Programme 2021 - 2027 Interreg VI-A IPA Croatia - Bosnia and Herzegovina - Montenegro

Date of latest update: 2025-12-15

Description

Description (EN):

Inland waterbodies and wetland habitats are extremely important in terms of biodiversity conservation. Thanks to the abundance of water surrounded by karst-hilly terrain, the biological diversity in Vrana Lake in Croatia, Deran Lake in Bosnia and Herzegovina, and Skadar Lake in Montenegro is extremely valuable. As exceptional habitats for numerous plant and animal species and areas of special specificity and biodiversity, all three lakes and the surrounding areas have been declared as protected areas - Vrana Lake and Deran Lake as Nature Parks, and Skadar Lake as National Park. The purpose of the SMART-Water project is to preserve biodiversity through water quality monitoring by hybrid data collection from different sensors. The water environment serves as a source of food and drink, allows for agriculture, production, recreation, and tourism, and accepts large amounts of water, potentially preventing floods. Water quality is deteriorating as a result of technological advancements, industrial production, agricultural activities, and rapid urbanization. Anthropogenic exploitation, eutrophication, inorganic and organic pollutants, morphological changes, population growth, and the effects of climate change, such as acidification or rising water temperatures, increased nutrient input and primary output, deteriorated water quality, reduced biodiversity, and jeopardized the ecological functioning of inland waters globally. Main cross border territorial challenges are: 1. absence of cross-border coordination 2. overexploitation and pollution of aquatic environments in one country might threaten ecosystem in another 3. data gaps for monitoring transboundary waterbodies and their connections to the sea Climate change's impact on lake water quality, lake ecosystem health, and lake ecology is a growing stressor for lakes. Lake eutrophication threatens the ecological, social, cultural, spiritual, and economic benefits provided by these ecosystems. There is no life without water, and the demand for water is increasing. However, the number of polluters is also increasing, so it is critical to ensure strict monitoring of water quality and, in the case of pollution, enable prompt decision-making by the authorities in charge of managing lakes, such as Public Institution Nature Park Vrana Lake, Public Enterprise Hutovo Blato Nature Park for Deran Lake, and National Parks of Montenegro for Skadar Lake. Water quality is determined using a variety of sensors, and as part of the SMART-Water project, a hybrid model of data collection from a variety of sensors will be developed. SMART-Water intends to improve inland water quality monitoring and inspection procedures through the use of artificial intelligence models and multi-sensor integration with geospatial data. By developing a collaborative web GIS platform, all decision makers for research areas in Croatia, Bosnia and Herzegovina, and Montenegro will be participating. By integrating various data sources and models into a unified platform and promoting joint cross-border cooperation and communication, SMART-Water takes a unique approach. SMART-Water also includes community engagement activities to raise citizen awareness and participation in water quality monitoring and protection. Main SMART-Water outputs are: 1. Inland water quality monitoring database updated for three research areas 2. Joint activity plan for data collection and processing for inland water quality management 3. Online satellite remote sensing product - AI/ML predictive model for inland water quality monitoring in near-real-time 4. Web GIS platform with geospatial data at three research areas 5. Guidelines for implementing climate change water monitoring techniques 6. Education for public and training for lake authorities for new monitoring and inspection procedures. SMART-Water takes a novel approach by combining multiple data sources and models into a unified web GIS platform to provide comprehensive and real-time water quality data. SMART-Water addresses several common water quality challenges in the cross-border region, such as insufficient monitoring and data collection, a lack of stakeholders cooperation and communication, and the need to strengthen water management legislative and regulatory frameworks. SMART-Water seeks to establish a common framework for monitoring and managing the inland water quality, which requires cross-border cooperation. Water pollution is transboundary, and preventing and controlling transboundary water pollution requires a coordinated approach to monitoring and managing water quality. SMART-Water will facilitate the exchange of data and information on water quality among the region's countries, allowing them to work effectively together to address the issue of transboundary and interregional water pollution. A variety of socioeconomic and environmental factors that affect the quality and management of water resources are unique to the SMART-Water karst region.

