AB  - Microplastic (MP) accumulation in soil may have a detrimental impact on soil quality and biota . The goal of this study was to reveal the impact of microplastic particles on soil chemical . physical and biological characteristics . Alluvial soils from three main river basins (Danube , Morava and Sava) most affected by seasonal flooding were selected in Serbia . Two type of land use were studied: forest soil (MP polluted and non-polluted) and agricultural soil (plastic greenhouse and open crop production) . Soil was sampled from two depths 0-15 and 15-30 cm in 2022 . Soil electrical conductivity (EC), pH, CEC, content of total carbon , nitrogen, P205, K20,
Cu, Zn, Mn and CaC03, particle size distribution , volumetric mass, specific mass and porosity,
basal respiration and microbial activity measured by alkaline trap method were analyzed . The values of EC and pH were higher in all soil samples from plastic greenhouses compared to the control samples in both depths at both sites, while the measured values of CEC, carbon, nitrogen, P20s. and KiO were higher in samples from the control arable soils . The content of CaCQ3 was higher in the samples from the greenhouse compared to the control at both depths at the site in the Sava basin, while it wasn't significantly different in the samples from the Danube basin. The content of Cu, Zn and Mn was higher in the control samples at both depths in both sites, except for the sample from a depth of 15-30 cm from the location in the Danube basin where the Mn content is higher in the greenhouse. No significant difference in volumetric mass between the samples from the greenhouse and the control samples at both sites was detected. However, the specific mass, porosity, and particles > 0.02 mm were higher in the soil from the greenhouse at both sites . The microbial activity expressed by soil respiration at the Sava basin wasn't significantly different between the plastic house and control arable soil. On the contrary, in the Danube valley respiration was by 78% higher in the control samples compared to the samples from the plastic house. In all studied sites soil chemical and biological properties were significantly affected by the presence of plastic materials in plastic greenhouses . Generally , polluted sites showed elevated microbial respiration and the rates of C mineralization. Wild mixed waste deposits contain a variety of organic substrates including microplastics , which are organic polymers. They can serve as a source of organic carbon for soil microorganisms under laboratory-controlled conditions with optimal temperature and humidity. The changes in soil physical parameters are obviously due to the presence of plastic particles. Further study of differences in the activity of soil microorganisms in polluted and unpolluted areas is necessary in order to identify the threshold level of MP pollution for the optimal amount and activity of soil biota, as well as for soil health and fertility

AB  - Microplastic (MP) pollution is recognized as one of the biggest environmental problems due to multiple
direct and indirect negative impacts on the environment. Existing research indicate that the presence of MP
in the soil affects the organic matter cycle and the energy flow of terrestrial ecosystems, thus also the global
production of CO2, climate, plant communities, crop production and biodiversity. There are even fewer
studies dealing with the impact of MP on forest soil ecosystems. One of the first researches of the MP in the
soil on the territory of Serbia is currently underway and is being carried out within the project Evaluation of
the Microplastic in the Soils of Serbia - EMIPLAST - SoS. The research aimed to access the impact of MP on
soil’s main chemical, physical and biological properties by comparing polluted and non-polluted forest sites
in the three largest alluvial plains in Serbia – Danube, Sava and Morava. Statistically significantly higher
values of electrical conductivity and pH were measured in samples from polluted localities compared to
unpolluted ones; while C, N and CEC were measured significantly higher in samples from unpolluted sites.
Particles > 0.02 mm were significantly higher in all samples from polluted sites compared to non-polluted.
Changed environmental conditions have an effect on the decomposition by soil microorganisms. Estimates
of potentially mineralizable carbon and mineralization rate are statistically significantly higher at polluted
sites compared to unpolluted ones in all three alluvial plains. These results support the viewpoints that can
be found in the literature, namely that the presence of MP in the soil affects the cycle of organic carbon and
CO2 emissions. Also, differences in estimates between polluted and unpolluted forest sites indicate that
microbial communities may be using MP particles as an additional food source. In order to establish the
level of the impact of MP on soil properties and microbial activity in the longer term, the study is ongoing.

AB  - Phytoremediation stands as a crucial tool for addressing pollution, yet its application in Europe remains inadequately explored. Taking Serbia as a test case, this literature review delves into the state of knowledge regarding phytoremediation, exploring the regional distribution of contaminated sites, the prevalence of analysed contaminants, and the diversity of plant species employed for phytoremediation. Analysis revealed 24 distinct locations, 11 sampling parts, scrutiny of 24 potential toxic elements (PTEs) and nutrients, and the involvement of 65 plant species. Predominantly, research sites were associated with industrial areas, particularly mining sites. The efficacy of various plants varied across multiple factors, with soil, roots, and leaves emerging as the most frequently sampled components in reviewed manuscripts. Notably, the scientific literature emphasized Cu, Zn, Cd, and Pb as the most frequently studied PTEs in the context of phytoremediation. This review underscores the need for increased attention to phytoremediation research in Serbia, advocating a more widespread and intensive exploration, both geographically and in research efforts. The compilation of plant species employed for phytoremediation offers valuable insights into the effectiveness of particular species in distinct phytoremediation practices.

