A 3-year systematic investigation (2007–2010) of water chemistry using conventional and stable isotope tracers helped us delineate hydro-biogeochemical processes in the karstic Krka River watershed. By mineralogical and stable isotopic examination of tufa deposits and combining the results with water chemistry, we were able to evaluate the suitability of tufa …
Nitrogen (N) is an essential nutrient for plant growth and one which has the greatest effect on the yield. Since effective indigenous sources are insufficient by far to support current levels of global agricultural outputs, N is intensively applied by farmers in the form of N-based fertilisers. However, excessive rates …
