Monitoring the status of the target fish species Canostrini's Goby (Pomatoschistus canestrinii) and the Dalmatian barbelgudgeon (Aulopyge huegelii)

Estuary ecosystems, such as the Krka River estuary, are biologically highly productive systems with net primary production rates among the highest in the world

The project "Investigation of the tufa barrier of Manojlovac waterfall using remote sensing" is focused on the development, application, and evaluation of modern remote sensing methods in the documentation, analysis, and monitoring of the state of the tufa barriers

The scientific project "The research and inventory of forest habitat fungi in the Krka National Park" was intended to investigate the biodiversity of aboveground and underground species from the two largest fungal divisions, Ascomycota (askomiceti) and Basidiomycota (bazidiomiceti), in the Krka National Park, and was conducted by Dr. Željko Zgrablić, Dr. Armin Mešić, Dr. Zdenko Tkalčec, Dr. Ivana Kušan, and Neven Matočec.

In Miljacka II cave, a species new to science has been described – Spirolocammina petrae, the first freshwater agglutinated tubothalamid foraminifer in the world

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

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

During 2024 and 2025, the Ruđer Bošković Institute conducted research on Visovac and Brljan Lakes

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