AB  - Background: Anthropogenic activities have clearly affected the environment, with irreversible and destructive consequences. Mining activities have a significant negative impact, primarily on soil, and then on human health. The negative impact of the first mining activities is represented even today in the soils of those localities. Research shows that, for different types of mines, the concentrations of potentially toxic elements (PTEs) are high, especially in antimony, multi-metal and lead-zinc mines, which have adverse effects on the environment and then on human health and the economy. A large flood in 2014 in Western Serbia resulted in the breaking of the dam of the processed antimony ore dump of the former antimony mine, causing toxic tailings to spill and pollute the downstream area. Due to this accident, tailings material flooded the area downstream of the dump, and severely affected the local agriculture and population. Methods: Potentially toxic elements content, pollution indices and health indices were determined in soil samples from the flooded area, using referenced methodologies. The sources and routes of pollutants and risks were determined and quantified using statistical principal component analysis, positive matrix factorisation, and a Monte Carlo simulation. Results: The main source of As, Cd, Hg, Pb, Sb and Zn in the upper part of the study area was the tailing material. Based on the pollution indices, about 72% of the studied samples show a high risk of contamination and are mainly distributed immediately downstream of the tailings dump that was spilled due to heavy rainfall. Conclusions: Although the content of the PTEs is high, there is no non-carcinogenic risk for any PTEs except As, for which a threshold risk was determined. There is no carcinogenic risk in the study area.

AB  - Soil degradation is a global problem and researchers are facing the challenge of assessing the scale, trends, and consequences of contributing processes. With this in mind, this study implemented the new concept of multiple soil degradation indices (MSDI) for the first time in the region of Sumadija and Western Serbia (SWS). This concept enables the simultaneous integration of several environmental components that can act separately or synergistically and offers concrete answers and information on the state and distribution of physical (PSDI), chemical (CSDI) and biological (BSDI) soil degradation. Using several different geospatial-modelled approaches, results indicated that physical degradation was the greatest contributor to soil degradation in the SWS region with an impact of 55%, followed by chemical degradation at 16%, while biological degradation only had a 6% impact. The dominant indicator of physical degradation was the vegetation cover management factor with an impact of approximately 58%, while for chemical degradation it was soil organic matter, with a relative impact of almost 49%. Total microflora and total number of fungi were the most significant biological indicators with an average impact of approximately 43%. In addition, this study indicated that about 59% of the region is currently degraded, with about 44% of it classified as moderately degraded. The results of this study offer new insights into the geospatial dynamics of interactive degradation processes in Serbia and can form the basis for strengthening scientific, expert, and political support when implementing international and national policies concerned with protecting soil from degradation.

This concept enables the simultaneous integration of several environmental components that can act separately or synergistically and offers concrete answers and information on the state and distribution of physical (PSDI), chemical (CSDI) and biological (BSDI) soil degradation. Using several different geospatial-modelled approaches, results indicated that physical degradation was the greatest contributor to soil degradation in the SWS region with an impact of 55%, followed by chemical degradation at 16%, while biological degradation only had a 6% impact. The dominant indicator of physical degradation was the vegetation cover management factor with an impact of approximately 58%, while for chemical degradation it was soil organic matter, with a relative impact of almost 49%. Total microflora and total number of fungi were the most significant biological indicators with an average impact of approximately 43%. In addition, this study indicated that about 59% of the region is currently degraded, with about 44% of it classified as moderately degraded. The results of this study offer new insights into the geospatial dynamics of interactive degradation processes in Serbia and can form the basis for strengthening scientific, expert, and political support when implementing international and national policies concerned with protecting soil from degradation.",

AB  - This paper aims to improve the methodology and results accuracy of MEDALUS model for assessing land degradation sensitivity through the application of different data detail levels and by introducing the application of Ellenberg indices in metrics related to vegetation drought sensitivity assessment. For that purpose, the MEDALUS model was applied at 2 levels of detail. Level I (municipality level) implied the use of available large-scale databases and level II (watershed) contains more detailed information about vegetation used in the calculation of the VQI and MQI factors (Fig. S6). The comparison was made using data based on CORINE Land Cover (2012) and forest inventory data, complemented with object-based classification. Results showed that data based on forest inventory data with the application of Ellenberg's indices and object-based classification have one class more, critical (C1 and C2) and that the percentage distribution of classes is different in both quantitative (area size of class sensitivity) and qualitative (aggregation and dispersion of sensitivity classes). The use of data from Forest Management Plans and the application of Ellenberg's indices affect the quality of the results and find its application in the model, especially if these results are used for monitoring and land area management on fine scales. Remote sensed data images (Sentinel-2B) were introduced into the methodology as a very important environmental monitoring tool and model results validation.

