AB  - Waterlogging disasters are one of the most severe and widespread agricultural meteorological disasters. They affect about 15% of land surface globally, causing a significant reduction in crop growth and yields. This paper presents an objective methodology for assessing waterlogging risk, primarily in non-urban, predominantly agricultural areas. The waterlogging risk was assessed by evaluating vulnerability and hazard based on key environmental, anthropogenic, and climatic factors. The weights of factors affecting the waterlogging vulnerability were determined using the entropy weight method (EWM), assuring the objectivity of the overall evaluation results. The obtained waterlogging risk map was validated by comparing it with observed and detected waterlogged sites using Sentinel-2 imagery and Random Forest classification. The key novelties of this study are the use of the entropy weight method to objectively determine the relative importance of factors influencing waterlogging vulnerability, and a two-step validation process which includes field-based comparison and remote sensing validation. The presented methodology was demonstrated in the Vojvodina region, Serbia. The following waterlogging vulnerability factors were used: soil properties, geomorphology, surface depressions, average phreatic water table depth, and land cover. The EWM shows that surface depressions and soil properties have the most significant influence on waterlogging vulnerability. The highest waterlogging hazard classes occur in about 31% of the analyzed territory. The waterlogging hazard was estimated based on water balance for the non-vegetation season and maximum daily precipitation in spring, both modeled using the Generalize Extreme Value distribution function. The highest waterlogging hazard classes occur in about 31% of the analyzed territory. The final risk map shows that the high waterlogging risk occurs in about 11% of the territory. Those are mainly areas in the central, eastern, and southeastern parts of the Vojvodina region, usually along the main watercourses. High agreement between the detected waterlogged areas and the produced waterlogging risk map was achieved, validating the proposed methodology. The presented waterlogging risk assessment methodology is valuable for planning and policy-making for various water management and environmental activities. Although it is demonstrated in Vojvodina, by selecting the appropriate factors of vulnerability and hazard, it can be applied to any other region.

AB  - The aim of this study was to confirm the presence of bacteria that are partly responsible for the oak dieback phenomenon, known as Acute Oak Decline, in Serbia. Seventeen symptomatic oak trees (both Quercus robur and Quercus cerris) were sampled in April 2024 and analysed using multiplex real-time PCR. Brenneria goodwinii was detected in one tree from Morović, whereas Gibbsiella quercinecans was found in two trees from Morović and Progar. This is the first report of these bacteria in Serbia, despite bioclimatic models predicting a low likelihood of their presence in the Balkans. Our results indicate the presence of oak dieback bacteria in areas where they have not yet been reported, highlighting the need for increased research and awareness of bacterial diseases in forest trees.

AB  - The bioactivity of the Ailanthus altissima crude leaf extract (CLE) and a leaf extract incorporated into a biopolymer matrix (BPM) was tested against Lymantria dispar larvae. The crude leaf extracts and those incorporated into a chitosan–gelatin polymer matrix were examined in choice and non-choice assays at 0.01, 0.05, 0.5, and 1% concentrations for feeding deterrent activity, contact, and digestive toxicity. The CLE exhibited moderate deterrent activity at all concentrations, whereas the BPM showed a very strong deterrent effect at 0.5% and 1% and a strong effect at 0.1% and 0.01%. No significant differences in digestive or contact toxicity were observed between the CLE and BPM groups and the control groups. The BPM also influenced larval behavior after digestion, decreasing consumption and growth and increasing development time. The higher bioactivity of the CLE compared to the control group is attributed to its high content of total phenols, flavonoids, and tannins, whereas the enhanced bioactivity of the BPM is due to its incorporation into the biopolymer matrix. Given its very strong deterrent activity, and absence of contact and digestive toxicity, the BPM can be recommended as a potential environmentally friendly bioproduct for forest pest control after field evaluation.

