AB  - For the purposes of researching the influence of rainfall factors on soil shear strength, i.e. soil
erosion resistance, research was conducted on plots measuring 1.0x0.3 m at a slope of 15°, with
equally prepared soil. It’s been carried out 12 rainfall simulations with different values of rainfall
factors (rainfall intensity and drops diameter). These simulations were carried out with a modified
rain simulator with sprayers by Živanović et. al (2021). The analysis of the uniformity of the
prepared soil, as well as the examination of the influence of simulated rainfall factors on soil
erosion, was carried out by measuring with a pocket vane tester (Eijkelkamp M1.14.10.E). The
measurement was carried out at 30 regularly spaced locations on every plot, immediately after the
simulation was completed. Also, the measurement was carried out after 24 hours in three places
(upper, middle and lower third of the plot). Spatial distribution of measured values was assessed
by Christians' coefficient of uniformity CU. The measured shear strength values of the prepared
soil range from 2.1 to 6.9 kN/m2. The shear strength values immediately after the simulation range
from 0.4 to 5.4 kN/m2, while after 24 hours they range from 2.4 to 8.1 kN/m2. The CU values of the
prepared soil range from 68% to 81% (average 75%). Immediately after the simulation, Cu values
range from 73% to 83%, while after 24 hours, from 69% to 91%. In general, there is a clear trend of
decreasing values measured with the pocket vane tester from the top to the bottom of the plots.
Also, the influence of the change in soil moisture on the values of soil shear strength was
observed. The change in rainfall factors affects the change in soil resistance to erosion.

AB  - The main objective of this study was to analyze the capacity of Cedrus atlantica (Endl.) Manetti ex Carrière 1855 to accumulate macro- and microelements in order to assess the environmental status. The element concentrations were measured using X-ray Fluorescence (XRF) analysis. The obtained pH values in this study show that the urban soils are neutral to slightly alkaline with low OM content. Macroelements with the highest mean concentrations in soil are Si, Al, Fe, K, Mg, and Ca. The ratio > 2 was determined for mean concentrations of Ca in the soil and Mg in needles from the Zvezdara forest, and for mean concentrations of Cl, Ti, and Fe in needles from the Byford’s forest in relation to the reference site. The accumulation pattern of the macroelements based on the Biological Concentration Factor (BCF) values > 1 for needles is for P, S, Cl, and Ca. Microelements with the highest mean values in soil are Ba, Zr, Ce, Cr, Zn, Rb, Sr, V, and La. Microelements with the highest mean values in Atlas cedar needles are Ce, La, Ba, and Cs. The ratio > 2 was determined for Cr and V concentrations in the needles from the Byford’s and Zvezdara forests and for Cu concentrations in needles from the Byford’s forest in relation to the reference site. The accumulation pattern of the microelements based on the BCF for needles is higher for I, Cs, Mo, Ag, Cd, In, Sn, Sb, and Tl. Since differences in the concentrations of macro- and microelements in the urban areas and the reference site can be identified C. atlantica can be recommended for assessing the environmental status.

AB  - Soil erosion is a problem that affects the landscape at different scales and represents a serious challenge for land management and soil conservation in both natural forests and meadows. The aim of this study was to determine how the parent material and land use affect the physical and chemical properties of the soil in the area of the Fruska gora Mountain. The soils were developed on five bedrock types: serpentinite, marl, trachyte, shale, loess and two land use types: forest and meadow. Twenty-three forest soil and 24 meadow soil from a depth of 0-20 cm were sampled from the Fruska gora Mt. Following properties were determined: pH, electrical conductivity, oxidation-reduction potential, content of organic carbon, sodium adsorption ratio, aggregate size and stability. There is no statistically significant difference in pH, Eh, EC, and SAR values between the analyzed forest and meadow soils, but there is a statistically significant difference in the content of Corg. It can be conculded that both the parent matrial, and to a slightly less extent, land use have a great influence on physico-chemical properties of the soil.
AB  - Ерозија земљишта је проблем који утиче на пределе у различитим размерама и представља озбиљан изазов за управљање земљиштем и очување земљишта како у природним шумама тако и на ливадама. Циљ овог истраживања био је да се утврди како матична стена и начин коришћење земљишта утичу на физичко-хемијске особине земљишта на подручју Фрушке горе. Земљишта су развијена на пет типова стена: серпентинит, лапорац, трахит, шкриљац, лес, као и на два начина коришћења терена: шума и ливада. Са Фрушке горе узоркована су 23 шумска земљишта и 24 ливадска земљишта са дубине од 0-20 цм. Одређена су следећа својства: pH, електрична проводљивост (EC), оксидо-редокс потенцијал (Eh), садржај органског угљеника (Corg), однос адсорпције натријума (SAR), величина агрегата и стабилност. Не постоји статистички значајна разлика у вредностима pH, Eh, EC и SAR између анализираних шумских и ливадских земљишта, али постоји статистички значајна разлика у садржају Corg. Може се закључити да на физичко-хемијске особине земљишта велики утицај имају изворни материјал и у нешто мањој мери начин коришћење земљишта.

