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  - Dripping rainfall simulators for soil research generate water drops with different types of drippers, such as plastic and glass tubes, drippers in a form of holes, irrigation drippers and hanging yarn, among which metal tubes are the most commonly used. Metal tubes appear in the form of capillaries with a flat tip or in the form of hypodermic needles. Hypodermic needles are suitable for this purpose because their diameter size is standardized with relatively small deviations from the standardized dimensions, they are available on the market, relatively cheap, made of stainless material and have a threaded connector (Luer taper). However, very often the descriptions of the rainfall simulators were not complete, nor was the calibration of the needles. In order to conduct calibration and define water drops diameter for different hypodermic needles size and dripping speed, it was constructed rainfall simulator with one dripper in a form of hypodermic needle. Simulator was designed in accordance to research of Rončević et al., (2022), needle calibration research and future soil research requirements. Simulator was intended primarily for laboratory use. It consists of structural support, water tank, water pump, mechanism of water flow regulation and simulator operation, water tank with dripper and dripper. Calibration was conducted for 11 different needles, ranging in size from 16 G to 32 G (G – gauge number), at different dripping speed, using drop counting sensor. Water drops are measured using weight measuring method. Obtained water drops size ranging from 3.70 to 1.48 mm. Based on research data, two nomograms were made for determination of interconnected parameters of potentially simulated rainfall: water drops size under different dripping speed, drippers discharge, number of drippers, and kinetic energy of water drops for the given falling height. The results of research provide the data necessary for the design of future dripping rainfall simulators for soil research and use of hypodermic needles as drippers.

AB  - Rainfall simulators represent often-used equipment for soil research. Depending on their performance, they could be appropriate for some soil research or not. The aim of this research is to provide insight into the capabilities of existing dripping rainfall simulators (DRS) to mimic natural rainfall and the frequency of simulated rainfalls of certain characteristics, facilitate the selection of rain simulators that would best meet the needs of soil research and to reach a step closer to the standardization of rainfall simulators. DRS performance was analyzed integrally, for simulators with more than one dripper (DRS>1) and with one dripper (DRS=1). A statistical analysis was performed for the performance of the DRS, wetted area, drop size, rainfall intensity, duration and kinetic energy. The analysis showed that DRS can provide rainfall that corresponds to natural rainfall, except in terms of the drop size distribution and wetted area. However, usually there are more factors that do not correspond to natural rainfall, such as the median drop size, volume and kinetic energy. Metal and plastic tubes (MT and PT) as the most present dripper types showed a strong relation between the outer diameter (OD) and drop size, while the inner diameter (ID) relation was moderate-to-weak. However, when increasing the range of MT drippers, for diameter size, the relation significance becomes very strong for bouts ID and OD. With the increase in the ID of PT, the relation deviates from the logarithmic curve that represents all drippers together. The sizes of the drops generated by the drippers are mostly in the range between 2 and 6 mm, while the number of drops smaller than 2 mm is relatively small. The intensity and duration of the simulated rain can be successfully produced to match natural values, with the most frequently simulated short-term rainfall of a high intensity. Most simulations were conducted at a fall height of up to 2 m, and then their number gradually decreases as the height gets closer to 5 m. Most simulations (58.6%) occur in the range between 20-90% KE, then 33.0% in a range of 90-100%, with only 8.4% lower than 20% KE.

