AB  - The aim of the present study was to evaluate the health risk of potentially toxic elements (PTEs) As, B, Cr, Cu, Mn, Ni and Zn in electrofilter ash (EFA) and fly ash (FA) from chronosequential FA lagoons L0, L1 and L2 (with weathering and revegetation duration of 0, 3 and 11 years, respectively) for the health of residents (children and adults) in the vicinity of Nikola Tesla A Thermal Power Plant (TENT A), Obrenovac, Serbia. Namely, spreading FA on the surrounding agricultural land, roadside and residential areas may expose the surrounding population to the harmful effects of PTEs and endanger their health through direct ingestion, dermal contact or inhalation. Health risk analysis has shown that oral ingestion of EFA and FA poses the highest potential risk to both adults and children. Children are more susceptible to the health effects of PTE compared to adults, and As poses a potential noncarcinogenic risk to children from ingestion, especially in the case of EFA and raw FA from L0 , while the noncarcinogenic risk potential of Cr in EFA is present in both children and adults. The cumulative noncarcinogenic effect of all tested elements was present in children in the case of ingestion of both EFA and FA from L0 and L1, while for adults only in the case of ingestion of EFA. On the other hand, the carcinogenic risk of EFA and FA from all lagoons was within acceptable limits. The results of this study could be useful to obtain basic information about the health risk status of people living in these areas.

AB  - The enormous quantities of fly ash (FA) produced by thermal power plants is a global
problemand safe, sustainable approaches to reduce the amount and its toxic effects
are still being sought. Vegetation cover comprising long-living species can help
reduce FA dump-related environmental health issues. However, the synergistic
effect of multiple abiotic factors, like drought, low organic matter content, a deficit
of essential nutrients, alkaline pH, and phytotoxicity due to high potentially toxic
element (PTE) and soluble salt content, limits the number of species that can grow
under such stressful conditions. Thus, we hypothesised that Populus alba L., which
spontaneously colonised two FA disposal lagoons at the ‘Nikola Tesla A’ thermal
power plant (Obrenovac, Serbia) 3 years (L3) and 11 years (L11) ago, has high
restoration potential thanks to its stress tolerance. We analysed the basic physical
and chemical properties of FA at different weathering stages, while the
ecophysiological response of P. alba to multiple stresses was determined through
biological indicators [the bioconcentration factor (BCF) and translocation factor (TF)
for PTEs (As, B, Cr, Cu, Mn, Ni, Se, and Zn)] and by measuring the following
parameters: photosynthetic efficiency and chlorophyll concentration, nonenzymatic
antioxidant defence (carotenoids, anthocyanins, and phenols), oxidative
stress (malondialdehyde (MDA) concentrations), and total antioxidant capacity (IC50)
to neutralise DPPH free radical activity. Unlike at L3, toxic As, B, and Zn
concentrations in leaves induced oxidative stress in P. alba at L11, shown by the
higher MDA levels, lower vitality, and reduced synthesis of chlorophyll, carotenoids,
and total antioxidant activity, suggesting its stress tolerance decreases with longterm
exposure to adverse abiotic factors. Although P. alba is a fast-growing species
with good metal accumulation ability and high stress tolerance, it has poor
stabilisation potential for substrates with high As and B concentrations, making it
highly unsuitable for revitalising such habitats.

AB  - In urbanized areas, mitigating the negative effects of pollutants from various anthropogenic
sources is one of the most important issues in planning urban functioning and development. In this
sense, urban vegetation plays one of the most important roles. The aim of this study was to investigate
the performance of network analysis (NA) as a novel and potential method for determining different
associations between potentially toxic elements (PTEs) in leaves of urban trees, their accumulation
capacity and ecophysiological response to different types of pollution in urban environments. The
results of NA showed that there is no association between elements in species that have lower or
higher efficiency in uptake of PTEs, leading to the conclusion that the elements do not depend on
mutual association but on accumulation itself. It was also found that there are differences in the
content of photosynthetic pigments and carotenoids among the studied species, but these differences
are not reflected in the values of the photosynthetic efficiency parameters. Overall, the studied species
have good ecophysiological potential for growth and existence in the urban environment, despite
the varying ability to accumulate elements and the different associations between them. This is the
first study to investigate the interactions between PTEs in leaves of urban tree species using NA and
provides a good basis for future research under different environmental conditions.

