o:1582 Erosion Processes in the Drainage Basin of the Predejane River (Southeastern Serbia) in the Period 1953-2012 en Abstract The first organised torrent control works in Serbia started in Grdelica Gorge in the late 19th century because the area was the locus of the most intensive erosion processes. They required the implementation of various methods and structures for torrent control and soil protection against erosion. The works were carried out in drainage basins (biological and biotechnical works) and in torrent channels (technical works). The effects of the performed works on the state of erosion in the drainage basin of the Predejane River were studied through a comparative analysis of the situation in 1953 and in 2012, with the aim of upgrading the methods of water erosion and torrential flood control. The intensity of erosion processes in 1953 was determined on the basis of available erosion maps, whereas in 2012 it was determined by using satellite images and field research. The values of Z erosion coefficient for all reference periods were calculated after Prof Gavrilović’s methodology and then used to conduct a comparative analysis of the obtained data. erosion process intensity, drainage basin, torrent control works, Serbia 1552100 978-99976-632-7-6 1552102 http://agrosym.ues.rs.ba/article/showpdf/BOOK%20OF%20PROCEEDINGS%202016%20FINAL.pdf 91552100 6216984 2023-04-06T10:40:41.137Z 44 yes 46 Соња Брауновић 0000-0002-1387-6955 46 Михаило Раткнић 46 Татјана Раткнић 46 Љубинко Ракоњац 0000-0002-8736-6771 46 Александар Лучић 0000-0002-4473-1791 2016 application/pdf 923681 https://unilib.phaidrabg.rs/o:1582 no yes 1 70 92000004 2016 VII International Scientific Agricultural Symposium “Agrosym 2016”, Jahorina, Book of proceedings 1808 1814 University of East Sarajevo, Faculty of Agriculture 2016