AB  - The choice of drippers for dripping rainfall simulators (DRS) is often based on the experience of previous research or personal empirical knowledge, under the assumption that drippers in form of tubes and holes with a smaller internal diameter (ID) generate water drops of a smaller diameter and vice versa, neglecting other factors that affect the size of the drops. The aim of research is to provide insight into the influence of DRS dripper size, type and dripping speed (i.e., the number of water drops dripped out from a dripper per unit of time) on generating different water drop size. A search was conducted for all available scientific papers describing DRS and papers that include a wide range of thematically related papers to soil research in which DRS are used starting from 1941 until today. Out of a total of 188 scientific papers included in the analysis, 76 different types and 31 subtypes of DRS have been singled out. The analyses of DRS drippers design and performance was conducted in terms of the drops’ sizes that they are able to generate. The analysis was conducted integrally, for simulators with more than one dripper and with one dripper. Metal and plastic tubes (MT and PT), which are the most common drippers’ type, showed a strong relationship between the outer diameter (OD) with the drop size, while the ID relationship was moderate to weak. However, when increasing the range of MT drippers’ diameter size, the relationship significance became very strong for both ID and OD. It is observed that with the increase of the ID of PT the relationship deviates from the logarithmic curve that represents all dripper types together. Although the applied dripping intensity difference is quite big for MT, drop size does not differ much. On the other hand, PT generate much bigger difference in drop size for a less drastic change in intensity. It is suggested that a possible reason for such a deviation and difference in the functional forms that describes drop and drippers size relations could be the dripper material, but considering that MT drippers generally have a thinner wall than PT or glass tubes (GT), drippers material type rather determines the thickness of the tube wall.

A statistical analysis of the performance of DRS, wetted area, drop size, rainfall intensity, duration and kinetic energy (KE) was performed. The analysis showed that DRS can provide rainfall that resembles natural rainfall, except in terms of drop size distribution and wetted area. However, usually there are more factors that do not correspond to the natural rainfall, such as median drop size, volume and kinetic energy. The sizes of the drops generated by drippers are mostly in the range between 2 and 6 mm, while the number of drops smaller than 2 mm is relatively small. The intensity and duration of the simulated rain can be successfully produced to match natural values, with the most frequently simulated short-term rainfall of high intensity. The majority of the simulations was conducted at a fall height of up to 2 m; the other experiments were conducted at fall heights that increased from 2 m up to a fall height of 5 m. The KE of the majority of simulations (58.6%) occurred in the range between 20–90% of terminal KE, 33.0% in the range 90–100% and only 8.4% was lower than 20%.",

AB  - The aim of this study was to investigate the environmental risk from the gasoline range volatile
organic contaminants in the Sava river aquifer. The investigated area is located in New
Belgrade, in the vicinity of the largest heating plant in Belgrade, the capital of Serbia. Our
previous research on the oil pollutants in the groundwater at this locality was focused on the
origin and spatial distribution of these contaminants, and estimation of potential human
health risks from exposure to these compounds. [1] The purpose of our present study is a Tier
I Environmental risk assessment in this part of the aquifer.
Groundwater samples were collected from 28 hydrogeological boreholes. Preliminary
analyses of the organic compounds extracted from the groundwater samples were conducted
by gas chromatography with flame ionization detection (GC-FID), and by gas chromatography
– mass spectrometry (GC-MS). Volatile organic compounds (VOCs) were analyzed and
identified by headspace gas chromatography – mass spectrometry. Chemicals of concern were
quantified by headspace gas chromatography with flame ionization detection (HS-GC-FID).
In the groundwater samples analyzed, the most frequently detected VOCs were from the
group of the gasoline range organics. Concentrations of the individual VOCs ranged from
below detection limits to 5.2 mg/L. For each of the compounds quantified, the Risk Quotient
(RQ) was calculated as the ratio of the measured concentration of that compound in the
groundwater sample and the lowest Predicted Non-Effect Concentration for freshwater
aquatic organisms (PNEC). The PNEC values were adopted from the European chemicals
agency’s (ECHA) Registration Dossier database. [2] At some of the sampling points, the
detected concentrations of VOCs were higher than that of the PNEC values with resulting RQ
> 1. Considering the fact that the VOC compounds analyzed were present as mixtures, the
mixture RQ was calculated (as a sum of the individual RQs) for each sampling point. Out of 28
sampling points, at 7 of them the mixture RQs were higher than 1 which indicates a potentially
medium to high ecological risk from these compounds in this part of the aquifer.
In addition to the conclusion from our previous study on the human risk assessment from
exposure to the volatile organic compounds in the groundwater at this location, [1] this
research emphasizes a necessity for a continuous monitoring of the water quality in the
investigated area.