AB  - Changes in the urban environment can have serious effects on plants, including changes in the availability of certain essential micronutrients. Micronutrients are needed in very small amounts and are often required as cofactors for enzyme activity. In this study, the concentrations of selected essential micronutrients (B, Cu, Mn, and Zn) and the activity of the enzyme catalase in leaves of Tilia sp. were measured. The study was conducted in urban parks in Belgrade, Pancevo and Smederevo, exposed to various sources of pollution from traffic and industry. Control site was located in an area without a direct source of pollution. Results of this study revealed toxic B content in leaves of Tilia sp. from Belgrade, while deficiency of this element was measured in Pancevo. Deficit in Zn content was measured in almost all examined individuals, while Mn deficit was measured in Belgrade and at the Control site. The lowest values of catalase activity were measured in Tilia sp. at the Control site, which indicates that the Zn and Mn deficiencies cause slightly lower vitality of Tilia sp. at the Control site compared to the same trees at the other sites. On the other hand, the highest catalase activity measured in Belgrade could be the result of B toxicity. The results of the discriminant analysis (DA) showed that Belgrade site is clearly separated from the other three sites, with B and Mn contributing the most.

AB  - Mineral nutrients (micronutrients) are essential for plant growth and develpment. In low concentrations they have a stimulating effect on plant functioning, but in high concentrations they can be toxic. These micronutrients are naturally present in the environment, but can also originate from industrial plants or from contaminated water used to irrigate agricultural fields. These elements are taken up by plants used for human consumption or grown to feed domestic animals (fodder). In order to evaluate and reduce the risk of growing potentially contaminated plants for livestock feed on soils in the immediate vicinity of coal mines and thermal power plants, the presence of Mn, Se and Zn in alfalfa (Medicago sativa L.) samples was determined. Alfalfa samples and associated soils were collected from the territory of municipalities of Lazarevac (village Sokolovo) and Obrenovac (village Krtinka), while the territory of the municipality of Surčin (village Jakovo) was chosen as the control site. The bioconcentration factor (BCF), as well as Spearman correlations were calculated, which can provide information about the potential efficiency of the removal of elements from the soil by the plant. The results of the content of the studied elements in fodder were within the usual concentrations for conventional production, except in the case of Se. The Se content in the studied Medicago sativa samples was in a range that can cause chronic or acute poisoning in livestock if consumed, so special attention is needed if these plants are used in the diet of livestock. However, alfalfa was found not to be a significant accumulator of Mn, Se and Zn, as the values of the bioconcentration factor were below 1. Examined element concentrations in soil were within MAC values for soils according to the regulations of the Republic of Serbia. These results urge caution in the cultivation of fodder at investigated sampling sites.

AB  - Potentially toxic elements (PTEs) are present in the environment as a result of natural processes, but also numerous anthropogenic activities. A large part of PTE in the soil originates from industrial plants or from contaminated water used to irrigate agricultural fields. Thus, they are taken up by plants used for human consumption or by plants grown to feed domestic animals (fodder). In order to determine the presence of B, Cu and Ni in the food chain and to evaluate and reduce the risk of growing plants for livestock feed on potentially contaminated soils in the immediate vicinity of coal mines and thermal power plants, samples of alfalfa (Medicago sativa L.) and soil were collected from the territory of municipalities of Obrenovac (village Krtinka) and Lazarevac (village Sokolovo), while the territory of the municipality of Surčin (village Jakovo) was chosen as the control site. Furthermore, the bioconcentration factor (BCF) was calculated, which can provide information about the potential efficiency of the removal of elements from the soil by the plant. The results of the content of the studied elements in fodder were within the usual concentrations for conventional production. However, Ni content in the soil was above the proposed MAC for soils according to the regulations of the Republic of Serbia (50 mg kg-1) and higher than the limit values proposed by the Council Directive of the European Community (30–75 mg kg-1). These results urge caution in the cultivation of fodder at investigated sampling sites.