This goal will be achieved by determining the key sensitivity soil properties through pysico-chemical analyses and climate simulation experiments; and defining ecosystem services (ES) of UF. Defined indicators will be used to test existing soil degradation indices applicable to forest soils and a suitable soil degradation index for UF under CC conditions will be proposed. Finally, based on previous steps, UbranFoS will define restoration measures based on the principle of ecological engineering and Nature-Based Solutions (NBS).

AB  - Heavy metals as environmental pollutants can have natural or anthropogenic origin. To determine the river sediment pollution status, it is crucial to have appropriate reference samples, free of anthropogenic impact, and natural reference samples should be used wherever and whenever possible. The collection of reference samples should be performed in the vicinity of the research area in a place that belongs to the same geological environment and is undisturbed by human activity. The main purpose of this study was to compare concentrations of heavy metals from different rivers with background values to show that the usage of natural background values is the best option when assessing pollution status, but also to underline that the natural background values have to correspond to the analyzed sediments. In this study, 5 river sediments from Sava, 17 from Great War Island (GWI), 11 from Danube, 24 from Tisa, 47 from Tamiš, and 11 from Timok were evaluated relative to reference samples from the Sava and Tisa Rivers. The results indicate that geological origin has a strong influence on the content of heavy metals in river sediments, primarily regarding concentrations of Ni and Co. Furthermore, Tamiš, Tisa, Sava, and Danube sediments are under strong anthropogenic influence.

abstract = "Soil erosion is a problem that affects the landscape at different scales and represents a serious challenge for land management and soil conservation in both natural forests and meadows. The aim of this study was to determine how the parent material and land use affect the physical and chemical properties of the soil in the area of the Fruska gora Mountain. The soils were developed on five bedrock types: serpentinite, marl, trachyte, shale, loess and two land use types: forest and meadow. Twenty-three forest soil and 24 meadow soil from a depth of 0-20 cm were sampled from the Fruska gora Mt. Following properties were determined: pH, electrical conductivity, oxidation-reduction potential, content of organic carbon, sodium adsorption ratio, aggregate size and stability. There is no statistically significant difference in pH, Eh, EC, and SAR values between the analyzed forest and meadow soils, but there is a statistically significant difference in the content of Corg.

AB  - Badlands can develop under different climatic conditions ranging from arid to humid on materials that have a specific combination of physico-chemical properties depending on their mineralogical composition. Mostly these materials are fine-grained terrigenous, lacustrine or marine sediments of different age. However, badlands can also form in volcano-clasitc materials, and Cappadocia badlands in Turkey is the most prominent example. Less known in the literature are two sites also developed in this type of sediments: Đavolja Varoš, on Radan Moutain in SE Serbia and the Kazár badlands in NW Hungary. The Đavolja Varoš badlands, 0.7 km2 in size is formed by the intensive development of rills and gullies on slopes built from thick volcano-clastic material. The initial relief is reduced only to sharp ridges between adjacent gullies. This badland is developed in dacito-andesitic poorly-consolidated poorly-sorted tuffs. The weathering processes are intense and governed by high intensity precipitation and prolonged drying periods. The reddish earth pyramids built of these erodible materials are protected by the cap rock. Loss of balance and fall of the protective cap rock accelerates the erosion. The smaller Kazár badlands covering the area of 1ha are developed in rhyolitic poorly-consolidated highly porous tuffs. Rills and gullies are the dominant geomorphic processes and the weathering is dominated by freeze-thaw processes. At the Kazár badlands earth pyramids are not protected with the cap rock and weathering, disintegration and sheet wash erosion intensively shape the landscape. Although the materials differ slightly in composition, both being poorly sorted, clay-size rich materials make them sensitive to erosion, proving once more the importance of material composition, in this case namely grain size including sorting and mineralogical composition, for badlands development and future evolution.