AB  - In this paper, the stability analysis before and after the application of technical solutions was performed on a landslide located on the Stolicе-Krupanj route, in the western part of the Republic of Serbia. The landslide also affected part of the road, so the movement of traffic was difficult. Several solutions of the gabion retaining wall and the leveling of the slope affected by the landslide were analyzed. The selection of the optimal solution is based on the fulfillment of two criteria: the stability of the structure and the stability of the entire slope. The stability before the application of technical measures and the general stability of the slope with the applied measures were examined using the Yanbu method, and the local stability using the Bishop method. The stability of the wall was checked in terms of overturning and horizontal movement. These analyzes were performed using GEO5 software (Geotechnical software). Analytical analysis of the load-bearing capacity of the soil under the retaining walls was carried out using the Brinc Hansen method. Two solutions met the set criteria, solution I with a safety factor Fs = 1.81 and solution II Fs = 1.75. The analysis of the bearing capacity of the soil showed that the foundation soil can safely receive the load from the structure in the case of both solutions. Solution II was selected for the optimal solution for landslide rehabilitation.

AB  - It is necessary to harmonize the needs of society in terms of agricultural production and land protection from
various forms of degradation throughout sustainable land management. Various models of sustainable soil
management are being applied with an aime to prevent the erosion destruction of the soil through adequate
processing methods, with appropriate yields and positive economic effects of such production. Assessing the
justification of investment in sustainable management of land resources is an important step in this process.
Analysis of soil erosion risk was carried out in the suburban area of the morphological unit of the Barička
river watershed, using the Revised Universal Soil Loss Equation (RUSLE) method, with the existing and
projected structure of agricultural production according to the Future Agricultural Production Structure
Model from the Aspect of Preserving Land Resources for Mountain Catchment Areas of Serbia (FAPSMS).
The value of the existing and projected production structure from an economic aspect was also examined
using dynamic economic methods such as Internal Rate of Return (IRR), Repayment of the In-vested Funds
(RIF), Cost-Benefit Ratio (CBR) and Net Present Value (NPV). In order to assess the risk and uncertainty of
investments, a sensitive analysis of dynamic methods IRR and RIF was carried out. Economic indicators
show that the investment is justified and that it is more sensitive to changes in income.

AB  - Wild thyme contains biologically active compounds, particularly polyphenols (flavonoids and phenolic acids) that exert antitumor, antimicrobial, anti-inflammatory, antioxidant, immunomodulatory, analgesic, and spasmolytic activities. Nevertheless, the mentioned bioactive compounds have low stability, solubility, and bioavailability, thus their application is limited. Liposomal particles have been widely used for the encapsulation of bioactive components, due to their high structural integrity, stability during storage, and controlled release capability. In the present study, phospholipid-cholesterol liposomal particles, as the carrier for wild thyme extract, were developed. The stability of extract-loaded liposomes was monitored for 21 days by measuring vesicle size, polydispersity index (PDI), and zeta potential. The particle size and PDI of extract-loaded liposomes did not change drastically during 21 days of storage and amounted to ~450 nm and ~0.155, respectively. The zeta potential varied in the liposomes and started to decrease after 7 days of storage (from -21.0 mV to 20.3 mV, without a statistically significant difference), while the zeta potential value after 21 days was statistically significantly lower in comparison to the 1st day (19.3 mV). The beneficial effects of polyphenols on human health, as well as showed storage stability of the prepared liposomes highlight the use of the wild thyme extract-loaded phospholipid-cholesterol liposomal particles for potential application in food, pharmaceutical, and cosmetic industries.

The beneficial effects of polyphenols on human health, as well as showed storage stability of the prepared liposomes highlight the use of the wild thyme extract-loaded phospholipid-cholesterol liposomal particles for potential application in food, pharmaceutical, and cosmetic industries.",