AB  - Erosion is a significant environmental challenge in Serbia, shaped by natural
and human factors. Pronounced relief, fragile geological substrate, a developed hydrographic network, and a climate characterized by an uneven distribution of precipitation
throughout the year make this area prone to activating erosion processes and flash floods
whenever there is a significant disruption in ecological balance, whether due to the removal
of vegetation cover or inadequate land use. Researchers have recorded approximately
11,500 torrents in Serbia, most of which were activated during the 19th century, a period of
significant social and political change, as well as intensive deforestation and the irrational
exploitation of natural resources. By the mid-19th century, the effects of land degradation
were impossible to ignore. As the adequate assessment of soil erosion intensity is the
initial step in developing a prevention and protection strategy and the type and scope of
anti-erosion works and measures, this article presents the path that the anti-erosion field in
Serbia has taken from the initial observations of erosion processes through the first attempts
to create the Barren Land Cadastre and Torrent Cadastre to the creation of the Erosion
Potential Method (EPM) and its modification by Dr. Lazarevi´c that resulted in the creation
of the first Erosion Map of SR Serbia in 1971 (published in 1983). In 2020, a new Erosion
Map of Serbia was created with the application of Geographic Information System (GIS)
technologies and based on the original method by Professor Slobodan Gavrilovi´c—the
EPM—without the modifications introduced by Lazarevi´c. We compared the 1983 and 2020
erosion maps in a GIS environment, where the change in soil erosion categories was analyzed using a confusion matrix. The updated erosion maps mirror the shift in methodology
from a traditional approach (Lazarevi´c’s modification) to the modern GIS-based method
(Gavrilovi´c’s original EPM) and reflect technological improvements and changes in land
use, conservation practices, and environmental awareness.

AB  - This study focused on the investigation of soil samples from the alluvial zone of the Sava River, located near the heating plant in New Belgrade, Serbia. Using gas chromatography with flame ionization detection (GC-FID), a broad range of alkanes, including linear n-alkanes (C10 to C33) and isoprenoids, was analyzed in all samples. The obtained datasets were effectively made simpler by applying multivariate statistical analysis. Various geochemical indices (CPI, ACL, AI, TAR, etc.) and ratios (S/L, Paq, Pwax, etc.) were calculated and used to distinguish between biogenic and anthropogenic contributions. This approach added a higher level of precision to the source identification of hydrocarbons and provided a detailed geochemical characterization of the investigated soil. The results showed that the topsoil had a high content of TPH (average value, 90.65 mg kg−1), potentially related to an accidental oil spill that occurred repeatedly over extended periods. The uncommon n-alkane profiles reported for the investigated soil samples are probably the result of inputs related to anthropogenic sources, emphasizing that petroleum was the main source of the short-chain n-alkanes. The methodology developed in this study was proven to be efficient for the assessment of the environmental quality of the soil in an urban part of New Belgrade, but it can also be a useful tool for soil monitoring and for a pollution assessment in other (sub)urban areas.

AB  - The effect of COVID-19 lockdown (LD) on many ambient air pollutants (NO,
NO2, PM2.5, PM10, O3 and SO2) was assessed for the first time in the Western Balkans
with an innovative approach that evaluates a variety of factors including the stringency
of the LD measures, the type of location, the pollution sources, the correlation with traffic
fluxes and the meteorology. To that end, observations from 10 urban sites were compared
with historical time series. The time window 1 February–30 May 2020 was classified in
sub-periods on the basis of the stringency of the circulation restrictions. NO2 and O3 are the
pollutants most affected by restrictions to population circulation due to lockdown during
the first phase of the COVID-19 pandemic, and are well correlated with traffic fluxes. A
reduction in fine particulate matter (PM2.5 and PM10) concentrations is observed in all sites
only during the full LD periods, while the relation between SO2 average and maximum
hourly concentrations and LD periods in industrial and traffic sites vary from site to site.
The reduction in NO2 concentrations during the LD resulted in a reduction in mortality
associated with air pollution in the largest cities, while the interpretation of the changes in
O3 and particulate matter is less clear.

AB  - Variability and relationship between phenological traits and leaf, acorn, and
tree size morphometric traits were examined in early and late bud-flushing groups of the
pedunculate oak population in the vicinity of Sremska Mitrovica, Serbia. According to
the obtained three-year results, there were no significant differences in tree size and leaf
morphometric characteristics between the early and late group. The effect of trees within
phenological groups was statistically significant and considerable, especially in leaf blade
width (lbw) and leaf area (la). Acorn length (acl) and acorn index (acinx) were significantly
influenced by phenological group, achieving moderate contribution of phenological group
to the total variation. There was a clear effect of phenological group on variation of
examined phenological traits. The effect of year of monitoring on the same traits was
not significant, but there was a clear effect of interaction between phenological group
and year, especially in case of traits describing the period from bud swelling until the
emergence of wrinkled leaves (f12a), unfolded leaves (f12b), and fully developed leaves
(f12g) and their ratio with the period from 8 March until the emergence of wrinkled leaves:
f12b/f02a and f12g/f02a ratio. Earlier phenology in warmer years is clearer in the early
bud-flushing group than in the late one. Periods between different bud swelling and
f12a, f12b, and f12g phenological phases were significantly shorter in 2017 (with a warm
April) than in 2015 (with moderate temperatures in March and April) in the early group,
but significantly longer in the late group. Examined traits were classified in six groups
based on their factorial loadings with the first six principal components rotated by Varimax
method, revealing strict distinction between traits by their original nature. In that sense,
all examined groups of traits could be considered as informative in variability studies of
pedunculate oak. The tree size traits (tree height and diameter at breast height) formed
the separate, fifth group, suggesting no close relationship of these traits with any other
examined characteristic. Both cluster analysis and PCA suggest distinct classification by
trees’ phenology, but also considerable differences by the second principal component
which is closely related to leaf size characteristics. The research should be continued on
variability between populations and progenies, especially with respect to phenological and
acorn morphometric traits. Understanding the phenological variations between early and
late oaks could be essential for designing robust forest adaptation management strategies.

