U radu su analizirane povijesne izmjerene razine podzemne vode u piezometrima zagrebačkoga i samoborsko-zaprešićkoga vodonosnika od sedamdesetih godina prošloga stoljeća do danas. U analizu su ...uključene i starije karte razina podzemne vode koje datiraju iz šezdesetih godina prošloga stoljeća, a koje daju dodatan uvid u povijesno stanje razina podzemne vode. Analizom postojećega stanja i povijesnih razina podzemne vode identificirane su promjene razina na pojedinim dijelovima vodonosnika, s posebnim osvrtom na događaje koji su tijekom vremena doveli do usporavanja negativnoga trenda razina podzemne vode na pojedinim dijelovima vodonosnika. Najvažniji takvi događaji u posljednjih pedesetak godina jesu izgradnja praga TE-TO u rijeci Savi kod termoelektrane toplane Zagreb te pojave hidrološki natprosječno povoljnih godina kao što su bile 2013./2014., a na koje je dan poseban osvrt. Analizom je utvrđeno da su razine podzemne vode zagrebačkoga i samoborsko-zaprešićkoga vodonosnika danas općenito niže za oko 3 do 6 m u odnosu na povijesno stanje razina iz šezdesetih godina prošloga stoljeća.
Energetski potencijal površinskih vodotoka na krškom terenu Dinarida, koji se u širokom pojasu proteže uz hrvatsku obalu, većim je dijelom iskorišten. Međutim, značajni dio voda koje se akumuliraju u ...krškom podzemlju ovoga velikog prostora, do danas nije adekvatno energetski vrednovan. Na osnovi rezultata opsežnih geoloških, hidrogeoloških, hidroloških, strukturno tektonskih, geofizičkih, geotehničkih i ostalih istraživanja izrađen je projekt HE Ombla čija je posebnost da se koristi vodom podzemnih akumulacija, stvorenih izgradnjom podzemne brane te čiji su svi objekti također smješteni u podzemlju. Izdizanjem vodozahvata iz zone baznog toka u zonu usporenog tečenja eliminiraju se uzroci povremenog onečišćenja, a u budućnosti i trajnijeg zagađenja pitke vode.
Twelve districts of the state of West Bengal, India are affected by arsenic (As) and millions of individuals are consuming As-contaminated groundwater. The probable adverse effects of As on pregnancy ...outcome (stillbirth and miscarriage) are yet to be properly studied. The present investigation is an attempt to understand the effects of As exposure on the pregnancy outcome in Bengali women exposed to As through drinking water and residing in different villages in North 24 Parganas District of West Bengal. The results show a significantly higher rate of stillbirths and miscarriages than those in the unexposed population.
Arsenu (As) iz podzemnih voda izloženi su milijuni ljudi koji žive u dvanaest administrativnih jedinica Zapadnoga Bengala u Indiji. Njegovo štetno djelovanje na ishod trudnoće (mrtvorođenja i spontane pobačaje) tek treba kvalitetno dokumentirati. Istražen je utjecaj izloženosti arsenu na ishod trudnoće u bengalskih žena koje su mu bile izložene putem pitke vode, a stanovnice su različitih sela u administrativnoj jedinici North 24 Parganas savezne države Zapadni Bengal. Rezultati istraživanja pokazali su značajno veću učestalost mrtvorođenja i spontanih pobačaja u žena izloženih arsenu u odnosu na neizloženu skupinu.

Safeguarding Drinking WaterLjubljana's water resources lie in the immediate vicinity of built-up urban areas or even below them. For decades, they have been safeguarded as water-protection areas, ...which are specified by implementing regulations. However, formal protection through regulations is insufficient if the goal is to manage these sources in a sustainable manner. One of the most important goals of sustainable management is maintaining suitable provision of fresh drinking water without using any technological procedures to
A good knowledge of the natural and cultural heritage of karst is a precondition for the rational planning of life on it. We try to organize the knowledge to make it as useful as possible for ...planners. We are involved in individual projects related to the regional planning, water supply systems, the construction of transportation infrastructure, the closure of landfills in karst areas, the collection of data on karst caves and their protection, karst ecology and determining the extent of human influence on the karst underground. A new book series Karstology and development challenges on karst was designed to present the results of completed and new projects to a broader public.The first book with the subtitle Water contains selected directly applicable research studies on karst waters, their characteristics, endangerment, and protection. It is composed of ten chapters, which can be grouped into three main themes. In the introduction the importance, characteristics and vulnerability of karst aquifers are presented,then various case studies of pollution and endangerment are described (traffic, landfills, military objects, flooding), and at the end some guidelines for the protection of karst water sources are summarized. The book is a bilingual publication in Slovene and English. It is aimed at a broad circle of users, researchers, students and planners.
The second book in the new collection Karstology in Development Challenges in the Karst brings together the findings obtained in planning and construction of motorways in the Karst. More than 350 new ...caves were opened up in the final wave of construction. This was followed by studies on arranging karstic features for tourism and their management. We also selected studies on karstic ecology, in which we made use of biological and microbiological research. At the end there is a summary of everything we need to take into account in planning different encroachments in karstic areas.
