Research paper thumbnail of Spatial and temporal patterns of precipitation in Montenegro

Data on mean monthly precipitation during the period 1961-2015 from 17 meteorological stations were used for the analysis. Four regions with different spatial precipitation regimes were identified by using the principal component analysis and the agglomerative hierarchical clustering method. A downward tendency in annual precipitation prevails over Montenegro. The most prominent reduction was present in the summer season. In contrast, precipitation increased during autumn. However, the majority of estimated trend values was low and statistically insignificant.

This paper presented hydrogeological and hydrological characteristics of the area and applied analyzes of other physical-geographic characteristics which are an essential indicator of the quality of groundwater. Applying various methods, we have obtained maps that shows different ways of groundwater pollution in karst. We analyzed spatial relationships and connections with individual socio-geographical components. Thought correlation methods we obtained results which provided conclusions for possible measures against pollution of groundwater in karst and karst in general.

The locality is called Duboki do. As the springs are used for drinking water supply this investigation is urgently needed. For the springs exist two hypotheses concerning their catchment area: I) from the high karst plateau, or II) from a topographically lower area. The stable H- and O-isotope ratios of water samples from the springs are compared with precipitation isotope data, to reveal the catchment area of the springs. The isotope results indicate that the catchment area of the springs is at higher altitude fitting to, and in good agreement with, winter precipitation from the high karst plateau of the planned land-fill locality.