AB  - The structure and function of many forest ecosystems will be modified as a result of air pollution and climate change. Norway spruce (Picea abies L.) forests are among the first terrestrial ecosystems to respond to this change. We analysed how changes in climate and environmental factors will affect vegetation cover in Norway spruce forests and whether it is possible to assemble a list of diagnostically important/sensitive species that would be the first to react to changes in habitats of Norway spruce in Central Balkan. Significant changes in the vegetation cover of Norway spruce forests are mainly influenced by temperature increases (approximate to 4 degrees C), and precipitation decreases (approximate to 102 mm) by the end of the 21st century. Projections show that vegetation cover changes and future habitat conditions for Norway spruce forests on podzolic brown soils with a low base saturation and soil pH decreases, and temperature growth and precipitation decline, with the worst in the Rodope montane forest ecoregion. In Dinaric Mountain and Balkan mixed forest ecoregions, the range of natural occurrence of Norway spruce forest will shift to higher altitudes, or to the north. One of the cognitions of this paper is that, through available environmental models and their indices, species from the IUCN Red List should be recognised more properly and included in model calculations.

AB  - Land degradation is a complex issue caused by diverse drivers, each of which should be considered in the analysis of land sensitivity to degradation. This study identifies the areas most sensitive to land degradation in the Grdelica Gorge and Vranjska Valley, which are unique in terms of natural and socioeconomic conditions. Land-use changes and inappropriate land management have led to serious degradation in this region. The flexible and multifactorial approach of the Mediterranean Desertification and Land Use (MEDALUS) model allowed comprehensive land degradation sensitivity analysis in the study area. The main factors driving soil degradation were assessed by estimating climate quality index, soil quality index, and vegetation quality index, and the main socioeconomic indicators by management quality index and social quality index. The results showed that forest cover is the main factor to contrast land degradation, and even minor adverse changes in forest characteristics, such as structure, canopy cover, health, and quality, could trigger degradation processes. The vegetation quality index was defined in terms of the current vegetation???s capacity to protect soil from erosion, drought resistance, and fire risk. Detailed data on forest vegetation cover was obtained from the National Forest Inventory (NFI). The environmentally sensitive area (ESA) index generated through the analysis classified 26.11% of the total study area as critical, 69.53% as fragile, and 2.70% as either prone to or unaffected by degradation processes. According to the ESA index, the areas covered by forests with optimal species composition and high canopy cover were the least susceptible to degradation. The areas under intensive agricultural production without any application of conservation measures were the most susceptible to degradation. Future strategies for optimal land-use patterns are discussed, such as the intergration of woody species in croplands to protect soil against degradation and meet human needs in the areas prone to degradation.

AB  - Ultramafic (serpenites) are a group of igneous or metamorphic rocks, which are characterized by high concentrations of Mg, Fe, Ni, Cr, and Co, along with low concentrations of Ca, P, and K, contain less than 45% silicon (SiO2). Tara Mountain is natural good of western Serbia where areas under serpentinites occupy 28%. Researchers agree that the flora of serpentine areas is unique and botanically very important. The specificity of the flora and the development of vegetation on serpentinites are characterized by special mechanisms of plant species adaptation to increased concentrations of some heavy metals in the soil with low content of essential elements (nutrients). This paper examines the influence of serpentinite geological substrate on the occurrence of certain plant species in the initial stages of plant community development. The soil was mainly sampled in rock crevices in the early phases of soil development (Lithosols) where the influence and origin of the metals from the rock can be considered the most obvious. Content of cadmium (Cd) and lead (Pb) in geological substratum, soil and plants biomass is analysed in order to differentiate levels and extents of natural and anthropogenic pollution and also deposition data from the EMEP program (European Monitoring and Evaluation Programme). Results show that the content of lead and cadmium in the soil and plant samples are higher than the content in the corresponding rock sample, except for two soil samples, in which the content of Cd is lower. Thissuggest that the origin of the increased Pb and Cd content might be from anthropogenic sources. Deposition (data from EMEP program) of Cd and Pb, which was analysed for the period from 1990-2018, indicate significant cumulative effect. The values of cumulative deposition in research area have a value of 91,51 kg/km2 lead, while the value of cadmium is 1665 g/km2 , which classifies NP Tara in above-average polluted area in R.