AB  - Air pollution in urban environment is one of the major stressors for vegetation. The aim of the present study was to investigate the levels of sulfur dioxide (SO2) and nitrogen dioxide (NO2) in the air in Belgrade and Smederevo and their effects on photosynthetic efficiency and catalase enzyme activity of Betula pendula Roth. It was found that SO2 and NO2 concentrations increased from June to October at both studied sites but did not exceed the limits set by the national regulation. NO2 concentrations above the limits were measured only in October in Belgrade. It was also found that the values of the parameter of photosynthetic efficiency (Fv/Fm) were within the optimal range determined for deciduous trees, except in June in Belgrade, indicating that birch has optimal photosynthetic efficiency. Average catalase activity increased during the course of season at both sites. The lowest enzyme activity was measured in June in Belgrade and the highest in October in Smederevo. It was be concluded that under the given environmental conditions, the birch trees show no signs of damage and that the basic physiological processes are running at an optimal level. The increase in photosynthetic efficiency and catalase activity in birch leaves in the second part of the season could represent some kind of adaptation mechanism that allows it to survive under unfavorable environmental conditions.

AB  - Soil degradation is a global problem and researchers are facing the challenge of assessing the scale, trends, and consequences of contributing processes. With this in mind, this study implemented the new concept of multiple soil degradation indices (MSDI) for the first time in the region of ˇSumadija and Western Serbia (SWS). This concept enables the simultaneous integration of several environmental components that can act separately or synergistically and offers concrete answers and information on the state and distribution of physical (PSDI), chemical (CSDI) and biological (BSDI) soil degradation. Using several different geospatial-modelled approaches, results indicated that physical degradation was the greatest contributor to soil degradation in the SWS region with an impact of 55%, followed by chemical degradation at 16%, while biological degradation only had a 6% impact. The dominant indicator of physical degradation was the vegetation cover management factor with an impact of approximately 58%, while for chemical degradation it was soil organic matter, with a relative impact of almost 49%. Total microflora and total number of fungi were the most significant biological indicators with an average impact of approximately 43%. In addition, this study indicated that about 59% of the region is currently
degraded, with about 44% of it classified as moderately degraded. The results of this study offer new insights into the geospatial dynamics of interactive degradation processes in Serbia and can form the basis for strengthening scientific, expert, and political support when implementing international and national policies concerned with protecting soil from degradation.

AB  - The challenging process of identifying and selecting plant species suited to the phytore­mediation of fly ash (FA) dumps involves studying their functional properties and physiological response to a deficit of essential elements and toxicity from heavy metal(loid)-induced oxidative stress. We hypothesised that Tamarix tetrandra has high potential to be used for the phytoremediation of FA deposit sites thanks to its secretion strategy and antioxidative system. In this study, this hypothesis was examined by determining the bioconcentration and translocation factors for As, B, Cr, Cu, Mn, Ni, Se and Zn at the FA disposal lagoons at the 'Nikola Tesla A' thermal power plant in Obrenovac, Serbia, three (lagoon Ll) and eleven (lagoon L2) years after the phytoremediation process had begun, and by measuring parameters of photosynthetic efficiency and chlorophyll concentration, non-enzymatic antioxidant defence (carotenoids, anthocyanins and phenolics), oxidative stress (con­centration of malondialdehyde-MDA) and total antioxidant capacity to neutralise DPPH free radical activity. Tamarisk not only showed the ability to phytostabilise As, Cr and Ni and to accumulate low-availability Mn, Zn and Cu, but also the potential to maintain the structural and functional integrity of cell membranes and stable vitality at L1 under multiple stress conditions due to the high synthesis of phenols and tolerance to increased salinity. However, toxic concentrations of B and Se in leaves induced oxidative stress in tamarisk at L2 (reflected in higher MDA content and lower vitality) and also decreased the synthesis of chlorophyll, carotenoids, anthocyanins and total antioxidant activity. In addition, the prooxidative behaviour of phenols in the presence of spin-stabilising metals from FA could also have resulted in their weaker antioxidant protection at L2. These findings indicate that the choice of tamarisk was justified, but only at the beginning of the phytoremediation process because its presence contributed to an improvement in the harsh conditions at FA deposit sites and the creation of more favourable conditions for new plant species. This knowledge can be of great importance when planning sustainable ash deposit site management worldwide.