AB  - Dripping rainfall simulators (DRS) are important instruments in soil research.
Depending of their performance they could be appropriate for
some soil research or not. Therefore, a large number of non-standardized
DRS have been developed. The major component of simulator are drippers
that come in a various type and size with diff erent modifi cations. The aim
of research is to provide insight into the mechanism and ability of DRS drippers
to generate drops of different diameters and the factors that affect
it as are dripper size, type and dripping speed. Drippers performance was
analyzed integrally, for simulators with more than one dripper (DRS>1) and
with one dripper (DRS=1). The analysis showed that DRS can provide drops
that corresponds to natural rainfalls. The sizes of the drops generated by
drippers are mostly in the range between 2 and 6 mm, while the number
of drops smaller than 2 mm is relatively small. Metal tubes (MT) are the
most present, after which plastic tubes (PT) follow. They showed strong
correlation of outer diameter (OD) with drop size, while ID correlation is
moderate to weak. It is observed that with the increase of the ID of PT the
relation deviates from the logarithmic curve that represents all dripper
types together. Also, although the applied dripping intensity difference is quite big for MT, drop size does not differ much. On the other hand, PT
generate much bigger difference in drop size for less drastic change in
dripping intensity. Considering MT drippers generally have a thinner wall
then PL or glass tube (GT) drippers the thickness of tube wall is imposed
as a reason for such deviation.

AB  - Various models of sustainable soil management are being applied in the world. They are aimed to prevent
the erosion destruction of the soil through adequate processing methods, with appropriate yields and positive
economic effects of such production. Conservation of soil on sloped terrains is of great importance, especially
having in mind that mountain soils are home to 25% of all terrestrial biodiversity, including agrobiodiversity.
Sustainable agricultural management needs to account for site specific characteristics, including topographic
factors and coexisting biotopes. In Serbia the trend of people leaving rural households and moving to cities
became increased during the second half of the twentieth century that led to a change in soil use so that the
areas under meadows, orchards and vineyards were increased at the expense of areas under arable soils and
pastures so the intensity of erosion processes have decreased. However, soil erosion is still very widespread
in Serbia. More than 86% of Serbia's surface is affected by erosion of different intensity. According to
Gavrilović’s erosion potential method, soil erosion endangerment of research area of Barička river basin is
in the category of medium erosion endangerment. The aim of this study is to determine existing soil erosion
risk and risk after application of Future Agricultural Production Structure Model from the Aspect of
Preserving Land Resources for Mountain Catchment Areas of Serbia (FAPSMS), in the suburban area of the
morphological unit of the Barička river watershed, in Serbia. An analysis of soil erosion risk was carried out,
using the Revised Universal Soil Loss Equation (RUSLE) method, with the existing and projected structure
of agricultural production according to the FAPSMS. The results show that soil erosion losses are already
below tolerance values with the existing production structure and that they could be reduced even more by
applying the projected structure.

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.

examined, using dynamic economic methods. In order to assess the risk
and uncertainty of investments, a sensitive analysis of dynamic methods
was carried out. The results of the research showed that soil erosion losses
are already below tolerance values with the existing production structure
and that they could be reduced even more by applying the designed
structure. Economic indicators have shown that the investment is justified
and that it is more sensitive to changes in income.

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.

abstract = "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  - Natural processes and anthropogenic activity threaten soil as a resource.
Soil degradation is a global problem intensifi ed by climate change, population
growth and economic development. Soil erosion is one of the
most prevalent forms of degradation in Serbia. Soil resistance to erosive
processes largely depends on the soil‘s physical properties. Erosion processes
aff ect changes in the physical characteristics of the soil. Therefore,
the hypothesis is established: There is a diff erence between the physical
parameters of soil aff ected by erosion processes and soil on which there
are no visible indicators of the action of these processes.The investigated
area is located in the southern, hilly part of Belgrade, in a degraded
forest area vegetated by Hungarian and Turkey oak (Quercetum frainetto
– cerris). Intensive landslide and gully erosion processes aff ect this area.
The mechanism of occurrence of the erosion process is piping-erosion.
Thirteen transverse profi les were selected on gullies where soil sampling
was performed. Sampling was performed on each profi le in the gully
bed, in the left and right banks at two fi xed depths, zone 1, depth 5–10
cm and zone 2, depth of 10–25 cm. Laboratory analyses included tests
of volume weight, specifi c weight, soil particle size distribution, consistent
states and humidity. Parameters porosity and clay activity were also
analysed. Soil sampling and laboratory testing were done in accordance
with SRPS.U.B1 geotechnical testing standards. The comparison of the obtained results was made between the banks and the gully bed, as well
as between the zones using tests: t-test of mean values; W (Mann-Whitney;
Wilcoxon) – median test. Hypothesis testing was performed with a
signifi cance threshold p of 95.0 %. Testing was conducted in the statistical
analysis program Statgraphics centurion XVIII (StatPoint Technologies, Inc.
2019). Comparison of soil parameters in zone 1 had shown a statistically
signifi cant diff erence for percentage of clay and sand, liquid limit, humidity
and clay activity. Results of conducted comparison showed that in
the zone 2, a statistically signifi cant diff erence found for the parameter
percentage of clay and sand, between banks and gully bed soil samples.
While no signifi cant statistical diff erence found for the other parameters.
Analysing the results between zones, a signifi cant statistical diff erence
was found for the gully bed, left and right banks soil samples for the
parameters volume weight (dry and humid) and porosity while for gully
samples there was signifi cant statistical diff erence for liquid limit, plastic
limit, humidity and clay activity. Comparing all samples of the zones 1 and
2, a signifi cant statistical diff erence was found for the parameters volume
weight (dry and humid), porosity, percentage of sand particles, plastic
limit and current humidity.