AB  - Diffuse water pollution from agriculture (DWPA) is one of the major factors causing water pollution in Lakes Palic and Ludas, the two largest shallow lakes of the Pannonian Basin in Serbia. These two lakes are protected under national and international law. On the basis of the number of strictly protected bird species, Ludas Lake has been classified as a wetland of international importance since 1977 (Ramsar site 3YU002); in 2021, both lakes were nominated as potential Natura 2000 areas. Despite the degree of protection and ecological significance of the area, agricultural land prevails. By a process of land expropriation during 2019, the buffer zone began to expand around the lakes, which should lead to a reduction in pollution. One of the goals of buffer-zone development is to enhance and restore the ecological connectivity of the remaining forest-steppe habitats. During the expropriation process, soil was sampled to record areas with the highest pollution. This paper assesses the environmental risk caused by phosphorus, nitrogen, and the accumulation of heavy metals (Zn, Cu, Pb, Cr, Ni, Mn, Cd, and Hg). For each heavy metal, the corresponding pollution indices (Igeo, PI, EF, Eri, RI, Nemerow) and soil contamination level were calculated. Pollution indices indicate the ecological risk under the influence of heavy metals in the following order: Cd  gt  Cu  gt  Ni  gt  Zn  gt  Pb  gt  Cr  gt  Hg. Results showed that concentrations of Cd exceeded the maximal permissible concentration in all examined soil samples, and high ecological risk areas were determined. High concentrations of nitrogen, phosphorus, and potassium were detected, which could be as a result of intensive agricultural activity. Current conservation measures in this area have not provided adequate protection of the natural environment. Accordingly, existing measures must be controlled or new, more restrictive measures must be prescribed.

AB  - Soil erosion represents one of the most severe soil degradation processes. Approximately 65% of Serbia is affected by erosion of different intensities. In the Polomska River catchment, which is a typical torrential area, the assessment of soil erosion was conducted, and soil loss was determined using USLE and WaTEM/SEDEM model. The average annual soil loss by USLE is 11.19 t.ha(-1) yr(-1), while soil loss by WaTEM model is 13.37 t.ha(-1) yr(-1), which is in accordance with mean values for Europe. Supervised classification was performed on SENTINEL 10m resolution satellite, in order to obtain land use classes. Based on these classes, soil loss values, were compared, according to different erosion intensity categories. Analysing the intensity categories inside specific land use class, the models give different and uneven results. The most evident difference of estimated soil loss, are in the class of agricultural soil, and generally, WaTEM gives higher values, in all the categories.

AB  - Wind erosion is one of the most significant forms of land degradation which occurs in arid and semi-arid regions. Agricultural land is significantly affected by wind erosion, which leads to soil quality reduction, and consequently to economic losses. This research was conducted in the autonomous province (AP) of Vojvodina (a region dominated by agriculture), which represents one of the most important economic regions in the Republic of Serbia. The aim of this research was to identify areas sensitive to wind erosion (in the month of March) in the AP Vojvodina by using fuzzy logic, remote sensing data, and geographical information systems (GIS). The data of prior research on erosion sediment were used for results validation. The results show that the hazardous sensitivity category covers approximately 60.41% of the research area, while the medium sensitive category accounts for 36% of the area. These findings are primarily a result of the lack of vegetation in almost the entire area, particularly in wind-exposed agricultural areas with no vegetation, which are being prepared for sowing. Another factor putting such a large area at risk is the unfavorable climate (especially in southeastern parts of the area), and slightly less favorable soil properties in the north. The results of this research could be used in decision-making at the regional level, along with the development and implementation of programs aimed at mitigating the effects of wind erosion.

AB  - Grasslands are a major player in the global carbon cycle, although carbon stocks in grasslands are influenced by human activities and natural disturbances. The aim of this study is to determine differences in carbon stock on two test areas of grassland ecosystem in the highlands of Stara Planina and Zlatar Mountains (Serbia). The investigated sites are natural mountain grasslands of the same vegetation community (Agrostietum capillarisPavl. 1955) and soil type (Umbric Leptosol (Dystric) and Haplic Cambisol (Dystric)), but with different grazing intensity. Aboveground and belowground biomasses were measured in each sample plot, and soil was sampled at fixed depths of 0-10, 10-20 and 20-40 cm. The estimation of C stock and the rate of soil C accumulation were determined by the Tier 2 method IPCC (2003). Carbon mineralization potentials were determined via sequential incubation procedure in the laboratory conditions. According to the obtained results, the greater amount of precipitation on Mt. Stara Planina resulted in a greater accumulation of aboveground biomass, which was subjected to a greater decomposition in situ, thus showing a lower amount of PMC in vitro. In addition, potentially mineralizable carbon (PMC) among the sample plots from both sites indicates that the mineralization of soil organic matter was more influenced by the factors related to the soil characteristics, climatic conditions and grazing.