AB  - Quality of urban air is one of the most challenging environmental problems in the 21st century. The use of higher plants, especially different parts of trees, for air monitoring purposes is becoming more and more widespread. In this study, the bark of Acer platanoides L., Acer pseudoplatanus L. and Betula pendula Roth was examined in order to evaluate their ability for biomonitoring purposes in the three urban municipalities in Belgrade city which is affected by different industrial activities and traffic. The concentration of Cu, Mn, Pb and Zn were measured using ICP-OES. The results obtained in this study indicate the regularity in the spatial distribution of the examined elements, ie the highest concentrations were measured in the tree bark from the park in the municipality of Palilula. It was established that the bark of A. platanoides and A. pseudoplatanus retain higher concentration of Cu, Pb and Mn in relation to the bark of B. pendula, but that the accumulation potential of examined species depends not only on the characteristics of the bark, but also on specific habitat conditions. The bark of B. pendula showed good potential for Zn accumulation. Based on the obtained data, it can be concluded that the bark of the examined species can be used as indicator of long-term air pollution, whereby the bark of A. platanoides and A. pseudoplatanus were more efficient as indicators of Cu, Mn and Pb accumulation, and the bark of B. pendula as an indicator of Zn. The use of different parts of plants for the purpose of biomonitoring can reach its full potential in areas where there is no developed network of monitoring stations for air quality.

In this study, the bark of Acer platanoides L., Acer pseudoplatanus L. and Betula pendula Roth was examined in order to evaluate their ability for biomonitoring purposes in the three urban municipalities in Belgrade city which is affected by different industrial activities and traffic. The concentration of Cu, Mn, Pb and Zn were measured using ICP-OES. The results obtained in this study indicate the regularity in the spatial distribution of the examined elements, ie the highest concentrations were measured in the tree bark from the park in the municipality of Palilula. It was established that the bark of A. platanoides and A. pseudoplatanus retain higher concentration of Cu, Pb and Mn in relation to the bark of B. pendula, but that the accumulation potential of examined species depends not only on the characteristics of the bark, but also on specific habitat conditions. The bark of B. pendula showed good potential for Zn accumulation. Based on the obtained data, it can be concluded that the bark of the examined species can be used as indicator of long-term air pollution, whereby the bark of A. platanoides and A. pseudoplatanus were more efficient as indicators of Cu, Mn and Pb accumulation, and the bark of B. pendula as an indicator of Zn. The use of different parts of plants for the purpose of biomonitoring can reach its full potential in areas where there is no developed network of monitoring stations for air quality.",

AB  - The topsoil is the most exposed, and contains the highest concentrations of potentially toxic elements (PTEs). The increased content of PTEs in the soil is directly related to anthropogenic inflow, and due to their toxicity, persistence and high bioaccumulation potential, PTEs pose a serious threat to human health and the environment. In order to determine the negative effects that PTEs have on living beings, numerous researches and experiments have been performed on various living models (organisms), so that the findings can be applied to assess health risks to humans.
This chapter aimed to provide a brief overview of the current literature concerning the impact of PTEs from soil on human health, and also to highlight current national legislation and their shortcomings. The authors provided an insight into the latest world and European methodologies for health risk assessment, as well as a proposal for their implementation at the national level. The main problem represents the literary inconsistency, which is why it should be of worldwide interest to reduce the differences in legal regulations at the global level.
When assessing the risk to human health, it is necessary to first identify the pollutant (agent), and then determine the doses at which these effects are manifested. The third step in health risk assessment is exposure, which involves the contact of the individual with pollutants. The most complete methodology was presented by the United States Environmental Protection Agency (USEPA), which has been dealing with this issue for many years and is constantly improving it, and integrates the most recent data from the world's agencies. The author's recommendation is that the adoption of laws related to the assessment of health risks of PTEs from soil to humans should be harmonized with the norms defined by the USEPA, which would significantly improve existing health system and quality of life.