Actual Achievements (EN):

During the first reporting period, the SMART-Water project made significant progress in improving inland water quality monitoring through technological advancements, research, and collaboration. Efforts focused on establishing a strong foundation for data-driven decision-making, enhancing monitoring techniques, and raising public awareness. A key achievement was the development of an advanced framework for water quality monitoring. Research on modern technologies, including remote sensing, UAV-based data collection, and GIS analysis, helped identify the most effective methods for collecting and analyzing data. A comprehensive assessment of strengths, weaknesses, opportunities, and threats (SWOT) provided valuable insights to optimize monitoring approaches. Field research activities were carried out to assess the current state of inland water quality. These included hydrological assessments, water sample collection, and laboratory testing, ensuring a data-driven approach to monitoring. The findings are shaping improved water quality management strategies tailored to regional needs. A GIS-based platform is under development to integrate diverse data sources, such as satellite imagery, UAV data, and GIS databases. The platform will enable more accurate environmental monitoring by organizing and analyzing collected data efficiently. A dedicated geodatabase has been established to support structured data management and facilitate informed decision-making. Cross-border collaboration was strengthened through site visits and knowledge-sharing activities. These exchanges improved coordination and alignment of research strategies, fostering a unified approach to water quality monitoring across different locations. Public engagement was also a priority. An awareness campaign was launched to inform local communities about the importance of water quality preservation. Educational materials were distributed, social media platforms were utilized, and outreach activities encouraged community participation in water conservation efforts. In addition to fieldwork and awareness activities, scientific research advanced with a focus on optimizing water sampling strategies. Results and insights were shared through research papers and participation in international scientific forums. Communication efforts ensured visibility for the project through a dedicated website, media outreach, and presentations at scientific events. Project updates were disseminated via various channels, including traditional and digital media. Regular coordination meetings ensured smooth implementation and progress monitoring. Moving forward, activities will continue to refine monitoring techniques, improve data collection processes, and enhance water quality management approaches. The first reporting period has set a solid foundation for the project's objectives, demonstrating progress in environmental monitoring, scientific research, and stakeholder engagement. During the second reporting period, the SMART-Water partnership made substantial progress in scientific research, environmental monitoring, and stakeholder engagement, advancing the goal of sustainable inland water management in Croatia, Bosnia and Herzegovina, and Montenegro. Monthly water sampling and in situ measurements were conducted at Vransko, Deransko, and Skadar Lakes, covering key parameters such as chlorophyll-a, turbidity, transparency, and dissolved oxygen. Data were systematically uploaded to support AI/ML model refinement under Activity A.2.1, improving predictive monitoring. A standardized Field Sampling Record Sheet was developed, incorporating meteorological data, field observations, and photographic documentation, ensuring consistency across pilot sites. The partnership prepared a technical report on the socio-economic impacts of water quality degradation, combining scientific and qualitative evidence to assess effects on biodiversity, public health, and economic sectors like agriculture, fisheries, and tourism. The report provides actionable recommendations for pollution prevention, monitoring improvement, and community education. Analytical work on collected datasets enabled the early identification of water quality risks, including eutrophication and algal blooms. Scenario types were defined, and risk indices were developed to classify potential threats. Spatial analyses identified hotspots where environmental and morphodynamic changes could affect ecosystems, recreation, and tourism. A systematic framework for scenario classification ensures consistency and reproducibility across all three lakes. A key scientific outcome was the co-creation of a conceptual framework and publication detailing a multi-criteria methodology for assessing water quality and geo-environmental risks, providing a harmonized scientific basis for transnational comparison. Public engagement was strengthened through educational workshops, outreach events in Hutovo Blato Nature Park, media coverage, conference presentations, and scientific publications, raising awareness of water protection and monitoring practices among students, local communities, and stakeholders. Overall, the second reporting period demonstrated the value of the SMART-Water partnership’s integrated approach, combining advanced monitoring, socio-economic assessment, and community engagement to support predictive modeling, evidence-based policymaking, and long-term sustainable management of inland water ecosystems.