AB  - In this study we compared materials from less investigated badland sites in Turkey and China. Critical composition in badland material is the presence and ratio of the clay and silt size particles, clay mineralogy and presence of mobile ions, especially anions. In analyzed materials the presence of smectite governed the formation of surface crust. Surface cracks enabled ion leaching and became preferential paths from sediment movement. Critical composition in badland material is the presence and ratio of the clay and silt size particles and poor sorting. Sulphate and carbonate ions proved to be crucial for surface processes on these materials. Summarizing results it can be concluded that erodibility of badland lithologies is a combination of clay type, silt content and ion concentration.

AB  - Rainfall simulators are important instruments in soil research. In 2019 we have constructed and calibrated
portable field spraying rainfall simulator for a research of effects of changes in soil moisture content on
changes in mechanical parameters of soil and formation of surface runoff and soil erosion. Also, we have
constructed a dripping rainfall simulator with one dripper for the research of splash erosion and calibration
of hypodermic needles for a further development of dripping rainfall simulator with a more than one dripper
for research of rainfall impact and runoff on soil erosion. Beside that we are in a process of modifying
portable field spraying rainfall simulator in term of drops falling height and size, giving us a greater
possibility in the application and analysis of soil erosion. In the paper we will represent our results and
experience gained through the literature analyses and the process of construction and calibration of rainfall
simulators for our research. We have analyzed process of development rainfall simulators, conducted an
analysis of the design and performance of the current dripping rainfall simulators, while collecting data and
creating a database related to the design and performance of spraying rainfall simulators improving our
understanding of research needs and simulator abilities to simulate natural rainfalls. Such approach is pushing
us toward to harmonization of some future rainfall simulators improving and facilitating data analysis of soil
research all around the world. Scientific research in which rain simulators are used, and which can be applied
in the fields of hydrology, agriculture, forestry, as well as in other industrial branches, are becoming
increasingly necessary and frequent.

AB  - Due to the action of erosion processes, degraded areas of forests have a reduced capacity to perform ecosystem services and a reduced production potential of wood mass. In an attempt to reduce such negative effects, one of the steps is to determine the elements of the mechanisms of erosion processes in order to achieve an appropriate solution for remediation by analysing the physical and mechanical parameters of the soil. Using a portable field rainfall simulator in the forest area in the gullies and the conditionally stable zone of the gullies’ banks, experimental soil testing has conducted. Тhe simulator that was used is based on the pop up sprinkler system described in detail by Živanović et al. (2022). The limited amount of water on the field, as well as the duration of the pouring rain for the study area, affected the duration of each test to be limited to 10 minutes. During the experiment, the effects of changes in soil moisture on changes in the parameters of soil shear resistance and resistance to penetration, as well as the formation of surface runoff and soil erosion, have been observed. Research has been conducted during the spring and autumn. It was established that the change in the current soil moisture affects the change in the mechanical parameters of the soil. Compared to tests on gullies’ banks, the values of soil shear resistance and resistance to penetration are lower in tests in gullies. The presence of cracks and macropores influenced the appearance of rapid infiltration into the soil of part of the precipitation, which resulted in small amounts of runoff water on the exit profile (3.76–32.71% of the total volume of rain). Surface erosion occurs in the form of tearing off entire microaggregates and their transport via micro-furrows to the outlet profile. The concentration of sediments in the water, during tests on the banks, tended to decrease with each subsequent repetition. It’s been determined that soils of the research area are sensitive to erosion processes when they are in a state of low natural humidity. With an increase in water content above 20%, the soil becomes more sensitive to erosion processes and other forms of physical degradation. After an increase in the current water content above 42% (the average value of the liquid limit), the soil was in a saturated state when the resistance forces cease to act.

