ASSESSMENT OF CHEMICAL POLLUTION OF SELECTED LOCATIONS ON THE NIŠAVA AND THE ŠTIRA RIVERS BASED ON SPEAR PARAMETERS
View through CrossRef
Chemical pollutants have a significant impact on the decline of biodiversity in freshwater
ecosystems on a global scale. In this work, the SPEAR parameters was used to assess the
impact of pesticides and organic pollutants on aquatic ecosystems. These parameters are
based on the characteristics of aquatic macroinvertebrates that are sensitive to pesticides
and organic pollutants. The macroinvertebrate community was analysed at 3 sites on the
Štira River and 4 sites on the Nišava River. Based on the analysed community and the
determined values of SPEAR parameters values, it can be concluded that sites near and
downstream of cities are exposed to greater pressure and influence of pesticides and organic
pollution