AB  - A new formulation that gradually released encapsulated Thuja plicata essential oil (TPEO) as an active component from a biopolymer matrix within a given period was obtained. Antimicrobial activity was determined in in-vitro tests where pure TPEO successfully inhibited the development of different Phytophthora species. The TPEO essential oil was encapsulated into the biopolymer matrix and an oil-in-water emulsion was formed. FTIR spectra analysis confirmed the formation of electrostatic interaction between these polymers, and hydrogen interactions between active components of TPEO and polymer chains. The stability of the emulsions was confirmed by zeta potential measurements, with a value of about 30 mV, even after 14 days of aging. UV-Vis spectra analysis revealed that  gt 60% of TPEO remained in the emulsion after 14 days of exposure to ambient conditions, whereas pure TPEO evaporated faster, and around 20 % remained after 6 days. Encapsulated TPEO almost completely inhibited the growth of Phytophthora species during the ten-day day's exposition being statistically significantly improved compared to fungicide treatment. It was demonstrated that the emulsion exhibited a prolonged antimicrobial effect and successfully suppressed the growth of Phytophthora species, and can be considered as a means of protection in forests and crops.

AB  - Vojvodina is one of the five regions in Serbia, with a population of around 1.9 million residents. By this indicator, Vojvodina is the second-largest region in Serbia. However, with approximately 0.7 million active households, Vojvodina leads the regions in Serbia. Despite the fact that the forest cover in this region is only 7.97%, and gasification has been implemented in many populated areas, close to 40% of households in this region still use wood as a heating fuel. This makes this region interesting for research regarding wood fuel consumption. The results of the conducted research have shown that the consumption of firewood in 2021 amounted to 1.62 million cubic meters, and wood pellets were around 52 thousand tons. The average firewood consumption per household in urban areas was 6.3 cubic meters, while in rural areas, it was 6.9 cubic meters. Translated into energy efficiency parameters, the average consumption of wood energy per 1 square meter of the heated area in urban areas was 199 kWh, and in rural areas, it was 214.5 kWh. The consumption of wood energy in the households measured in kWh/m(2) of the heated area is not satisfactory in this region. Its values are beyond the values of the last class of the energy passport for residential buildings [G class  gt  188 kWh/m(2) (a)].

AB  - Drought hardening is a nursery technique aimed to enhance early forest plantation establishment under dry conditions, which is a main limiting factors for plantation success. However, the quantitative effectiveness of drought hardening remains unclear. We conducted a meta-analysis to evaluate the influence of different factors in the effectiveness of drought hardening on seedling post-planting survival and growth. Overall, drought hardening did not significantly affect survival or growth, as several factors induced great heterogeneity, but analyses of those factors explained its effectiveness, especially on survival. A longer time between hardening and transplanting strongly reduced survival. Indoor-grown seedlings did not benefit more from hardening than outdoor-grown seedlings. Evaluations of drought hardening effectiveness in pots showed positive effects on survival but negative effects on growth, while no effects were found in large bed experiments. In field experiments, hardening significantly increased survival and growth with site aridity. Survival benefits were independent of species drought tolerance, measured by osmotic potential at the turgor loss point (pi tlp), in moderate to high aridity sites. However, in low aridity sites, hardening increased survival in drought-tolerant species but decreased it in drought-intolerant species. Field results showed that hardening benefited shrubs more than trees in angiosperms. In conclusion, drought hardening at the end of nursery cultivation tend to increase post-planting seedling performance particularly in scenarios limiting post-planting root growth such as in arid climates and pot experiments. Our findings highlight the importance of future research on modelling the interaction between these technical features and species water use strategies..