AB  - Wetlands are multifunctional systems performing as nature-based solutions (NBS) for water management. This paper provides an overview of natural and constructed wetlands and their potential to support the regulation of hydrological fluxes and water quality. Wetlands can modulate peak flows by storing runoff and slowly releasing it over time, with positive impacts on soil moisture. They can also change the overall water balance by influencing evapotranspiration, infiltration, and groundwater recharge. They can enhance resilience of a catchment to floods and torrents, especially with relative low return periods (<50 years), and safeguard water availability during droughts. Wetlands may remove or reduce a number of organic and inorganic pollutants (e.g., nutrients, heavy metals, hydrocarbons, pesticides) by different physical, chemical, and biological processes developed between vegetation, microorganisms, soil/growth substrate, and water. They have proven to be efficient and effective in improving the quality of water from different sources, such as runoff from agriculture and urban areas, and domestic and industrial wastewater. The overall performance of wetlands is determined by their characteristics (e.g., size, design, type of vegetation), within-catchment position, type and amount of water and pollutants, and local conditions (e.g., climate). A focus on wetlandscape, rather than individual wetlands, is required for optimal water management and maximization of other ecosystem services.

AB  - The aim of this study is to investigate the influence of weathering processes on the distribution of n-alkanes in unweathered and weathered samples of badland material. Organic matter (OM) of both the weathered and unweathered zones in badland environments is derived from the same sources such any differences between the n-alkane pattern of the two zones can be attributed to the impact of weathering processes under different climate conditions. Organic geochemical and mineralogical characterizations were employed to investigate twenty-one samples from weathered badland environments in Italy, Spain, and Canada that originally derive from marine, distal alluvial, and fluvial depositional settings, respectively. According to the distribution of n-alkanes and diterpanes, unweathered samples from Italy have an original mixed aquatic-terrestrial origin of OM, with a variable (low to moderate) contribution of terrestrial plants as precursors, while unweathered samples from Spain predominantly contain OM originating from submerged/floating macrophytes deposited under reducing conditions. Unweathered samples from Canada predominantly consist of terrigenous OM. Intensity of changes in n-alkanes distribution when subjected to weathering depends on the type of precursor biomass and quantity of smectite. Predominantly terrigenous OM under semi-arid conditions shows the highest affinity for adsorption is in contact with smectite surfaces. Mid- and long-chain odd n-alkanes have a tendency to build colloidal particles with polar organic compounds such as fatty acids by strong binding and thus their preservation from degradation is possible.

AB  - The quality and vitality of cities largely depend on the design, management, and maintenance of green areas, including urban protected areas (UPAs), since they provide multiple benefits for the city. Due to urbanization and higher anthropogenic pressure, green areas are decreasing which directly afects natural habitats and biodiversity. This study aims to assess soil and vegetation chemical status in UPAs in the city of Belgrade, Serbia, and to understand how their distance from pollution hotspots affects soil and vegetation quality. Additionally, this paper considers the inclusion of soil and vegetation conditions in the urban protected areas management as a basis for introducing a connectivity approach to expand green infrastructure throughout the city. Chemical properties, the content of nutrients (C, N, P, and K), and microelements (Cr, Co, Ni, Cu, Zn, As, Cd, Sn, Pb, Zr, U, and Th) in soil and conifer needles were analyzed. Results showed that the distance of pollution hotspots does not affect nutrient and microelements concentrations in soil, i.e., they do 
not vary significantly between sites and do not exceed remediation intervention values. However, the microelements status of vegetation is affected since Cr, Cu, Zn, Sn, and Pb are higher in needles from trees from the city center. The state of soil and plant composition supports the establishment of a network of green corridors and should become a part of management strategies, thus helping biodiversity protection, climate change mitigation, and human well-being in the cities.

