The research and inventory of forest habitat fungi in the Krka National Park
Znanstveni projekt „Istraživanje i inventarizacija gljiva šumskih staništa na području NP Krka“ za cilj je imao istražiti bioraznolikost nadzemnih i podzemnih vrsta iz dva najveća odjeljka gljiva, Ascomycota (askomiceti) i Basidiomycota (bazidiomiceti), na području NP Krka, a proveli su ga dr. sc. Željko Zgrablić, dr. sc. Armin Mešić, dr. sc. Zdenko Tkalčec, dr. sc. Ivana Kušan i Neven Matočec
New species of freshwater foraminifera described for Krka National Park
In Miljacka II cave, a species new to science has been described – Spirolocammina petrae, the first freshwater agglutinated tubothalamid foraminifer in the world
A new cave-dwelling species, the Krka beetle Bryaxis krkensis, has been discovered in the Krka NP
The species was named after the Krka National Park, as it was described on the basis of individuals (males and females) collected in a tufa cave in the area of Bilušića buk, a typical site
Research of Eastern Sub-Mediterranean dry grasslands of the order Scorzoneretalia villosae Kovačević 1959 (NATURA 2000 code 62A0) in Krka NP
Grasslands of the order Scorzoneretalia villosae (NATURA 2000, code 62A0) are a threatened habitat type and their conservation is of both national and European significance
Monitoring organic loading of Visovac and Brljan Lakes
During 2024 and 2025, the Ruđer Bošković Institute conducted research on Visovac and Brljan Lakes
The analysis of water exchange in Visovac Lake and the influence of the lake system on the transformation of runoff
The Krka River is characterized by a marked change in its course between river and lakes, which is a consequence of the growth of tufa barriers
Determining the state of the population of softmouth trout
Determining the state of the population of softmouth trout (Salmo obtusirostris) using eDNA and visual census method.
Macroalgae of the Krka River waterfalls
The tufa waterfalls of the Krka River are a dynamic freshwater ecosystem, in which the tufa-building process is closely tied to specific macroscopic conglomerates of algae
The project "An investigation into the state and composition of protists in the tufa barriers of the Krka River"
The aim of the project “An investigation into the state and composition of protists in the travertine barriers of the Krka River” was to describe the community of protists in the attached communities of the tufa barriers during the spring and autumn of 2024