AB  - Styrene-butadiene (SBR) and acrylonitrile-butadiene (NBR) rubber blends with tetramethyl thiuram disulfide (TMTD) and tetramethyl thiuram monosulfide (TMTS) accelerators and environmentally friendly plasticizers, obtained from PET recycling and biobased resources (LA/PG/PET/EG/LA), were prepared. The mechanical properties of the obtained rubber products were tested and compared with those of commercial dioctyl terephthalate (DOTP). TMTS was prepared by simple and efficient one-pot synthesis from dimethylamine, carbon disulfide, potassium cyanide, and ammonium chloride as catalysts in recycled isopropanol/water azeotrope as solvent. In a comparative study, methoxide, ethoxide, iodide, and amide ions were also used. The two-step reaction mechanism of TMTS synthesis involves the oxidation of the amine salt of dimethyldithiocarbamic acid to TMTD by hydrogen peroxide and sulfur elimination from the TMTD disulfide bond. Potassium cyanide appears to be the most efficient nucleophile. The simplicity of operation, mild reaction conditions, solvent recycling, high yields, and applicability to the industrial level are the advantages of this process. Shore hardness, tensile strength, and compression test results of vulcanized blends before and after aging showed similar properties for both accelerators, while somewhat better results were obtained with LA/PG/PET/EG/LA plasticizer.

Consequently, an analysis of soil erosion risk was carried out in the suburban area of the morphological unit of the Barička river watershed, using the Revised Universal Soil Loss Equation (RUSLE) method, with the existing and projected structure of agricultural production according to the Future Agricultural Production Structure Model from the Aspect of Preserving Land Resources for Mountain Catchment Areas of Serbia (FAPSMS). The value of the existing and projected production structure from an economic aspect was also examined using dynamic economic methods. In order to assess the risk and uncertainty of investments, a sensitive analysis of dynamic methods was carried out. The results show that soil erosion losses are already below tolerance values with the existing production structure and that they could be reduced even more by applying the designed structure. Economic indicators show that the investment is justified and that it is more sensitive to changes in income.

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  - 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  - Urban forests are important part of cities’ green infrastructure, especially in cities with
great anthropogenic pressure as Belgrade is. Urban green areas enable people to connect
with nature and contribute to livability in cities, but some studies reported soil
pollution particularly with heavy metals.
Due to that, soil samples from Avala Mt,. and Byford’s and Zvezdara Forests were
collected from 15 sites and three depths (0-10 cm, 10-20 cm and 20-40 cm), making
a total of 45 analyzed samples. Among all analysis, content of microelements was
measured for the purposes of this research. No significant changes were observed
comparing sites or depths and among all measured elements Zn was the most and
Hg the least abundant. Analysis of microelements in soil showed that sustainable soil
quality Ni levels are exceeded in all samples, while Cr, Cd and Co levels only in some.
All of these results can be explained by forests’ age, geological origin and anthropogenic
origin and influence. Even though due to Serbian Soil Quality Regulation no remediation is required for now, in the light of predicted climate change, regular monitoring and assessment should be done to display soil quality and to maintain or improve urban forests sustainability.

