Hidrogeografske značilnosti in kakovostno stanje vodotokov v povirju Reke // Hydrogeographical characteristics and the quality of watercourses in the Reka River headwaters

Članek obravnava hidrogeografske značilnosti povirnega dela Reke. Predstavljene so vodna bilanca in odtočne značilnosti območja. Predstavljeni so rezultati meritev fizikalno-kemijskih parametrov na Reki in izbranih desnih pritokih Reke, opravljenih v štirih različnih vodnih stanjih med avgustom leta 2012 in januarjem leta 2013. Rezultati kažejo, da večina vodotokov nima kraškega zaledja ter, da na kakovost vode v povirju Reke vplivajo neurejene razmere na področju odvajanja odpadnih vod v naseljih. The article deals with hydrogeographical characteristics of the headwaters of the Reka River basin. Its water balance and drainage characteristics are presented. Results of the measurements of physico-chemical parameters in the Reka River and its selected right tributaries, carried out in four different hydrological conditions between August 2012 and January 2013, are presented. The results show, that most of the watercourses don’t appear to have karstic characteristics and that the quality of water in the upper course of the Reka basin is highly influenced by uncontrolled wastewater management in the settlements.
