AB  - Torrential floods are the most frequent natural hazard events in Bosnia and Herzegovina. The increase of intensive rains in Bosnia and Herzegovina over last years, as a consequence of the climate changes, has triggered many torrential floods, which have generated a lot of damages and losses of human lives. This study was focused on development of torrential susceptibility model using GMM Method and GIS in the Vrbas river basin as an attempt to create a new methodological approach which can be used on other river basins in Bosnia and Herzegovina. First, a total of 174 torrential basins were identified in the Vrbas river basin, as a base for creating an inventory map, which was a base map for the assessment of torrential floods susceptibility. The GIS Matrix Method and six influencing factors were used for generation of Torrential Flood Susceptibility Model. Based on the obtained values of Torrential Flood Susceptibility Model for the Vrbas river basin, 45.52% of the study area is within strong and very strong susceptibility category. The Torrential Flood Susceptibility Model was validated using a "degree of fit" method. Validation indicators of the TFSM show that the 80.04% are in the category of strong and very strong susceptibility, while only 4.37% are in the category of very low and low susceptibility. This fact suggests that used methodology based on GMM method and used influencing factors enable delimitation of the area with high and very high susceptibility to torrential floods into the Vrbas basin. Therefore, used methodological approach represents a good base for future research, and it has potential for the practical use and should be tested in other river basins in Bosnia and Herzegovina.

AB  - Reservoir sedimentation is a serious problem in many areas with high sediment yield. The main objective of this research is to analyse the storage capacity of Drenova reservoir and to determine the quality of water and sediment, particularly the content of heavy metals. Integrated GPS system and echo-sounder were used during the bathymetric survey in order to estimate sediment deposition in Drenova reservoir. The 2012 current state Digital Elevation Model (DEM) was compared to the preconstruction state DEM, which was compiled from geodetic bases and project documentation, thus enabling determination of all changes in the storage of Drenova reservoir. The results of this comparison showed that in the past 30 years, the storage capacity of Drenova reservoir decreased by 262,963 m(3) and 274,342 m(3) based on the normal and maximum water level. Drenova accumulation area is covered with 348,216 m(3) of sediment, which decreased the ineffective space by 69.64% and the total operational space by 5.81%. Water analysis of Drenova reservoir showed usual physical chemical parameters for these types of reservoirs and that it corresponds to maximum allowable concentration for the 11 class water level. The enrichment factor for metal concentrations showed that the anthropogenic influence is moderate for Ni and As, while it is minor for Cr, Cd, Mn, Zn and Cu, and it indicates no enrichment for Pb. The obtained results not only enabled defining potential locations for sediment desilting and its proper disposal in the basin, but led to consideration of other possibilities regarding duration span of Drenova reservoir.

AB  - Soil erosion is a significant environmental problem that causes severe consequences on the human society and economy. The Integrated Revised Universal Soil Loss Equation (RUSLE) with the Geographic Information System (GIS) have been used to assess the potential of soil erosion in the northern part of Bosnia and Herzegovina. An average of 9.88 t ha-1 year-1 of potential soil erosion was estimated in the study area, and 47.44% of the study area had an erosion rate of  lt 2 t ha-1 year-1. The soil loss estimation of 2 to 10 t ha-1 year-1 is found in 22.92% of the territory. The estimation of soil loss of >10 t ha-1 year-1 is inherent in 29.63% of the study area. The results of this study can be used for planning of conservation practices and land-use planning, as well as a framework for evaluation of soil erosion factors in other local communities in Bosnia and Herzegovina, in the case when limited data are available.

AB  - There are many limitations associated with traditional approaches to estimation of soil erosion and deposition rates. Recently attention has been focused on 137Cs and successful usage of this isotope in soil erosion studies. This paper presents the results of measurements of 137Cs in soil profiles which were sampled within catchments of Drenova reservoir. The proportional model and a simplified version of the mass balance model were used to estimate the mean soil loss or deposition redistributions rates. The aim of this study is to estimate the soil erosion and deposition rates using 137Cs tracer model, as a support for the results obtained by empirical methodology.