AB  - Soil pollution with potentially toxic elements (PTEs) and their impact on human health has become an increasingly serious worldwide concern. The content of ten PTEs (As, Co, Cr, Cu, Fe, Mn, Ni, Pb, Sr and Zn) in soil samples from urban parks in Pančevo, Smederevo, Obrenovac and Belgrade (Serbia) were measured in order to evaluate their possible health risk in this study. The concentration of As, Co, Cr, Fe, Mn and Sr were within values described for upper continental crust, unlike Cu and Pb content at all sampling sites, Ni in Pančevo, Smederevo and Obrenovac and Zn in Belgrade which exceeded values described for upper continental crust. Their increased content is conditioned by the nature of the geological substrate, industrial activity in the environment, as well as traffic. Analysis of the health risks showed that children are more susceptible to non-carcinogenic and carcinogenic health effects of PTEs compared to adults, and that oral ingestion has the highest potential risk both for adults and children. Lead poses a potential non-carcinogenic risk to children through ingestion pathway. The carcinogenic risk was within the acceptable limits. The results of this study could be useful in providing basic information about the PTEs content in selected urban parks and the health risk status of people inhabiting these areas.

AB  - This study investigated the effects of proximity to different contamination sources, such as a coal mine, thermal power plants and fly ash disposal sites, in three Belgrade municipalities (Obrenovac, Lazarevac and Surčin) on agricultural soil contamination with As, Cd, Cr, Cu, Fe, Hg, Mn, Ni, Pb, and Zn. Concentrations of As, Cr, Cu, Ni, Pb and Zn were within the reference range for European soils and did not exceed the limit thresholds set by national legislation, except for Cr in Lazarevac and Ni at all the examined sites. The highest concentrations of As, Cr, Cu and Ni were measured in soil from Lazarevac, with the largest differences determined for As, Cr, and particularly Ni. The high Ni content in soil samples in Lazarevac indicates potential risk from the toxic effects of this element in the soil, close to the mine, the Kolubara-A thermal power plant and the ash dump. However, overall, values obtained for ecological risk indices were low, meaning that there is negligible enrichment and contamination of soil with the tested elements at the study sites and, therefore, no potential ecological risk to the environment or agricultural crop production.

AB  - Species of the genus Teucrium are widely distributed, mainly in the sandy and rocky
areas of the Mediterranean, Europe, North Africa and in temperate parts of Asia, especially
southwestern Asia. Three which stand out for their medicinal properties, as confirmed by their
use in traditional phytotherapy worldwide, are Teucrium chamaedrys (wall germander), T.
montanum (mountain germander) and T. polium (felty germander).
Out of the 55 ethnobotanical studies analysed, T. chamaedrys was mentioned in 34, T.
polium in 23, and T. montanum in 11. T. chamaedrys and T. polium are used most often by the
people of Asia Minor and the western Balkans, while T. montanum is most popular in the latter
region. Their aerial parts are used most frequently to prepare infusions or decoctions, which are
mostly taken internally (84,2%), while external application is rarer (9,2%).
Ethnobotanical research showed these species are most commonly used to treat
gastrointestinal problems (indigestion, gastric pain, diarrhoea, jaundice, cirrhosis, as painkillers
and for biliary tract purification), problems involving heart and blood vessel functioning
(haemorrhoids, hypertension, anaemia, and blood purification), and respiratory problems (colds,
flu, fevers, tuberculosis, lung cancer and as a febrifuge); they are also valued as a treatment for
diabetes. In Bosnia and Herzegovina and Serbia, T. montanum is one of the most popular plants
in traditional medicine, which, according to locals’ beliefs, ‘heals every disease’.
However, despite the obvious, pronounced favourable impact on human wellbeing, there
have been reported incidents of infusions or decoctions of the Teucrium species investigated
having a detrimental effect on people’s health, particularly causing hepatitis. Therefore, to avoid
this, the overall health of the patient, the dosage and treatment duration must be considered.
Hence, further research into T. chamaedrys, T. polium and T. montanum should be undertaken,
focussing on the pharmacological aspect, so as to eliminate or minimise any potential side
effects.