AB  - Climate-Smart Forestry in mountain regions is an approach that can help to realize
potential of the forest sector to contribute to climate change mitigation and to identify
new principles and measures to reap this potential. These new measures and criteria
include identification of key soil characteristics of beech forests in Europe. Total of 80
soil samples from 15 soil profiles were collected from beech forests of Spain, Czech
Republic, Slovakia, Germany, Poland, Romania, Serbia, Italy, Bosnia and Herzegovina
and Slovenia. Methodology used for soil analyses: electrical conductivity (EC) and pH
(measured by portable meters), content of organic carbon (Corg – elemental analyser),
grain size distribution (pipet analysis), content of major and minor minerals determined
by XRF and ICP-OEC. Also concentrations of anions were determined by ionchromatogarphy.
The average content of organic carbon in tested soils is 2.4%. The
highest concentrations are found in soils on limestones than on granite rocks and lowest
concentrations on soils developed on sandstones. Concentrations of carbonate and
sulphate anions are also highest in limestone soils, while phosphate and nitrate ions
do not show variation with bedrock type. From the obtained results it can be concluded
that the bedrock has strong influence on soil properties. The obtained differences are
reflected in the depth of soil profiles, structure of aggregates and physico-chemical
composition. The results of this study will help in the definition of climate-smart forestry
and identification of “smartness” criteria for the European beech forests.

AB  - Soil is recognized as an excellent sink for polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs).
At forest stands, this effect is enhanced by the canopy scavenging of trees, which increases
pollutant fluxes from air to soil, e.g. by litter fall. Soil samples of 37 mountain
beech forests from 11 European countries (Bosnia and Herzegovina, Bulgaria, Czech
Republic, Germany, Italy, Poland, Romania, Serbia, Slovakia, Slovenia and Spain) were
analysed for concentrations of polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) in two sampling
depths (0 - 40, 40 – 80 cm). A Quick, Easy, Cheap, Effective, Rugged and Safe
(QuEChERS) method was applied forthe simultaneous analysis of 16 PAHs (Kim et al.,
2019). High-performance liquid chromatography with diode array detector (HPLC–
DAD) analyses of PAH-containing extracts were carried out on an Agilent 1100 Series
chromatograph.
This study’s main objectives were (i) to study the PAHs occurrence in mountain forest
soils across Europe, and (ii) to decipher the processes behind potential variability in
depth distribution, considering both PAH fingerprints and concentrations.
The total concentrations of Σ16 PAHs in the surface layer (0–40 cm) and sublayer
soils (40–80 cm) ranged from 271.52 - 1154.52 and 318.95 - 1052.54 μg/kg, with
a median of 580.79 and 604.53μg/kg, respectively. There is no statistically significant
difference between groups. The 4-ring and 5-ring PAHs were the most prominent components
in all samples. The concentration of Σ16 EPA PAHs did not exceed the precautionary values set by the soil quality guidelines.

AB  - The objectives of this research were to investigate the concentration; characterize the
distribution; and determine the sources of heavy metals in European mountain beech
forest soils. Total of 37 soil samples were collected from 11 countries (Bosnia and Herzegovina,
Bulgaria, Czech Republic, Germany, Italy, Poland, Romania, Serbia, Slovakia,
Slovenia and Spain). Concentrations of As, Cd, Co, Cr, Cu, Ni, Pb, Zn, and Hg were
in ranges of 0.98-22.98 mg kg-1, 0.99-6.03 mg kg-1, 2.51-26.01 mg kg-1, 4.22-83.42
mg kg-1, 11.25-39.77 mg kg-1, 4.79-56.34 mg kg-1, 1.38-91.76 mg kg-1, 32.50-252.20
mg kg-1, 0.20-5.07 mg kg-1, respectively. Hotspots of heavy metals were observed in
luvisol and rendzina soils developed on carbonate bedrock. Multivariate analyses discriminated
between component 1 with a large positive associations of As, Cd, Cr, Zn,
Hg, Pb, CaCO3, Corganic, pH, EC, Mg, and Ca and component 2 with a large positive
associations of Co, Cr, Cu, Ni, clay, Al, and Fe. Positive matrix factorization Factor 1
was defined by As, Pb, and Zn, Cu and Hg provided similar contributions for Factors
1 and 2. Cd, Co, Cr, and Ni provided the highest percentage contributions for Factor
2. Pollution index, Enrichment factor of Cr, Hg, As, Pb, Ni, Cd, Cu, Zn, and Co ranges:
0.05–1.17, 4.48–246.63, 0.01–3.21, 0.06–2.97, 0.18–3.40, 4.30–81.62, 0.56–3.20,
0.52–3.83 and 0.21–3.81, respectively.