AB  - PurposeRiparian zone contamination is a growing problem for several European catchments due to high anthropogenic pressures. This study investigates As, Cd, Cr, Cu, Ni, Pb, and Zn concentrations in the Sava River riparian zone, characterized by wide agricultural areas, various geological substrates, and different types of industrial pollution. The accumulation and mobility of these elements were studied because they are listed as priority substances in the Water Framework Directive and environmental objectives for surface waters.Materials and methodsSampling was performed during the sampling campaign of the EU 7th FW-funded GLOBAQUA project in September 2015 during a low-water event. Soil samples were collected along the Sava River at 12 selected sampling sites, from a depth of 0-30cm, at a distance of 10-15m from the river bank. The extent of pollution was estimated by determining total and readily soluble element concentrations in the soils. Potential ecological risk and the source of the selected elements in the soils was determined using the enrichment factor (EF), potential ecological risk index (RI), and statistical methods such as the principal component analysis (PCA) and multiple linear regression analysis (MLRA).Results and discussionThis study showed that concentrations of the selected elements increase along the Sava. In terms of origin, PCA and MLRA indicated that Cr and Ni in soils are predominantly lithogenic, while As, Cd, Pb, and Zn are both lithogenic and anthropogenic (ore deposits, industry, and agriculture). PCA singled out Cu since its origin in soil is most probably from specific point-source pollution. EF was generally minor to moderate for most of the examined elements, apart from Cu, for which the EF was significant at one sampling site. Overall ecological risk (RI) fell within the low-risk category for most sites, apart from Belgrade sampling site (BEO), where high total Cd content affected individual and overall ecological risk indicators, indicating Cd could represent a considerable ecological risk for the downstream riparian zone.ConclusionsAt downstream sites, there was a noticeable increase in PTE content, with Cd, Cr, Ni, and Zn exceeding the proposed threshold values for European soils, indicating rising contamination in riparian soils. In terms of the ecological risk, only Cd could pose a potential ecological threat for the downstream riparian zone.

AB  - The raspberry has become a profitable fruit species in the western area of Serbia. By studying the soil in western Serbia, areas have been identified which are suitable for the successful cultivation of raspberries. In the municipality of Ljubovija, based on soil analysis, a 833.04 ha plot for growing raspberries has been established. In recent years the raspberry has played a great role in the local economy. Economic analysis has confirmed the large economic benefits of growing this fruit. Additionally, a Cost/ Benefit analysis has shown the positive effect of raspberry production (1.634). The municipality predicts great social prosperity in the future, and the raspberry has a major role to play in this.

AB  - Field shelterbelts as agroforestry practice provides numerous ecosystem services. Carbon capture and storage potential in biomass and soil is among regulating services shelterbelts provide. Designing shelterbelts to address the various demands and provide services, requests special attention to choosing structural and spatial characteristics of shelterbelts, and species selection for shelterbelts. This paper presents the research results of C storage in 20-years old shelterbelts established on Gleyic Phaeozem in the area of Bačka Palanka (Serbia). Investigated shelterbelts were consisted of the most commonly used species for shelterbelt establishment in Serbia: Siberian elm (Ulmus pumila L.), poplar (Populus x euramericana (Dode) Guin. cv. "Serotina") and black locust (Robinia pseudoacacia L.). The diameter at breast height (d) and the height (h) of all trees in studied shelterbelts were measured. Carbon stock in biomass was estimated according to IPCC (2003) methodology. Soil profiles were opened in studied shelterbelts with soil sampling carried out at fixed depths of 0-10 cm, 10-20 cm and 20-40 cm. Assessment of carbon storage in soil was performed according to IPCC (2003). According to the research results, living biomass C stock in 20-years old Siberian elm and poplar shelterbelts per tree is almost the same 0.333 t per tree and 0.300 t per tree, respectively. In black locust shelterbelt carbon stock is considerable less 0.111 t per tree. However, in species selection for shelterbelts some characteristics should take into account such as adaptability and suitability to the environmental conditions, longevity and their impact on crops that are grown in the sheltered fields, as well as the natural potential vegetation communities of the area. The results of this study indicate that the poplar is preferred species than the Siberian elm in given environmental conditions. The average carbon stock in the soil of studied shelterbelts in a layer 0-40 cm is 9.33 kg m-2 C.