AB  - A diversity of factors, led by lithology, weathering, and erosion processes, plays a significant role in the formation and future of badland terrains. Then on previous observations it can be concluded that surface flow processes are the first trigger of erosion and that intense soil erosion combined with rapid and deep weathering are tightly connected to high erosion rates.
Since climate change presents a global issue that gains increasing attention and due to the complexity of the interactions and processes that are a part of general badlands origin and evolution, a weathering experiment on badland sediments from China was conducted. Explaining temporal changes, the impact of different precipitation types and its durations of exposure on sediments during weathering processes, as well as its impact on leachate ions behaviour are the aims behind this experiment.
Red clayey siltstone and mudstone badland sediments selected for the laboratory experiment were organized in four sets that included three different samples, making a total of 12 treated samples. Based on field climate data, in laboratory conditions samples were exposed to rain, acid rain, snow, and acid snow through fifteen daily cycles. Leachate was collected after each cycle and its volume, pH, electrical conductivity (EC), and ion concentrations were measured and analysed from the leachate. Changes occurring on the surface of the sample were observed through photographs taken at the end of each cycle.
Based on obtained results it can be said that the main differences occur when comparing rain and snow treatments generally. Temporal, cyclic changes were, to a certain extent, noticed through sediment decay. More importantly, durations of sediment exposure to precipitation proved to be crucial for weathering processes of tested siltstones and mudstones, having exclusion and ionic forces - ion exchange chromatography as dominant chemical processes.

AB  - Background and Aims: In the global distribution of persistent organic pollutants (POPs) forests play a key role due to the forest canopy effect. In this study, mountain beech forests were selected to identify the level and distribution of selected POPs. 
Methods: Organochlorine pesticides (OCPs) and polybrominated diphenyl ethers (PBDEs) were analyzed by capillary gas chromatography with an electron capture detector (GC–ECD). Analysis of polychlorinated biphenyls (PCBs) was performed by gas chromatography with a mass spectrometry detector (GC–MS). The polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) were analyzed by liquid chromatography with a diode array detector (HPLC–DAD).
Results: The total ∑20OCP concentrations in the soil from mountain beech forests at a depth of 0 – 40 cm ranged from 24.46 μg kg −1 to 331.11 μg kg −1, and at a depth of 40 – 80 cm from 15.80 μg kg−1 to 247.12 μg kg −1. The mass concentration for ∑ 6PCB ranges from 9.21 to 95.28 μg kg−1 in the surface soil layer and from 8.07 to 66.56 μg kg −1 in the soil sub.layer. The total concentration of ∑7PBDE congeners measured in soil samples from mountain beech forests
across Europe was from 1.38 to 29.68 μg kg−1 in the surface soil layer and from 1.01 to 53.31 μg kg−1 in the soil sublayer. The total concentration of ∑ 16PAH varied from 271.52 to 1154.52 μg kg−1 in the surface soil layer and from 318.95 to 1052.54 μg kg −1 in the soil sublayer.
Conclusion: The results of this study can serve as an important basis for international, national, and regional measures of environmental protection of beech forests from POPs pollution.

AB  - Process-based models and empirical modelling techniques are frequently used to (i) explore the sensitivity of tree growth to environmental variables, and (ii) predict the future growth of trees and forest stands under climate change scenarios. However, modelling approaches substantially influence predictions of the sensitivity of trees to environmental factors. Here, we used tree-ring width (TRW) data from 1630 beech trees from a network of 70 plots established across European mountains to build empirical predictive growth models using various modelling approaches. In addition, we used 3-PG and Biome-BGCMuSo process-based models to compare growth predictions with derived empirical models. Results revealed similar prediction errors (RMSE) across models ranging between 3.71 and 7.54 cm2 of basal area increment (BAI). The models explained most of the variability in BAI ranging from 54 % to 87 %. Selected explanatory variables (despite being statistically highly significant) and the pattern of the growth sensitivity differed between models substantially. We identified only five factors with the same effect and the same sensitivity pattern in all empirical models: tree DBH, competition index, elevation, Gini index of DBH, and soil silt content. However, the sensitivity to most of the climate variables was low and inconsistent among the empirical models. Both empirical and process based models suggest that beech in European mountains will, on average, likely experience better growth conditions
under both 4.5 and 8.5 RCP scenarios. The process-based models indicated that beech may grow better across European mountains by 1.05 to 1.4 times in warmer conditions. The empirical models identified several drivers of tree growth that are not included in the current process-based models (e.g., different nutrients) but may have a substantial effect on final results, particularly if they are limiting factors. Hence, future development of process-based models may build upon our findings to increase their ability to correctly capture ecosystem dynamics.