forest soils. Total of 37 soil samples were collected from 11 countries (Bosnia and Herzegovina,
Bulgaria, Czech Republic, Germany, Italy, Poland, Romania, Serbia, Slovakia,
Slovenia and Spain). Concentrations of As, Cd, Co, Cr, Cu, Ni, Pb, Zn, and Hg were
in ranges of 0.98-22.98 mg kg-1, 0.99-6.03 mg kg-1, 2.51-26.01 mg kg-1, 4.22-83.42
mg kg-1, 11.25-39.77 mg kg-1, 4.79-56.34 mg kg-1, 1.38-91.76 mg kg-1, 32.50-252.20
mg kg-1, 0.20-5.07 mg kg-1, respectively. Hotspots of heavy metals were observed in
luvisol and rendzina soils developed on carbonate bedrock. Multivariate analyses discriminated
between component 1 with a large positive associations of As, Cd, Cr, Zn,
Hg, Pb, CaCO3, Corganic, pH, EC, Mg, and Ca and component 2 with a large positive
associations of Co, Cr, Cu, Ni, clay, Al, and Fe. Positive matrix factorization Factor 1
was defined by As, Pb, and Zn, Cu and Hg provided similar contributions for Factors
1 and 2. Cd, Co, Cr, and Ni provided the highest percentage contributions for Factor
2. Pollution index, Enrichment factor of Cr, Hg, As, Pb, Ni, Cd, Cu, Zn, and Co ranges:
0.05–1.17, 4.48–246.63, 0.01–3.21, 0.06–2.97, 0.18–3.40, 4.30–81.62, 0.56–3.20,
0.52–3.83 and 0.21–3.81, respectively.",

AB  - Landslides can be triggered by different factors including changeable
weather conditions, prolonged heavy rains, complex terrain, traffic loads, etc. This paper deals
with the problem of landslide rehabilitation on the Stolice-Krupanj regional road that resulted
from vehicle loads and soil saturated with water. The technical measures used in the
rehabilitation of the landslide included a concrete retaining wall and a geogrid-reinforced soil
structure. Based on data related to soil obtained from laboratory tests, slope stability before
and after applying rehabilitation measures was tested in the GEO5 Geotechnical software. The
stability of the concrete wall was examined analytically by calculating the factors of safety
against toppling and horizontal displacement. Both technical measures of given physicalmechanical
properties increased the stability of the slope.
AB  - Na pojavu klizišta mogu uticati mnogi faktori: promenljivi klimatski uslovi; velika količina padavina u kratkom periodu; složenost strukture terena; opterećenja od saobraćaja, itd. Rad se bavi problemom sanacije klizišta na regionalnom putu Stolice - Krupanj, koje je nastalo usled opterećenja od vozila i zasićenja zemljišta vodom. Tehničke mere koje su primenjene za sanaciju klizišta su: betonski potporni zid i potporna konstrukcija od tla i geomreže. Na osnovu podataka o zemljištu iz laboratorijskih ispitivanja izvršene su provere stabilnosti kosina pre i posle primenjenih mera sanacije u programu GEO5, dok je stabilnost betonskog zida ispitivana analitičkim proračunom faktora sigurnosti na prevrtanje i horizontalno pomeranje. Obe tehničke mere, zadatih fizičko mehaničkih karakteristika, povećale su stabilnost padine.
