『Abstract
The objective of the investigations of the Cetina River, located
in southern Croatia, was to record specific characteristics and
properties of the Cetina waters at nine stations. In addition
to measurements undertaken in the Cetina River, the water quality
of its most significant springs and tributaries, such as Kosinac,
Silovka(Sの頭にv), Studenci and Mala Ruda, Velika
Ruda and Grab, has also been measured. The water quality in the
Cetina watershed has been evaluated in the following storage reservoirs:
Peruca(cの頭にv), Busko(sの頭にv)
Blato and Prancevici(最初のcの頭にv、後のcの頭に´). The
nitrogen compounds and phosphorus concentrations have been estimated
at all these sampling sites over a 3-year period (2005-2008).
Concentration levels at the Cetina-Vinalic(cの頭に´)
sampling site for total N (from August 2005 to December 2008)
ranged from 0 to 1.759 mg/L, for NH3-N from
0 to 0.374 mg/L, for NO3-N from 0.063 to
0.916 mg/L and for PO4-P from 0 to 0.099
mg/L. The results prove that the Cetina-Vinalic(cの頭に´)
sampling site is not polluted by nitrogen and phosphorus compounds.
The river section from Trilj to the Prancevici(最初のcの頭にv、後のcの頭に´)
dam, where the water is used for the water supply of Omis(sの頭にv), Makarska and Dalmatian islands, has been
polluted by wastewater because the majority of agricultural area,
roads, industry and settlements are located upstream of it. The
highest concentration for total N of 1.128 mg/L and of 1,527 total
coliforms in 100 mL, expressed as a mean value for a 3-year period
of investigations, was found at the sampling site Trilj. The results
of concentration changes at the Cikotina(Cの頭にv)
Lada(dの頭に-を重ねる) and Cetina Radmanove Mlinice
sampling sites show no regularities. The highest concentration
for total N of 0.941 mg/L was measured at the Cetina Radmanove
Mlinice during 2007. The highest concentration for NO3-N
of 0.916 mg/L was measured at the same sampling site. According
to the investigations of the water quality of the Cetina springs
and tributaries, the bacteriological most polluted river spring
is Kosinac, and the bacteriological most polluted river tributary
is Grab. With reference to the water quality in the Cetina storage
reservoirs, it may be concluded that the lowest quality standard
has been found within the Prancevici(最初のcの頭にv、後のcの頭に´)
storage reservoir regarding nitrogen compounds and phosphorus
concentration levels.