AB  - In urban areas, the presence of toxic microelements in the environment due to the anthropogenic impact (primarily of traffic) poses a serious problem. The negative impact of pollution on populated urban areas is particularly manifest in children. To establish the level of microelement pollution, at 40 localities in the municipality of Stari grad in Belgrade we sampled surface soil near kindergartens and schools during 2013. By applying remote sensing and GIS, small green areas were selected and the spatial distribution of microelements was determined. Because of their different origins and anthropogenic impact, three heavy metals, Cd, Ni and Zn, were examined; the level of soil pollution was assessed by determining their total content, pollution index (Pi), enrichment factor (EF), single risk factor (Ei) and ecological risk index (RI). The highest concentration established was that of Zn, with a mean value of 223.11 mg/kg. The Pi values for Zn (2.96) and Cd (2.98) were similar. Due to the prevailing geological substrate, Ni had the lowest EF (0.75) and Ei (3.09). The effect of the geological substrate on the Ni content was also confirmed by its very high concentration along the banks of the rivers Sava and Danube, while the total contents and factors for Cd and Zn indicated that they were concentrated in the city center. Our results show that 30.72% of the green areas in the city center have a moderate RI, which indicates that the examined pollutants do not present a danger to children.

AB  - The forest formed natural vegetation in most of the study area, but due to settlement it was cleared by cutting and burning. Today, meadows and pastures extend at the site of former forests. Western parts of Zlatibor are covered with conifer forest (forests of scotch pine - Pinus silvestris L., and austrian pine - Pinus nigra Arnold). In addition to the pine forests, which mainly inhabit steeper slopes and poorer, shallower soils, sessile oak (Quercus petraea (Matt.)

Studying of the soils in the area of Zlatibor covered soils on two types of parent rock: serpentine and limestone. Soil properties are primarily conditioned by relief, parent rock type and characteristics, climate, altitude, vegetation type, method of use and the impact of erosion. Also, soil characteristics are significantly influenced by the supply of soil humus, total nitrogen, plant-available P2O5 and K2O as well as trace elements supply. The paper presents the results of the study of basic physical and chemical soil properties, soil classification affiliation, as well as the content of trace elements (zinc - Zn, copper - Cu lead - Pb, cadmium - Cd, nickel - Ni and chromium - Cr).

AB  - This paper presents the results of a research of the ecology of beech and fir forests in the area of Mt. Maljen. Compared to their distribution in the Moesian province, beech and fir forests cover a much larger surface area in the Illyrian province. However, in Serbia this association is mainly distributed sporadically, except on Mt. Goc where it builds a large regional belt. The association of beech and fir occurs on different types of bedrock, ranging from acidic to ultrabasic ones and on a wide variety of soils, including humus-accumulative (mull-rankers) soils, brown (eutric), lessive and diluvial soils. In the site of Divcibare, located in the central part of Mt. Maljen, beech and fir forests occur sporadically. The Maljen mountain massif is predominantly composed of serpentinite and peridotite of Jurassic age, which is a highly specific bedrock in terms of chemical composition, crystal structure, decomposition and other properties, while it also has a strong impact on the genesis and properties of soil. Numerous rock cracks cause rapid water infiltration, leading to dry and warm soils formed on them, especially at the initial stages of soil formation. In addition to that, serpentinite is characterized by calcium deficiency and high concentrations of magnesium, iron, nickel, cobalt and chromium, which has an impact on soil properties and subsequently on the floristic composition. Another property of serpentinite is that it is home to diverse flora and vegetation, with beech and fir forests as one of its segments. The three soil types studied on the serpentinite of Mt. Maljen in this research are illimerized, pseudogleyic and eutric brown soils.