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  - Global warming and climate change cause large temperature oscillations and uneven annual rainfall patterns. The rainy cycles characterized by frequent high-intensity rainfall in the area of the Stubo-Rovni water reservoir, which in 2014 peaked at 129 mm of water in 24 h (the City of Valjevo, the Republic of Serbia), caused major floods in the wider area. Such extremes negatively affect erosion processes, sediment production, and the occurrence of flash floods. The erosion coefficient before the construction of the water reservoir was Zm = 0.40, while the specific sediment production was about 916.49 m3 center dot km-2 center dot year-1. A hydrological study at the profile near the confluence of the Jadar and Obnica rivers, i.e., the beginning of the Kolubara river, the right tributary of the Sava (in the Danube river basin), indicates that the natural riverbed can accommodate flows with a 20% to 50% probability of occurrence (about 94 m3/s), while centennial flows of about 218 m3/s exceed the capacities of the natural riverbed of the Jadar river, causing flooding of the terrain and increasing risks to the safety of the population and property. The paper presents the impacts of the man-made Stubo-Rovni water reservoir on the catchment area and land use as the primary condition for preventing erosion processes (specific sediment production has decreased by about 20%, the forest cover increased by about 25%, and barren land decreased by 90%). Moreover, planned and controlled management of the Stubo-Rovni reservoir has significantly influenced the downstream flow, reducing the risks of flash floods.

This paper investigates the impact of changing climatic conditions on the blooming of Fraxinus ornus 'Globosa', a decorative form of ash that is a significant component of green infrastructure in Novi Sad, Serbia. The research, conducted over 15 years on 42 individuals in a linear planting near a large river, analyzed temperature and precipitation effects on blooming times and inflorescence characteristics The results indicate changes in the timing of blooming, earlier than recorded in the literature, suggesting that temperature variations and changes in climatic conditions have significantly influenced the phenological phases of the selected clones of globe flowering ash. Additionally, the studied individuals showed exceptional adaptation to climate change and are not considered vulnerable. This study confirmed that this cultivar of flowering ash in urban environments is a key link in the green infrastructure of cities, functioning as green corridors along river flows as a nature-based solution. The studied cultivar is an important element of cultural heritage, contributing to the recreational potential of the linear composition of the promenade, especially during the flowering phenophase, when, in addition to its aesthetic values, it has psychological effects on users of the space, offering a calming influence due to its regular canopy and planting rhythm. Additionally, this cultivar provides important ecological functions, such as offering pollen for pollinators, thereby significantly contributing to the implementation of ecosystem services.

AB  - Introduction: Mortality of the riparian alder population caused by Phytophthora pathogens has been studied for over 20 years throughout Europe, recently gaining more importance in the context of evident climate change. The main objective of this study was to examine the pathogenicity of species from the "Phytophthora alni complex" present in the Czech Republic (P. x alni and P. uniformis) and P. plurivora to Alnus glutinosa seedlings grown at ambient and elevated CO2 concentration. Methods: An underbark inoculation test was performed with seedlings grown from seeds collected from two Czech alder populations, one suffering from severe Phytophthora decline and the other disease-free. Results: The results showed significant differences in lesion development and seedling mortality. After a 13-week experimental period, at both CO2 levels P. x alni and P. uniformis showed high aggressiveness to A. glutinosa seedlings causing lesions of variable sizes and mortality of 33.3%, and 45.8% of plants, respectively. In contrast, P. plurivora did not cause mortality to any plant, and lesion sizes did not differ significantly from those in control plants. Physiological measurements did not reveal any significant differences between Phytophthora species except for plants inoculated with P. plurivora showing increased values in specific physiological parameters 4 weeks post-inoculation. Net photosynthesis decreased over the measurement period in all treatments with significant differences found between measurements conducted 2 and 4 weeks after the inoculation. Transpiration showed a decreasing trend in all inoculated plants with no significant differences between Phytophthora species at both CO2 levels. Chemical analyses of root samples showed high variability in sugars and phenolic compounds related to the plant's health status. Discussion: This is the first study to examine the response of alder seedlings to Phytophthora pathogens at different CO2 levels. The findings demonstrate high aggressiveness of P. x alni and P. uniformis and weaker aggressiveness of P. plurivora to alder seedlings regardless of the CO2 level.

