AB  - In urban areas, the presence of toxic microelements in the environment due to the anthropogenic impact (primarily of traffic) poses a serious problem. The negative impact of pollution on populated urban areas is particularly manifest in children. To establish the level of microelement pollution, at 40 localities in the municipality of Stari grad in Belgrade we sampled surface soil near kindergartens and schools during 2013. By applying remote sensing and GIS, small green areas were selected and the spatial distribution of microelements was determined. Because of their different origins and anthropogenic impact, three heavy metals, Cd, Ni and Zn, were examined; the level of soil pollution was assessed by determining their total content, pollution index (Pi), enrichment factor (EF), single risk factor (Ei) and ecological risk index (RI). The highest concentration established was that of Zn, with a mean value of 223.11 mg/kg. The Pi values for Zn (2.96) and Cd (2.98) were similar. Due to the prevailing geological substrate, Ni had the lowest EF (0.75) and Ei (3.09). The effect of the geological substrate on the Ni content was also confirmed by its very high concentration along the banks of the rivers Sava and Danube, while the total contents and factors for Cd and Zn indicated that they were concentrated in the city center. Our results show that 30.72% of the green areas in the city center have a moderate RI, which indicates that the examined pollutants do not present a danger to children.

AB  - This paper aims at assessment of soil erosion potential and its spatial distribution on the 1235 km(2) area of municipality Pirot located in south-eastern Serbia. The study was conducted by using well-known Universal Soil Loss Equation (USLE) model due to its modest data demand and transparent structure. The erosion factors of USLE were collected and processed through a GIS-based approach offering ease of elaboration and manipulation of erosive factors. All the erosive factors were determined on a 30 x 30 m cell basis and multiplied in order to obtain the map of potential average annual soil erosion. The average annual soil loss was estimated at 8.65 tha(-1)yr(-1) classifying the area of Pirot municipality under low erosion rate category. More than 80% of the municipality area was characterized by insignificant ( lt  3 tha(-1)yr(-1)), and low erosion category (3-10 tha(-1)yr(-1)). Around 7.8% of the area was found to be under moderate erosion category (10-20 tha(-1)yr(-1)). High erosion category was found on 6.8% of the area (20-40 tha(-1) yr(-1)), while there is around 5.2% of the area under very high erosion category (>40 tha(-1)yr(-1)). It means that almost 15000 ha of the area of Pirot municipality are facing high and very high erosion. The analysis of vertical distribution of erosion processes pointed out that the zone between 500 and 800 m a.s.l suffers more from erosion than other elevation zones mainly due to land management. The results of this work are in agreement with the soil erosion map of Serbia, the sediment yield measurements in the basin and with other, more detailed, studies in the municipality. Therefore, the presented methodology could be applied as a framework for the evaluation of erosive factors on soil resources in Serbia when limited data are available. The outputs of these studies can be used for the identification of vulnerable areas on a cell-basis and for programming of protection measures.

AB  - Stara Planina is one of the centers of plant diversity not only of our country, but also of the Balkan Peninsula, with 1195 plant species in 33 families and 455 genera. Throughout the region, and especially in the mountainous belt, thanks to inadequate utilization (pasture and mowing), and other anthropogenic impacts, most of the pastures are more or less degraded. Many plant species (cultivated, medicinal, spontaneous native, trees, etc.) are known as the hyper sinks of individual trace elements. The concentrations of some heavy metals (Cu, Zn, Pb, Ni, Cr and Mn) were determined in the (nine) most frequent species of the pastures of Stara Planina, locality Javor, aiming at the identification of the bioaccumulation of these elements.