T. polium у 23, а T. montanum у 11 студија. T. chamaedrys и T. polium најчешће користи
становништво Мале Азије и западног Балкана, док је врста T. montanum најпопуларнија у
региону западног Балкана. Надземни делови ових биљака се најчешће користе за
припрему инфузија или декокта, који се углавном употребљавају орално (84,2%), док је
спољашња примена ређа (9,2%). Етноботаничка истраживања су показала да се T. chamaedrys, T. polium и T.
montanum најчешће користе за лечење гастроинтестиналних проблема (пробавне сметње, бол у желуцу, дијареја, жутица, цироза, за чишћeње жучних путева и као лекови против
болова), болести срца и крвних судова (хемороиди, хипертензија, анемија и детоксикација
крви) и респираторних проблема (прехлада, грип, грозница, туберкулоза, рак плућа и као
фебрифуга). Такође, веома су значајне у лечењу дијабетеса. У Босни и Херцеговини и
Србији, T. montanum је једна од најпопуларнијих биљака у традиционалној медицини, која
према веровањима локалног становништва „лечи сваку болест“.
Међутим, упркос изразито повољном утицају на људско здравље, забележени су

AB  - Urban areas and associated human activities have induced anthropogenic emissions of potentially toxic elements (PTEs), which can present risk to living organisms and ecosystems in case of enriched levels. To identify the concentrations of PTEs, and to assess their impact on researched plants, leaf and soil samples of Juglans regia L.(walnut) were collected from urban parks in Pancevo, Smederevo and Belgrade. Subsequently, concentrations of Cu, Mn, Sr and Zn, photosynthetic efficiency and morphological symptoms of damage were analyzed. The results obtained showed that Cu and Zn concentrations in Belgrade and Smederevo were above average values described for global soils, indicating their anthropogenic origin. The leaf analysis revealed deficient content of Cu and Zn in Pancevo, Cu and Mn in Smederevo and toxic Sr content at all sites. The Fv/Fm values in leaves of J. regia were lower than the empirically determined optimal values, indicating photoinhibition of PSII due to the accumulation of physiological and morphological leaf damages. Results of this study suggest that J. regia does not represent good selection for bioindication and/or biomonitoring of pollution in urban environments, except in case of Sr, where it can be used as a potential bioindicator.

AB  - The primary focus of this research was the chemical fractionation of potentially toxic
elements (PTEs) and their presence in several industrialised cities in Serbia. Furthermore, their
origin, contamination levels, and environmental and human health risks were assessed. The results
indicated that the examined soils were characterised by slightly higher Cu, Ni, Pb, and Zn levels than
those set by European and national regulations. These elevated Cu, Pb, and Zn concentrations were
caused by intensive traffic and proximity to industry, whereas the higher Ni levels were a result of
the specific geological substrate of the soil in the study area. The environmental risk was found to
be low and there was no enrichment/contamination of the soil with these elements, except in the
case of Pb, for which moderate to significant enrichment was found. Lead also poses a potential
non-carcinogenic risk to children through ingestion and requires special attention due to the fact
that a significant proportion of this element was present in the tested soil samples in a potentially
available form. Analysis of the health risks showed that children are more at risk than adults from
contaminants and that ingestion is the riskiest exposure route. The carcinogenic risk was within the
acceptable limits.

AB  - Land degradation and desertification (LDD) is one of the greatest ecological challenges of today, with climate change resulting from anthropogenic factors a major cause of it. Recent projections of LDD in the Mediterranean region indicate a gradual widening of arid areas due to increased aridity and global warming by the end of the 21st century. Therefore, this study used the MEDALUS method to identify sensitivity to LDD in Western Serbia between 1986 and 2005 and to assess possible effects of climate change (RCP4.5 and RCP8.5 scenarios) on land degradation processes by the end of the 21st century. Likewise, analysis of possible major drivers of degradation was conducted using principal component analysis (PCA) and multiple linear regression analysis (MLRA). The study revealed that degradation processes in the study area were found to be most influenced by anthropogenic drivers (34.4%), less so by natural/anthropogenic ones (23.5%), and least by natural factors (20.1%). Results also showed that critical areas of LDD susceptibility account for nearly 37% of the study area, transitional areas cover 35%, while 27% constitutes potentially safe areas. Additionally, critical areas were projected to expand by 33.6% (RCP4.5) and 51.7% (RCP8.5) by 2100 as a result of predicted temperature increases and a reduction in precipitation in the study area. This study also revealed that the Standardised Precipitation-Evapotranspiration Index (SPEI) better explains the impact of climate change on LDD than other indices, bearing in mind the capacity of this index to detect temporal oscillations in drought in the context of climate change, and it is therefore a reliable climate parameter for this method.

