Abstract

Research results define basis for specific monitoring programs of groundwater quality in wetland eco-systems in Serbia and Croatia. The main pur­pose of the research was to determine the impact of nonpoint diffuse source pollution on the groundwater quality, as well as seasonal variations on the con­centration levels of selected physicochemical parameters. Statistical analyses, PCA, HCA, ANOVA and t-test, encompass 18 monitored parameters in ground­water. Statistical data indicated that protected area in Serbia has a sig­ni­ficantly higher load of pollution from agricultural activities compared to Wet­lands Tom­po­jevci. The highest load in groundwater was detected from total nitrogen, ammonia and nitrogen anions, indicating contamination of ground­water by nit­ro­gen-based fertilizers. The results obtained within the two-year seasonal moni­toring program, from 2018 to 2020, are highly essential for achieving a com­prehensive database that could be used as platform for high-quality groundwater management in selected protected areas with the aim of minimizing environ­mental pollution.
