Human Impact on Danube Watershed Biodiversity in the XXI Century

Part of the book series: Geobotany Studies ((GEOBOT))

Abstract

Vrbas watershed is one of the most important in Bosnia and Herzegovina, because of the water volume and its biodiversity. Recent increase in human population density has caused disturbance of environmental conditions over the entire watershed. Its intensity varies in different tributaries, as well as different sections of the River Vrbas.