Therefore, this study used the MEDALUS method to identify sensitivity to LDD in Western Serbia between 1986 and 2005 and to assess possible effects of climate change (RCP4.5 and RCP8.5 scenarios) on land degradation processes by the end of the 21st century. Likewise, analysis of possible major drivers of degradation was conducted using principal component analysis (PCA) and multiple linear regression analysis (MLRA). The study revealed that degradation processes in the study area were found to be most influenced by anthropogenic drivers (34.4%), less so by natural/anthropogenic ones (23.5%), and least by natural factors (20.1%). Results also showed that critical areas of LDD susceptibility account for nearly 37% of the study area, transitional areas cover 35%, while 27% constitutes potentially safe areas. Additionally, critical areas were projected to expand by 33.6% (RCP4.5) and 51.7% (RCP8.5) by 2100 as a result of predicted temperature increases and a reduction in precipitation in the study area. This study also revealed that the Standardised Precipitation-Evapotranspiration Index (SPEI) better explains the impact of climate change on LDD than other indices, bearing in mind the capacity of this index to detect temporal oscillations in drought in the context of climate change, and it is therefore a reliable climate parameter for this method.",

AB  - Concentrations of potentially toxic elements (PTEs) (Al, As, Cd, Cr, Cu, Ni, Pb, and Zn) were measured in topsoil samples collected from parks in the cities of Salzburg (Austria), Thessaloniki (Greece), and Belgrade (Serbia) in order to assess the distribution of PTEs in the urban environment, discriminate natural (lithogenic) and anthropogenic contributions, identify possible sources of pollution, and compare levels of pollution between the cities. An assessment of the health risks caused by exposure to PTEs through different pathways was also conducted. The study revealed that, with the exception of Pb in Salzburg, levels of PTEs in the soils in polluted urban parks were higher than in unpolluted ones, but still lower than those recorded in other European soils. Results of sequential analyses showed that Al, Cr, and Ni were found in residual phases, proving their predominantly lithogenic origin and their low mobility. In contrast, the influence of anthropogenic factors on Cu, Pb, and Zn was evident. Site-dependent variations showed that the highest concentrations of As, Cu, Pb, and Zn of anthropogenic origin were recorded in Salzburg, while the highest levels of Al, Cr, and Ni of lithogenic origin were recorded in Belgrade and Thessaloniki, which reflects the specificity of the geological substrates. Results obtained for the health risk assessment showed that no human health risk was found for either children or adults.

AB  - Optimal uptake of micronutrients (B, Cu, Fe, Mn, and Zn) and managing the potentially
toxic elements (PTEs) (Co, Cr, Ni, Pb, and Sr) in the ranges not detrimental to plant function may
be linked to improving plants’ healthy growth and the ability to provide ecosystem services. We
investigated concentrations, mobility, and potential availability of potentially toxic elements (PTEs)
in soil samples from polluted and non-polluted municipal parks in Reading (UK) and Belgrade
(Serbia) and their impact on elemental concentrations in Tilia leaves. We aimed to identify common
limiting factors potentially affecting the growth/healthy function of this widely-used tree species.
Levels of all elements in soil were below limits established by the directive of European Communities,
except for Ni at Belgrade sites. Content of Co, Cr, Cu, Fe, Ni, Pb, and Zn in soluble fraction at
all locations was <10%, indicating low mobility; B showed moderate mobility (11.1–20.7%), Mn
(6.5–55.6%), and Sr—high (44–76.3%). Principal Component Analysis of Tilia leaf tissues showed
a different capacity for uptake/accumulation of PTEs in different locations. Findings indicate the
complexity of local edaphic influences on plants’ elemental uptake and the risk of those leading to
deficiency of important micronutrients, which may impede trees’ function and thus the ability to
optimally provide ecosystem services.

