Abstract
The aim of the project is to develop a harmonized methodology for the assessment of the status of major rivers, reservoirs, and lakes in Serbia, as well as for the assessment of the future status improvement measures.The methodology is based on the advanced monitoring and modeling of flow, physical, chemical, and morphodynamic parameters, complemented with an effective set of indicators of aquatic ecosystem degradation. The selected approach will provide reliable data for model preparation, calibration and verification. The development and correlation of 1D, 2D and 3D modeling of flow, physical, chemical, and morphodynamic parameters will allow simulations of historical events, as well as predictions of the effects of natural or man-induced changes. The study of relations between abiotic parameters (flow velocities, selected water quality parameters, physical and chemical sediment characteristics and morphological changes) and Biological Quality Elements (algae, macrophyte, macroinvertebrates and fish fauna), will result in the development of a set of effective status indicators for selected water bodies in Serbia. In addition, the effects of management measures on fisheries and aquatic ecosystems will be analyzed. A methodology for the design and maintenance of more effective hydraulic structures will be developed, contributing to the improvement of the status of selected reservoirs.
