Antropogenic influence of the Krka river estuary ecosystem (middle Adriatic coast)

Results of researches of hydrographic, geological, chemical and biological parameters carried out in the Krka estuary show that this area is under very strong influence of land factors, i. e. freshwater and industrial and urban effluents (still untreated). Mentioned influws bring large quantities of wastes and very toxic heavy metals (Zn, Cu, Pb and Hg) which have made this basin one of the most threatened areas along the eastern Adriatic coast.