AB  - This research represents a comparative analysis of the effect of Pb on the concentration of photosynthetic pigments (chlorophyll a and total carotenoids) in deciduous Tilia sp and in the coniferous Pinus nigra species in two cities in Serbia that are exposed to different types of pollution. The aims were to determine which species is more efficient in Pb accumulation and to analyze the difference in chlorophyll a and total carotenoids content. Also, the potential of selected species to be grown in polluted environments was assessed. Results obtained showed that both species accumulated Pb in small amounts, and that samples from Belgrade contained higher amounts of Pb in relation to Smederevo. When comparing species, it was revealed that Tilia sp leaves had higher content of photosynthetic pigments in relation to P. nigra needles, probably due to epicuticular waxes that are present on needles and that selectively reflect blue light. Both species from Smederevo had higher content of photosynthetic pigments, however obtained difference between cities was not significant. This indicates that tested species are tolerant to Pb pollution and that can be recommended for planting in urban areas.

AB  - A large number of human activities result in the release of potentially toxic elements (PTEs) into the environment, which could lead to the degradation of riparian areas. This study aimed to evaluate the potential of Salix alba, Juglans regia and Populus nigra for the biomonitoring of PTEs in the riparian soils of the Sava River. Levels of seven PTEs (As, Cd, Cr, Cu, Ni, Pb and Zn) were measured in the soils, roots and leaves of plants at selected sampling sites and evaluated according to bioaccumulation and translocation factors. The obtained results showed that in riparian soils, As, Cr, Cu, Ni and Zn were at levels considered to be critical for plants. The levels of As, Cd, Cr, Ni and Zn measured in roots of Salix alba and As, Cr, Ni and Zn in its leaves were toxic for plant tissue. Toxic levels of Cr were also measured in the roots of Juglans regia and As in its leaves, as well as As and Cr in the roots of Populus nigra, and Zn in its leaves. Bioconcentration and translocation factors showed that S. alba and P. nigra have potential for the phytoextraction of Zn and Cd, while J. regia has potential for the phytoextraction of As. In terms of phytostabilization potential, S. alba proved to be good for the phytostabilization of Cd and Cu, and J. regia for the phytostabilization of Cr, As, Ni and Pb, while P. nigra showed potential for the phytostabilization of Cr, Ni, Pb and Cu.

The obtained results showed that in riparian soils, As, Cr, Cu, Ni and Zn were at levels considered to be critical for plants. The levels of As, Cd, Cr, Ni and Zn measured in roots of Salix alba and As, Cr, Ni and Zn in its leaves were toxic for plant tissue. Toxic levels of Cr were also measured in the roots of Juglans regia and As in its leaves, as well as As and Cr in the roots of Populus nigra, and Zn in its leaves. Bioconcentration and translocation factors showed that S. alba and P. nigra have potential for the phytoextraction of Zn and Cd, while J. regia has potential for the phytoextraction of As. In terms of phytostabilization potential, S. alba proved to be good for the phytostabilization of Cd and Cu, and J. regia for the phytostabilization of Cr, As, Ni and Pb, while P. nigra showed potential for the phytostabilization of Cr, Ni, Pb and Cu.",

AB  - This paper presents the results of a one-year decomposition experiment on Quercus frainetto Ten. and Quercus cerris L. leaf litter in natural conditions. The decomposition rate constant was 0.831 yr−1 (Q. frainetto) and 0.458 yr−1 (Q. cerris). For the initial chemical composition of the oaks’ litter, differences were not found in concentrations of lignin and fats, waxes and oil fractions, but were found for water-soluble matter, hemicellulose and cellulose. Later decomposition stages indicated that lignin and fats, waxes and oil fractions influenced differences in both oaks’ litter decay rates. Ana-tomical analysis revealed differences between the oaks in leaf mesophyll and epidermis but not in the entire leaf and lower epidermis. Results after 12 months of the experiment revealed that 48.04% of the entire leaf, 53.30% of mesophyll, 32.93% of lignified upper and 47.67% of lower epidermis in Q. frainetto, and 28.70% of the entire leaf, 31.60% of mesophyll, 25.17% of lignified upper and 20.93% of lower epidermis in Q. cerris were decomposed. Reduction in leaf thickness mainly was caused by the reduction of mesophyll parenchyma, composed of easily degradable plant materials. Leaf tissues with the most recalcitrant plant materials were lignified upper epidermis, covered by a thick cuticle composed of fats and waxes, and xylem within the leaf veins