AB  - Dripping rainfall simulators (DRS) are important instruments in soil research. However, a large number of non-standardized simulators have been developed, making it difficult to combine and compare the results of different studies in which they were used. To overcome such a problem, it is necessary to become familiar with the design and performances of the current rainfall simulators applied. It has been conducted a search for scientific papers describing dripping rainfall simulators and papers that are thematically related to soil research using DRS. Simulator design analysis was performed integrally, for simulators with more than one dripper (DRS>1) and with one dripper (DRS=1). Descriptive and numerical data were separated from the papers and sorted by proposed categories, according to which the types and subtypes of used simulators are determined. The six groups of elements that simulators could consist of have been determined, as well as their characteristics, representation, and statistical analyses of their available numerical parameters. The characteristics of simulators are analyzed and presented, thus is facilitated the selection of simulators for future research. Description of future simulators in accordance with the basic groups of simulator elements should provide all data necessary for their easier replication and provide a step closer to the reduction of design diversification and standardization of rain simulators intended for soil research.

AB  - Purpose
The Great War Island (GWI) is a landform of exceptional features and a protected area located in the center of Belgrade at the Sava and Danube River’s confluence. The position of GWI causes a large number of possible hydrocarbons inputs that influence the quality of both river waters and sediments. The main objective of this research is to assess the distribution and source of hydrocarbons in sediments deposited at the GWI depending on the river’s flow regimes and depositional environment.

Material and methods
Sediment samples were collected from 16 sites (11 sites along the GWI’s coast, 4 sites from the inner of the Island, and 1 specific wetland site). The grain size was determined using a standard wet sieving procedure. The extractable organic matter (OM) was quantified after Soxhlet extraction, and aliphatic and aromatic fractions were isolated by column chromatography. n-Alkanes, diterpanes, terpanes, steranes, and 16 PAHs are analyzed by gas chromatography-mass spectrometry.

Results and discussion
Sand fraction predominates in coastal samples, and clay size fraction in the samples from the inner island environment. The predominance of odd higher n-alkanes indicates the terrestrial origin of OM, while the distribution of lower n-alkanes indicates a certain proportion of algae, bacteria, and/or high maturity of OM. The presence of oil-type pollutants is confirmed by thermodynamically stable biomarker isomers and/or the presence of unresolved complex mixture (UCM). Inner island samples are characterized by the largest amount of Corg (up 6%), indicating high bioproductivity and good preservation of OM. Samples from wetland environment are distinguished by the domination of pimaranes and phyllocladanes among saturated hydrocarbons.

Conclusions
This study revealed that sediments of the GWI mainly contain native OM with a certain anthropogenic input. The native OM predominately comes from higher terrestrial plants (Salix alba, Populus nigra, Fraxinus viridis, Taxodium distichum Rich.), followed by various types of grasses, macrophytes (Salvinia natans, Nymphaea alba), bacteria, algae, and phytoplankton. Anthropogenic OM originates from petroleum, but also combustion products arrived by deposition from the air and runoff.

AB  - Heavy metals are naturally occurring elements, but they are regarded as significant environmental pollutants due to their high density and high toxicity even at low concentrations. The aim of this paper is the evaluation of the pollution level of heavy metals in the river and riverbank sediments, as well as the estimation of their origin and spatial differences along the course of the Vrbas River through Banja Luka. The concentrations of metals have been assessed using the Inductively coupled plasma – optical emission spectrometry and Advanced mercury analyzer for mercury determination. The anthropogenic impact on heavy metal concentration in sediments was estimated by the calculating of pollution indices: geoaccumulation index (Igeo ), contamination factor (Cf ), pollution load index (PLI) and potential ecological risk index (Er). Obtained results indicate that there is no statistically significant spatial difference in metal concentration, indicating that heavy metals in sediments have a constant source. The anthropogenic impact expressed by the values of pollution indices showed that sites are generally uncontaminated by Co, Cr and V and moderately contaminated by Zn, Cu and Ni.