AB  - Biopristupačnost i mobilnost mikroelemenata u zemljištu zavise kako od koncentracije mikroelemenata i njihovih međusobnih odnosa, tako i od svojstava zemljišta i načina korišćenja. U ovom radu cilj je bio da se prikaže sadržaj Pb i Cd u zemljištima livadskih zajednica Agrostietum capillaris (Z. Pavlović 1955) na području Zlatara i Stare planine, njihov faktor translokacije i bioakumulacije. Na proučavanim područjima uzorkovana su zemljišta po fiksnim dubinama, 0-5, 5-10, 10-20 and 20-40 cm u četiri ponavljanja. Sadržaji mikroelemenata mereni su AAS. Sadržaji štetnih mikroelemenata u zemljištu su niži ili su u granicama dozvoljenih graničnih vrednosti. Na osnovu faktora translokacije i faktora biakumulacije zaključuje se o usvajanju Pb i Cd iz zemljišta u ledinu livadske zajednice kao i o premeštanju u nadzemne izdanke.
AB  - The content of microelements in the soil and their accessibility to the plants, depends on various abiotic and biotic factors, but also on certain characteristics of plant species. A high level of translocation and bioaccumulation of some microelements can result from specific forms of metal-organic complexes that are easily transported as well as certain soluble compounds due to organic matter decomposition. The aim of this paper was to determine the degree of uptake, transport and accumulation of Pb and Cd in natural conditions in common bent (Agrostietum capillaris Z. Pavlović 1955) community. Study area were meadow community on the Mt. Stara planina (locality Javor) and Mt. Zlatar (locality Vodena poljana). Soil samples were taken at fixed depths, and physicochemical properties were determined, while parts of aboveground and belowground biomass were taken according to the IPCC methodology. The translocation and bioaccumulation were measured based on factors given by shoot to root ratio of Cd and Pb concentrations in soil, belowground and aboveground biomass. The concentrations of Pb and Cd in the studied soils at both locations are lower than the limit values, but the average Pb content is higher in the area of Zlatar Mt. which is statistically significant. There is a strong correlation between Pb and soil properties on Zlatar Mt, while Cd shows statistically significant relation to soil properties on Stara planina Mt. Pb concentration are higher in belowground biomass compared to the aboveground, with significantly higher concentration on Zlatar Mt. The translocation factor shows that Pb is accumulated in higher content in belowground biomass compared to aboveground, both onland Zlatar Mt, but low values of this factor show that there is no translocation process from root to aboveground biomass. Foliar uptake is also known as the source of toxic microelements, from wet deposition. Although Pb is a metal which is mainly accumulated in the roots, its higher concentrations in the belowground biomass on Zlatar Mt. may be the result of available Pb forms originating from a cross-border deposition. Pb concentration in aboveground biomass is within the limits of natural concentrations both on Stara planina and Zlatar. Cd concentrations are higher in belowground biomass at both sites, compared to aboveground biomass, as indicated by translocation factor, with values  lt 1. The ratio between belowground biomass and soil shows that TF values are significantly gt 1 both on Stara planina and Zlatar Mt., which indicates a high level of Cd uptake by plants and its transport to aboveground biomass. However, foliar uptake is also characteristic for Cd, whereby this element is easily transported to the other parts of plants through various forms of metal-organic compounds, and accumulated in the root. As a proof of that process, the values of bioaccumulation factor are significantly higher than 1 at all profiles except one on Zlatar Mt. which is also confirmed by the strong correlation between the content of Cd in the belowground and aboveground biomass.

abstract = "Biopristupačnost i mobilnost mikroelemenata u zemljištu zavise kako od koncentracije mikroelemenata i njihovih međusobnih odnosa, tako i od svojstava zemljišta i načina korišćenja. U ovom radu cilj je bio da se prikaže sadržaj Pb i Cd u zemljištima livadskih zajednica Agrostietum capillaris (Z. Pavlović 1955) na području Zlatara i Stare planine, njihov faktor translokacije i bioakumulacije. Na proučavanim područjima uzorkovana su zemljišta po fiksnim dubinama, 0-5, 5-10, 10-20 and 20-40 cm u četiri ponavljanja. Sadržaji mikroelemenata mereni su AAS. Sadržaji štetnih mikroelemenata u zemljištu su niži ili su u granicama dozvoljenih graničnih vrednosti. Na osnovu faktora translokacije i faktora biakumulacije zaključuje se o usvajanju Pb i Cd iz zemljišta u ledinu livadske zajednice kao i o premeštanju u nadzemne izdanke., The content of microelements in the soil and their accessibility to the plants, depends on various abiotic and biotic factors, but also on certain characteristics of plant species. A high level of translocation and bioaccumulation of some microelements can result from specific forms of metal-organic complexes that are easily transported as well as certain soluble compounds due to organic matter decomposition. The aim of this paper was to determine the degree of uptake, transport and accumulation of Pb and Cd in natural conditions in common bent (Agrostietum capillaris Z. Pavlović 1955) community. Study area were meadow community on the Mt. Stara planina (locality Javor) and Mt. Zlatar (locality Vodena poljana). Soil samples were taken at fixed depths, and physicochemical properties were determined, while parts of aboveground and belowground biomass were taken according to the IPCC methodology. The translocation and bioaccumulation were measured based on factors given by shoot to root ratio of Cd and Pb concentrations in soil, belowground and aboveground biomass. The concentrations of Pb and Cd in the studied soils at both locations are lower than the limit values, but the average Pb content is higher in the area of Zlatar Mt. which is statistically significant. There is a strong correlation between Pb and soil properties on Zlatar Mt, while Cd shows statistically significant relation to soil properties on Stara planina Mt. Pb concentration are higher in belowground biomass compared to the aboveground, with significantly higher concentration on Zlatar Mt. The translocation factor shows that Pb is accumulated in higher content in belowground biomass compared to aboveground, both onland Zlatar Mt, but low values of this factor show that there is no translocation process from root to aboveground biomass. Foliar uptake is also known as the source of toxic microelements, from wet deposition. Although Pb is a metal which is mainly accumulated in the roots, its higher concentrations in the belowground biomass on Zlatar Mt. may be the result of available Pb forms originating from a cross-border deposition. Pb concentration in aboveground biomass is within the limits of natural concentrations both on Stara planina and Zlatar. Cd concentrations are higher in belowground biomass at both sites, compared to aboveground biomass, as indicated by translocation factor, with values  lt 1. The ratio between belowground biomass and soil shows that TF values are significantly gt 1 both on Stara planina and Zlatar Mt., which indicates a high level of Cd uptake by plants and its transport to aboveground biomass. However, foliar uptake is also characteristic for Cd, whereby this element is easily transported to the other parts of plants through various forms of metal-organic compounds, and accumulated in the root. As a proof of that process, the values of bioaccumulation factor are significantly higher than 1 at all profiles except one on Zlatar Mt. which is also confirmed by the strong correlation between the content of Cd in the belowground and aboveground biomass.",

