Introduction
Neretva Delta is dominated by thetraditional farming methods practiced inthe polder systems.
Delta’s canal network characteristics:• surface irrigation and drainage canals• carst aquifer dominated by the tidal
regime• replenished by the freshwater from
the upstream river flow,• adjacent protected salt marshes

Real-time monitoring
Real-time monitoring is focused oncontinuous real-time measurements.
Hydrometry :• surface water levels• index water velocity• shallow and deep piezometers• rain gauges,
Multiparameter water quality:• dissolved oxygen,• electrical conductivity,• total dissolved solids,• salinity,• pH,• oxidation reduction potential,• temperature,• nitrate• chloride

Objective
Objective of the project is to develop andimplement an advanced system forMonitoring, Forecasting and Reporting
the water and soil conditions in theNeretva Delta agroecosystem
Methodology
• Hydrological and geochemicalanalysis of historical data
• Selection of monitoring locations• Setup of real-time monitoring
system• Virtual platform for data acquisition,
data storage and data visualization• Validation of real-time monitoring
functionality• Spatial and temporal modelling of
salinization of surface- and ground-water
• Modelling of countermeasuresimpact on surface- and ground-water salinity
• Estimation of climate changeinduced ecosystem changes
• Mapping of salinization risk for soiland aquifer
• Dissemination for stakeholders
