Land use impact on groundwater quality in Prud catchment area within project DRINKADRIA

DRINKADRIA IPA ADRIATIC project studies territorial vulnerability and long- and short-term methods to safeguard groundwater resources in the Adriatic area. In the Croatian part of DRINKADRIA project, catchment of spring Prud is presented. Prud is a karst spring situated in south Dalmatia, close to the boundary with Bosnia and Herzegovina (BiH). Within the catchment boundaries there are several settlements. Karst geomorphology to which spring Prud catchment area belongs, is marked by great complexities and intertwinement of hydrogeological relations. Despite numerous investigations and tracing experiments in this system there are still a great number of uncertainties and doubts. The underground connection, surface streams that are sinking and appearing on the surface again, karst springs, estavelles or swallow holes present a big challenge for hydrogeological investigations.
