We have created a freely accessible GIS database with the results of tracer tests conducted in the Slovenian Karst. The database is updated every two years.
Most of the activities defined by annual contracts are aimed to support the actions of the Water Management Plan. Some of the tasks that were included in these contracts are: extension of the hydrological monitoring network to karst caves, review of the determination of the extent of groundwater bodies in the karst area, evaluation of the impact of a change in the groundwater regime on ecosystems at selected sites with the observed disappearance of the endemic cave salamander Proteus anguinus, spatial assessment of water table distribution in the selected karst areas, review of the groundwater recharge results of the model mGROWA-SI in karst areas, hydrological analysis aimed of the development of a conceptual model in the transboundary karst aquifer, etc.
The expert bases for the extension of the water quality monitoring network in the impact areas of point source pollution in karst aquifers were prepared.
