GIS analysis of land cover changes on the territory of the Prokuplje Municipality. [PDF]
ScientificWorldJournal, 2014 The monitoring of the territory of Prokuplje Municipality was done based on 1 : 25,000 topographic maps in three different time periods (1969, 1974, and 1984) and land cover map in 2012. Analogous topographic maps done in 1969, 1974, and 1984 were used, while in 2012 the land cover map obtained by using CORINE‐like approach was used.

Characterization and Remediation of Chlorinated Volatile Organic Contaminants in the Vadose Zone
Vadose Zone Journal, Volume 12, Issue 4, Page 1-17, November 2013., 2013 Contamination of vadose‐zone systems by chlorinated solvents is widespread and poses significant potential risk to human health through impacts on groundwater quality and vapor intrusion. Soil vapor extraction (SVE) is the presumptive remedy for such contamination and has been used successfully for innumerable sites; however, SVE operations typically ...

Vadose Zone Journal, Volume 10, Issue 3, Page 884-899, August 2011., 2011 The structure of the critical zone (CZ) is a result of tectonic, lithogenic, and climatic forcings that shape the landscape across geologic time scales. The CZ structure can be probed to measure contemporary rates of regolith production and hillslope evolution, and its fluids and solids can be sampled to determine how structure affects CZ function as a