abstract = "Heavy metals are naturally occurring elements, but they are regarded as significant environmental pollutants due to their high density and high toxicity even at low concentrations. The aim of this paper is the evaluation of the pollution level of heavy metals in the river and riverbank sediments, as well as the estimation of their origin and spatial differences along the course of the Vrbas River through Banja Luka. The concentrations of metals have been assessed using the Inductively coupled plasma – optical emission spectrometry and Advanced mercury analyzer for mercury determination. The anthropogenic impact on heavy metal concentration in sediments was estimated by the calculating of pollution indices: geoaccumulation index (Igeo ), contamination factor (Cf ), pollution load index (PLI) and potential ecological risk index (Er). Obtained results indicate that there is no statistically significant spatial difference in metal concentration, indicating that heavy metals in sediments have a constant source. The anthropogenic impact expressed by the values of pollution indices showed that sites are generally uncontaminated by Co, Cr and V and moderately contaminated by Zn, Cu and Ni. On the contrary, lead, mercury and cadmium pose the highest ecological risk. The anthropogenic source of Pb, Hg and Cd is industry, municipal waste and the combustion of fossil fuels. The obtained results demonstrate the high ecological risk and the need for environmental monitoring, with the aim to support an efficient strategy to reduce local pollution and contamination of the investigated system., Тешки метали су елементи природног порекла, али се сматрају значајним полутантима животне средине због велике густине и токсичности, чак и при малим концентрацијама.

AB  - The International Union for Conservation of Nature (IUCN) has a vision that the proper evaluation of protected areas (PAs) leads to a greater interest, more significant investment, and better conservation of natural resources. The evaluation of ecosystem services (ES) provided by protected areas (PAs) is of long-term importance to the local and national economies. Mapping the values of PAs, greater participation of decision-makers, and finally changes in public policies and the development of economic models that include natural resources in their development plans are significant but also long-term processes. IUCN has established the Protected Areas Benefits Assessment Tool+ (PA-BAT+), which provides initial information on how different stakeholders view the current state and potential values of PAs, which can help integrate natural resources and services provided by ecosystems in development plans. Such a tool makes it possible to identify the main factors relevant to the PAs and the country’s development policy, the flow of economic benefits, and the need for strategies that will enable the return of income to local people and PAs. Factors relevant to the importance of specific jobs in PAs - which is vital for the rural economy and necessary for decision-makers could also be identified with this tool. Identifying these factors can increase PA’s contribution to the Sustainable Development Goals, such as no poverty, zero hunger, good health and well-being for people, quality education, clean water and sanitation, sustainable cities and communities, climate action, life below water and life on land.

AB  - The main objectives of this research were to (i) investigate the concentration; (ii) characterize the distribution; (iii) determine the sources apportionment; (iv) estimate environmental and health risks of heavy metals in soil from mountain beech forest. A total of 76 soil samples from 20 pure beech forest stands from Bosnia and Herzegovina (BA), Bulgaria (BG), Check Republic (CZ), Germany (DE), Italy (IT), Poland (PL), Romania (RO), Serbia (RS), Slovakia (SK), Slovenia (SL), and Spain (ES) were collected. The content of major elements was measured by X-ray fluorescence spectroscopy (XRF). The content of heavy metals was measured by inductively coupled plasma–optical emission spectrometry (ICP/OES). Heavy metals had a specific concentration range, which followed in soil samples from depth 0–40 cm the common order (low to high): Hg < Cd < As < Co < Pb < Ni < Cu < Cr < Zn, and from depth 40–80 cm: Hg < Cd < As < Pb < Co < Ni < Cu < Cr < Zn. The grouping of the examined parameters according to rock types, soil types, and localities indicated the separation of carbonate rocks from other substrates, luvisol, and rendzina from other soil types, and samples from BA, SL, and IT from other localities. According to sources apportionment As, Pb and Zn are of anthropogenic origin, Cd, Co, Cr, and Ni are of geogenic origin, while the middle position of Cu and Hg indicates a combined contribution of both sources. Elements Cd and Hg indicated severe to extremely severe enrichment with a mean value of 24.3 and 70.6, respectively. Based on the determined values Ni, Cr, As and Cd do not pose a health risk.