AB  - Unmet health care needs have been designated as an indicator of equality in access to health care, which provides insight into specific barriers faced by respondents when they need medical services. The purpose of this research was to analyze demographic, socioeconomic, regional characteristics and perception of the health status; and identify predictors of unmet health care needs and consequently determine the size of inequalities in the availability, accessibility and acceptability of health care. The cross-sectional study obtained data from the Survey on Income and Living Conditions in the Republic of Serbia in 2014, based on a sample of 20,069 respondents over 16 years. Data was collected by using a household questionnaire and a questionnaire for individuals. Multivariate logistic regressions were applied. Almost every seventh citizen (14.9%) reported unmet health care needs. Predictors of unmet needs, for overall reasons, which increase the likelihood of their emergence included: self-perceived health status as very bad (OR = 6.37), divorced or widower/widow (OR = 1.31), living in the Sumadija region or Western Serbia (OR = 1.54) and belonging to the age group of 27 to 44 (OR = 1.55) or 45 to 64 years (OR = 1.52). The probability for those least reporting unmet health care needs included female patients (OR = 0.81), those with higher education (OR = 0.77), those who belong to the richest quintile (OR = 0.46) and who are unemployed ( OR = 0.64). Reasons for unmet needs that indicate the responsibility of the health system amounted to 58.2% and reasons which represent preferences of the respondents amounted to 41.7%. The most frequent reason for unmet needs was financial (36.6%), and the wish to wait and see if the problem got better on its own (18.3%). Health policy should adopt a multidimensional approach and develop incentives for the appropriate use of health services and should eliminate barriers which restrict the accessibility and availability.

AB  - This paper studies the assessment of sensitivity to land degradation of Deliblato sands (the northern part of Serbia), as a special nature reserve. Sandy soils of Deliblato sands are highly sensitive to degradation (given their fragility), while the system of land use is regulated according to the law, consisting of three zones under protection. Based on the MEDALUS approach and the characteristics of the study area, four main factors were considered for evaluation: soil, climate, vegetation and management. Several indicators affecting the quality of each factor were identified. Each indicator was quantified according to its quality and given a weighting of between 1.0 and 2.0. ArcGIS 9 was utilized to analyze and prepare the layers of quality maps, using the geometric mean to integrate the individual indicator map. In turn, the geometric mean of all four quality indices was used to generate sensitivity of land degradation status map. Results showed that 56.26% of the area is classified as critical; 43.18% as fragile; 0.55% as potentially affected and 0.01% as not affected by degradation. The values of vegetation quality index, expressed as coverage, diversity of vegetation functions and management policy during the protection regime are clearly represented through correlation coefficient (0.87 and 0.47).

AB  - Invasive plants are one of the major treat to local communities and ecosystems in urban habitats. Aster lanceolatus Wild. is one of the most spreading invasive plant species in Serbia and to examine its impact on soil, flora and aboveground biomass in urban habitats we investigated the pH, electrical conductivity and concentration of trace elements (Zn, Cu, Ni, Mn) in four invaded and four uninvaded plots in urban habitats. We also studied floristic composition and floristic richness regarding these invasive plant populations. These parameters were assessed along transects arranged in the cross shape, running from the centre of the invaded area towards the peripheral uninvaded area. Trace elements were analysed using atomic absorption spectrophotometer. Statistical differences were analysed using ANOVA and post-hoc LSD-tests. The results showed an important decrease of the number of species and herbaceous cover under A. lanceolatus populations. There were no statistically significant differences between invaded and uninvaded patches when soil pH and electrical conductivity were considered. The concentration of Zn, Mn and Ni in the soil was higher in invaded areas. The content of Zn in aboveground biomass collected from invaded compare to uninvaded areas was higher. This study raises the possibility that invasive species changes soil characteristics and create conditions for their spreading.
