Mostar valley, south Bosnia and Herzegovina. aim this research test use as indicators diatom indices a tool for estimating water quality an example small karstic river. For that purpose, were calculated using OMNIDIA GB 5.3 software. This first testing Diatom showed...
