    Summary: The problem of protection of water resources in the Karst area of Croatia has been particularly expressed for the last fifteen years. Specific natural circumstances under which the dynamics of ground water is formed and developed were the reason of impossibility to make uniform criteria of protection of these water resources, from the beginning of working out the Regulations on Ground Water Protection in the Republic of Croatia. Present experience makes it possible to make a more organized approach to the problem. This applies, in particular, to the surroundings of the town of Rijeka, where in the past considerable funds were invested in research and in new ground water intakes, but also in their protection. It is necessary to note the new intakes Zvir II and Marganovo (800 l/sec), reconstruction of the intake Zvir (additional 600 l/sec), and numeorus activities to update the existing Decree on Water Protection for the territory of the Rijeka municipality. In the framework of water protection, categorization of wells was made, depending on their present or future importance for the water supply of the town, and delineation for water reservations in the mountainous parts of the catchment areas. The sources already in use or potential sources for future water supply of the town are protected, with the four basic degrees of protection.
    Keywords: water resources, hydrogeological research, water intakes, water protection in the Karst, sanitary protection zones, water resources development.

    Summary: The Lake of Vrana on the Cres island is the largest waterphenomenon of Adriatic islands. It is located in the central partof the island and its total area is 5 km2. The maximum depth ofthe lake is 70 m (60 m below sea-level) and it accumulates 220milion m3 of fresh water. The water level is showing a decreasingtendency during last ten years. Clarification of the genesis andhydrodynamic model of the lake is of exceptional importance forrational protection of the lake area and for the best using oflake water in the water supply of the Cres-Lošinj group ofislands. There is a dilamma about lake recharge system only fromits local catchment area, regarding partially known limnologicalcharacteristics of the lake and huge amount of fresh water whichfills depressions in karst relief. The concept based onexclusively local catchment area limits the possibility of usingthat nature resource and by that of economical development of theislands, which is without enough exact elements dangerous toelaborate. In sach conditions we set up research project, whichhas been only partially executed by now, so results presented inthis study have only character of the first scientificinformation.

    Summary: The application of effects of overexploatation of karst aquifersis recent most in Croatia. It has particular meaning in theindustrially developed town of Rijeka area when disposebleoverflow groundwater quantities do not meet an over growing watersupply demand. That is very complex research work, particularywhen the natural and artificial recharge of karst aquifers put inrelation with possible change of water quality.

    Summary: The Kupa River, a tributary of the Sava, rises in the karsticGorski Kotar region, which is located between the Sava valley andthe Adriatic sea. The source region of the Kupa river containssignificant reserves of ground water which are still of highquality, at the levels of the standards for drinking water ofthat part of Croatia. In dry periods during summer, water flowsout from the region at a rate of about 9 m3/s, and in wet periodsup to several hundred m3/s, which also represents a significantpotential source of energy. The problem is one of preserving thenatural environment while making optimal use of this waterpotential for several different purposes. Currently 150 l/s ofwater from the region is supplied to the local population, butconsidering the uncertain future if water supplies to Zagreb fromthe Sava alluvium and the Adriatic tourism zone (Rijeka,Istria),Gorski Kotar ground water reserves have gained strategicimportance to the water supply of the Western part of Croatia. The Gorski Kotar region is mainly made up of karstfied carbonaterocks, which are the main water-bearing rocks of the region. Thepresence of impermeable clastic rocks directs flows of groundwater towards the largest springs. However, their mainlyallochthonous structural position in relation to the porouscarbonate rocks makes the hydrogeologic picture of this regionvery complex. In these natural conditions, and in a region of intense urban andtransport development, preventative protection of the waterresources is an exceptionally important and complex task. Inrelation to this, the proclaimed policy of sustainabledevelopment must be taken into account. An assessment of thepresent situation of this water bearing region and forecasts offuture events can only be achieved by a good knowledge of thegeological and structural relations, the tracking of a largenumber of underground streams and constant monitoring of waterquality at the sources.

    Summary: A very labile balance of fresh and salt water in the littoral region is usually disturbed by excessive withdrawal during the dry summer periods. These are generally known facts and our experts tried to cope with the issue mainly by blocking the potential points od sea intrusion. Several grout curtains were constructed which generally gave fair or poor results. The practice of other countries in this type of projects is similar. Stimulated by difficulties in resolving these problems, and a number of failed projects in the world, IAH organized numerous SWIM's (Salt Water Intrusion Meetings). The selected papers from these meeting were published in 1991. The published experience and additional consultations helped us prepare a program of investigations for the springs in Bakar bay, Novljanska Žrnovnica and other locations in our country, where we participated in investigation projects. The results of long-term observation of saliferation during the dry summer periods enabled us to identify specific dynamics and relationship between the fresh and sea water system. These are primarily controls of the deep aquifer sections where the sea remains even when the water at springs is completely fresh.

