Summary: The paper presents the initial thoughts, hypotheses
andapproaches of a research project. Project is based on
theelectro-hydraulic analogy in the case of loose clastics saturatedwith
fresh groundwater. New approximate geohydraulic parametershave been
introduced: the indices of hydraulic conductivity,transmissivity and
leakage, calculated from resistivity soundingdata. This method can be
applied for low-costly solving ofseveral important water management
problems.

Summary: The water supply in the town and the region Varaždin is
based on the use of groundwater as the least polluted natural resource.
Chemical analysis of groundwater samples indicates the increased nitrate
concentration. In order to indentify the origin of nitrates and assess the
posibility of improvement of the present situation, the numeric model of
the pollution flow and discharge has been worked out.

Summary: The paper describes land and water resources of Croatia,
pollution sources and causes - waste water, use of fertilizers and
pesticides. The surface water and groundwater monitoring is analyzed and
their contamination with nitrates, phosphates, pesticides and some toxic
metals. Generally, in Croatia only the surface waters are systematically
monitored, while the groundwater quality is monitored only in the existing
well fields supplying the public water distribution systems or within the
frameworkof the hydromelioration systems control. The data on agricultural
pollution sources and causes are either unavailable or limited. According
to the available data, with local exceptions, the global pollution of the
surface and groundwaters is not alarming. The urgent need id underlined for
development of integrated water quality monitoring systems for the Black
Sea and Adriatic Sea catchment, with a special program of the territorial
sea quality control and interstate programs for border streamflows.

Summary: The roof of tapped aquifer in the area of Ravnik-Kutina is
composed of silty and clayey sediments within which the interlayers and
lenses of sand occur. The influence of hydrogeological parameters of these
deposits (vertical hydraulic conductivity and specific yield), on the
development of depression cone is very small under a relatively
short-lasted test pumping. This phenomenon can result in wrong conclusions
on the aquifer boundary conditions. The explorations on the true boundary
conditions of semiconfined aquifer, which was performed on the basis of a
long monitoring and a relatively intense extraction from the pumping site
Ravnik, showed that the leakage amount from semipermeable covering deposits
increases considerably during the first years of extraction.

Summary: Northern or Pannonian Croatia has relatively suitable
hydrometorological and hydrogeological conditions for groundwater use. In
the largest part of this region, the precipitation infiltration is so high
that it enables - if only its plains are considered - four to six times
greater groundwater extraction than the actual one in the whole region. It
is necessary to mention also that 96% of the actual public water supply of
this region is based on groundwater.
Concerning its hydrogeological conditions, this entire region forms one
complex hydrogeological region - the Northern Croatian or Panonian
hydrogeological region. Within it, three hydrogeological provinces are
separated: low mountain massifs, hilly margin of mountain massifs and
plains.
Groundwater quality is, at least now, mainly suitable for public water
supply and irrigation. However, the groundwater protection has become and
will be ever more complex in large plains due to a high present and
potential concentration of urban, industrial, traffic and agriculture
sources of pollution. Besides, geohydraulic connections between the highest
yielding aquifer and already very polluted main rivers are extremely high.

Summary: A current research project, based on the electro-hydraulic
analogy, is shortly described. The basic geoelectric parameter,
resistivity, of loose sediments saturated with groundwater is used to
evaluate approximate values of important geohydraulic parameters. This
method cuts exploration costs considerably and can be applied to solving
several water management problems related to horizontal and vertical
groundwater flow. It refers particularly to groundwater quality protection
in areas of developed agriculture. Ten research pilot areas have been
established in the plains of northern Croatia and project results in five
of them are briefly discussed.

Summary: Qaternary deposits in wide area of Drava valley build's
aquifer with large amount of groundwater. Western part consist of sand and
gravel layers, while eastern part has predominantly uniform sand mixed with
layers of silt and clay. Natural replenishment of groundwater from
precipitation in the region is higher then groundwater use for public water
supply, but local distribution network and available groundwater budget in
some eastern parts is such that planned necessity exceeded local natural
groundwater recharge. In central and western parts of the region exist
surplus of available groundwater budget what can be interesting for public
water supply of neighboring deficit part and agricultural purposes.
Specially is important convenient relationship between rechargeable and
deposited store of groundwater and possibility of induced infiltration.

Summary: The paper deals with one of the pilot areas of a current
applied hydrogeology research project based on the electro-hydraulic
analogy. In large river plains filled with loose clastic sediments and
saturated with groundwater of a commonly low salinity, the geohydraulic
parameters controlling the vertical groundwater flow through covering
aquitardsare substituted with their approximate "counterparts": hydraulic
conductivity index and leakage index. These means of the specific
electrical resistivity of those sediments. The map showing the distribution
of leakage index values may be used for a quick, low-cost evaluation of
groundwater vulnerability to heavy agricultural pollution by fertilizers
and pesticides.

Summary: The groundwater exploration within the drainage basin of
Drava river in Croatia is considerably increased. The main source for
public water supply is the aquifer formatted in heterogeneous Quaternary
deposits up to 300 m thick. This is spread over the whole area of wide
Drava valley with gently sloping toward east. The western parts consist of
gravel and sand with high permeability in contrast to eastern parts made up
predominantly of uniform sands alternated with clay and silt layers. The
infiltration from precipitation is the main source of natural recharge.
However, in condition of intensive groundwater extraction the inducing
recharge from Drava river flow could be realizable. Because of great
groundwater reservoir potential the aquifer has overall regional
significance. Nevertheless, there are some locations within the region
where consumer demands exceed local groundwater resources.
The paper presents groundwater analysis experience in Croatian part of
Drava valley with main characteristics of aquifer.

Summary: Sustainable development and use of groundwater resources
start to be imperative in the future. Priorities of public water supply in
groundwater extraction increase the conflict of interest with industry,
agriculture and other consumers. The concept of sustainable operation and
management of groundwater budget will be shown on the area of Osijek (925
km2) through effective rainfall and percolation process analysis. Effective
rainfall recharges aquitard and in the long term insure groundwater
extraction from leaky aquifer in the amount of 27.000.000 m3 per annum.
Results of measurement and mathematical models are briefly given.

Summary: The basic aim of the thesis was to explore the recharge of
a semiconfined aquifer which occurs in the area of the pumping site Ravnik
during a relatively heavy and long pumping. Simultaneously, in this area
and within a scientific research project in the domain of electro-hydraulic
analogy, it was studied the relationship between the specific electrical
resistivity of Quaternary deposits saturated with groundwater, determined
by the resistivity sounding, and pertaining hydrogeological parameters of
the semipermeable covering layer determined in the process of model

Summary: At the Ravnik pumping site, 8 wells are being operated
producing about 60 l/s of water. The demand is greater for 20 more l/s. The
wells were shortly test pumped to determine their present specific
capacity. A mathematical model showed that the total groundwater recharge
is 28 % above the pumped amount of water, thus, the required increment of
the pumped water amount is possible. However, it is necessary to revitalize
all the well sand two more wells, now inactive, to put also in operation.