abstract = "Introduction: Mortality of the riparian alder population caused by Phytophthora pathogens has been studied for over 20 years throughout Europe, recently gaining more importance in the context of evident climate change. The main objective of this study was to examine the pathogenicity of species from the "Phytophthora alni complex" present in the Czech Republic (P. x alni and P. uniformis) and P. plurivora to Alnus glutinosa seedlings grown at ambient and elevated CO2 concentration. Methods: An underbark inoculation test was performed with seedlings grown from seeds collected from two Czech alder populations, one suffering from severe Phytophthora decline and the other disease-free. Results: The results showed significant differences in lesion development and seedling mortality. After a 13-week experimental period, at both CO2 levels P. x alni and P. uniformis showed high aggressiveness to A. glutinosa seedlings causing lesions of variable sizes and mortality of 33.3%, and 45.8% of plants, respectively. In contrast, P. plurivora did not cause mortality to any plant, and lesion sizes did not differ significantly from those in control plants. Physiological measurements did not reveal any significant differences between Phytophthora species except for plants inoculated with P. plurivora showing increased values in specific physiological parameters 4 weeks post-inoculation. Net photosynthesis decreased over the measurement period in all treatments with significant differences found between measurements conducted 2 and 4 weeks after the inoculation. Transpiration showed a decreasing trend in all inoculated plants with no significant differences between Phytophthora species at both CO2 levels. Chemical analyses of root samples showed high variability in sugars and phenolic compounds related to the plant's health status. Discussion: This is the first study to examine the response of alder seedlings to Phytophthora pathogens at different CO2 levels. The findings demonstrate high aggressiveness of P. x alni and P. uniformis and weaker aggressiveness of P. plurivora to alder seedlings regardless of the CO2 level.",

AB  - Urban green infrastructure plays a crucial role in sustainable city development by offering a multitude of benefits, including improved environmental quality, increased social well-being, and enhanced economic prosperity. Evaluation and monitoring of regulatory implementation stand as essential components in the advancement of urban green infrastructure (GI) as they indicate the efficacy of regulatory acts and enable the assessment of their implementation success and adaptability to identified needs. This study identifies barriers and drivers based on the views of 352 professionals surveyed between 2018 and 2023 in Serbia. The primary data collection method employed questionnaire surveys. This study identified a range of barriers within existing legal frameworks, foremost of which include the lack of coordination and coherence between relevant ministries and governmental agencies, insufficient financial and human resources, the lack of transparency in the regulation development process, the need for strengthening technical capacities, and the absence of an adequate urban GI strategy. This research serves as a foundation for conceptualising GI regulatory elements that enhance urban GI development. Addressing these barriers necessitates efforts to improve coordination and collaboration among stakeholders, increase public participation, and enhance transparency in the regulatory process.

AB  - The aim of this research was to analyze the impact of implemented erosion control works (ECW) on soil erosion intensity in the watershed of the Celije reservoir (Rasina River) in the period between 1968 and 2022. The Erosion Potential Method was used to calculate the annual gross erosion (W), sediment transport (G), and erosion coefficient (Z) in the study area. As a result of the performed ECW there was a general decreasing trend in the intensity of soil erosion processes in the last 54 years. The specific annual gross erosion was 1189.12 m3/km-2/year-1 in 1968, while in 2022 it was 554.20 m3/km-2/year-1. The specific sediment transport was 540.18 m3/km-2/year-1 in 1968 and 253.55 m3/km-2/year-1 in 2022. Due to the changes in the intensity of erosion processes, the specific annual gross erosion decreased by 634.92 m3/km-2/year-1 and the specific sediment transport decreased by 286.63 m3/km-2/year-1. The erosion coefficient was reduced from Z = 0.62 to Z = 0.35. A dependence between the slope of siltation and the natural bed slope was defined. The results show a significant correlation between erosion intensity and performed ECW, providing a basis for future watershed management and defining a strategy for soil erosion control in the Celije reservoir watershed.

AB  - Urban trees play a vital role in mitigating climate changes, maintaining the sustainability of ecosystems. This study focuses on the assessment of the resilience of cherry plums to climate changes, a fruit-bearing species that offers diverse ecosystem services within multifunctional urban and suburban landscapes. This study examines flowering and fruiting in the context of climate characteristics, expressed through the Day of the Year (DOY), Growing Degree Days (GDDs), and a yield over 17 consecutive years. The results indicate significant shifts in the DOY but not in the GDD, apart from the end of flowering. The onset of flowering was earlier and the end postponed, extending the phenophase by an average of 4 days. The cherry plum's yield was unaffected by climate changes, including extreme events like a late-spring frost. The stability of the cherry plum was confirmed by the phenological patterns of the bullace (cherry plum and blackthorn hybrid) exhibiting repeated flowering in the warmest year of 2023. The cherry plum is an adaptive species, with a high adaptability to a changing climate and a high resistance to late-spring frosts; thus, it is a favorable choice in urban design and planning, demonstrating resilience to climate shifts and thriving in polluted urban environments. It is especially appreciated for multiple ecosystem services: biodiversity conservation in natural and semi-natural areas, yielding good provisions in challenging environments, and the preservation of ornamental values through an extended flowering phenophase.
