Challenges of torrential flood risk management in Serbia
(Belgrade : Geographical Institute "Jovan Cvijic", SASA, 2015)
Torrential floods are the natural hydrological hazards manifesting as a consequence of extreme rainfall episodes which have a quick response from the watersheds of small areas, steep slopes and intensive soil erosion. ...
Multi-criterion Water Quality Analysis of the Danube River in Serbia: A Visualisation Approach
(Elsevier, 2015)
River quality analysis is an important activity which, in Serbia, has been performed using the Serbian Water Quality Index (SWQI). This is a measure based on a weighted aggregation of 10 water quality parameters. In this ...
Sustainable tourism in National Park Đerdap, Serbia: attitudes of local population
(Beograd : Srpska akademija nauka i umetnosti SANU - Geografski institut 'Jovan Cvijić', 2015)
In the context of the broader controversy about sustainable development, tourism literature highlights the importance of the support of the local population to tourism development. The active support of the community is ...
The influence of solar activities on occurrence of the forest fires in south Europe
(Univerzitet u Beogradu - Institut za nuklearne nauke Vinča, Beograd, 2015)
In mid-July 2012, hundreds of fires spread over forest stands in the south of Europe. Considering available satellite and meteorological data we have tried to determine a method using analogy, whether these fires were ...
The effect of the thermal component change on regional climate indices in Serbia
(Univerzitet u Beogradu - Institut za nuklearne nauke Vinča, Beograd, 2015)
The study of climate changes is most often based on the analysis of time series of temperature and precipitation in urban areas and the increase in the emission of gases having a greenhouse effect. On the other hand, the ...
Dendroindication of drought in Rogatica region (eastern Bosnia)
(Srpsko biološko društvo, Beograd, i dr., 2015)
The aim of this study was to investigate the possibility of using the dendrochronological method in drought prediction in eastern Bosnia. As an indicator of drought, the standardized precipitation index (SPI) was used. In ...
Hiatus in global warming - the example of water temperature of the Danube river at Bogojevo gauge (Serbia)
(Univerzitet u Beogradu - Institut za nuklearne nauke Vinča, Beograd, 2015)
The research included trends in water temperature of the Danube River at Bogojevo gauge and surface air temperature at the nearby meteorological station Sombor, as well as an analysis of the results obtained in relation ...

(Springer, New York, 2015)
According to the number of torrential watercourses, the frequency of occurrence and the consequences that have resulted in the past, torrential floods are the most frequent and disastrous natural hazards in Serbia. Since ...
Statistical analysis of temperature regime change on the example of Sokobanja basin in eastern Serbia
(Univerzitet u Beogradu - Institut za nuklearne nauke Vinča, Beograd, 2015)
The changes and oscillations in air temperature during the second half of the 20th and in the early 21st century, have become one of the major concerns of almost all scientific disciplines. Such changes are noticeable both ...
Modelling of forest fires time evolution in the USA on the basis of long term variations and dynamics of the temperature of the solar wind protons
(Belgrade : Vinča Institute of Nuclear Sciences, 2015)
The work examines the potential causative link between the flow of protons, i. e. temperature of the particles that are coming from the Sun and forest fires in the USA. For determination of the degree of randomness for ...