    Summary: Hydrogeological information system assumes the development of information system for groundwater to which almost 90% of Croatian water supply is connected. One of main activities of the Hydrogeology and Engineering Geology Sector with the Geology Institute is the project "Basic Hydrogeological Maps" in the scale 1:100000, which represents fundamental source of data and interpretative values of the information system. Program support ARC/INFO (ESRI - USA) has good capacities as regards required graphic presentations as well as the creation of a very complex database. Main problem in the formation of the entire system was how to reconcile the requirements of Basic Hydrogeological Map, as a conventional project for state territory, and very sophisticated requirements of one basic information system (GIS) open for additional program modifications. We have achieved this goal with graphic presentation on the topographic base in the scale 1:25000 containing all attributes required for the identification of groundwater movement. The entire system has been developed as a thematic segment of the future "Environmental Information System of the Republic of Croatia". Along with the basic program, individual projects are under way which shall integrate the entire system, such as Hydrogeological Map of the Adriatic Catchment in the scale 1:500000, within National Report for Groundwater of Croatian Water Management System, and FIS of Upstream Drava River for the need of Croatian Water Management System and Croatian Power Company.

    Summary: Vransko Jezero on the island Cres has the surface of 5.3 km2 and is an unique water phenomenon on Adriatic karst islands and in the entire Mediterranean. Entirely fresh water volume (220 mill. m3) reaching the depth of 60 m below sea level on the elongated, relatively narrow island of Cres (about 10 km) has always drawn the attention of researchers. Two basic concepts on lake recharge have often been at odds - from local catchment or from regional zone or even zones outside the island. However, the knowledge on the lake wasn't sufficient to decide in favor of any of these assumptions. From the very start of exploratory works we've accepted in principle the second, more courageous concept, not denying the influence of local catchment. The fundamental task was to identify actual natural conditions under which this lake evolved and contemporary water movement in this region. This is the only way in which dynamic model of the lake could be developed and the only manner of managing this important water resource. The results of hydrogeological explorations to date would be presented in this paper, from the definition of system geometry, hydrochemical investigations, investigations of natural water isotopes, results obtained by diving-recordings of the deepest part of the lake, results of analysis of recent sediment, relation between the lake and groundwater in the immediate catchment and analysis of lake genesis from Pleistocene up to present in the scope of development of the entire North-Adriatic region.

    Summary: The sources of potable water represent the main prerequisite for the development of cities, especially in karst regions, so that the city of Rijeka evolved in the northernmost part of the Kvarner Bay on the site of huge water quantity discharge. However, the growth of the city and industry caused only partial exploitation of this water resource, bringing the city of Rijeka to the boundary conditions of water supply twenty years ago. The first task of hydrogeologists was to provide for spring water intake in the background of the spring, since original spring zones are mostly covered by city facilities and spring water has been lead into city sewage system. Thus, the abstraction structure Zvir II was constructed with additional quantity of potable water in the order of 600 l/s. During last ten years, the works have been aimed at the re-exploitation of the main city spring Zvir by which additional 500 l/s of potable water shall be provided for city water supply system. Special attention has been paid to water protection, so that the city of Rijeka has been the first city in karst region which has reached the decision on water protection. This hasn't been only a declarative document, but was the basis for certain remedial works and changes in urban plans. Today, the city of Rijeka has sufficient quantities of high quality water. Hydrogeological investigations have been initiated with the aim to provide for water intake from the underground outside the zones of possible urban and industrial pollution.

    Summary: The COST Action 65 "Hydrogeological Aspects of Groundwater Protection in Karstic Areas" is a joint scientific research project of 16 European countries in the domain of karst aquifer protection. The actual interest of European contries is directed to the water supply from karstic, mainly mountainous areas where the present water quality and natural conditions guarantee the feasibility to maintain such quality in the future and to give high-quality water supply to a large portion of the European population. Being conscious of that fact, the researchers of European countries, where the karstic aquifers have a large share in total reserves of potable water, have associated to solve the problem. Within the COST Action 65 during the last five years, they have tried, through their individual and joint research work, to evaluate, the present cognitions on karst aquifers. Thez have tried to improve national and international approaches and measures to improve the protection of those so precious resources from the present and future potable water supply. From the very beginning of this research action, numerous research pilot areas have been established in all participating countries and they represent various types of karst aquifers. The joint research work was carried out within four working groups. The research results are presented in a book divided in three parts: I Recommendations for karst aqufer protection; II Results of joint research activity; III National reports of 16 participating countries. A particular value of this action is that a large number of European hydrogeologists and related experts are closely associated within the OCST organization and IAH. They are able to react jointly, if necessary, to solve problems that may appear in karstic areas as consequences of the present urban, industrial, traffic, adn agricultural development.
