COBISS.SI-ID: 43546413Statistical and time-series analyses of daily discharge and water level values have been performed. Average and extreme annual and seasonal duration of high waters, and their amplitudes have been determined. The period of the greatest possibility of a high intensity event occurrence is the cold part of the year, tied to the mid-autumn rainfall peak, winter rains and snowmelting. The gained results improve the understanding of poljes’ high waters occurrence and will contribute to a more careful land use planning.

COBISS.SI-ID: 43537197On the Planina Polje continuous monitoring of water level, electrical conductivity and temperature was established at the main springs, ponors and water active caves located around the polje. Data analysis was combined with several groundwater models of different complexities. The models attempt to reproduce the behaviour of the polje from the simplest to the most complex observed processes under various hydrogeological conditions. Results improve the current understanding of flooding on of the Planina Polje and show the importance of combining direct measurements with numerical modelling.

COBISS.SI-ID: 41744173The paper addresses the notion of user-related issues in the context of flood sustainable spatial planning. It considers the co-evolution of natural and social systems, where understanding changes in one requires understanding of changes in the other, rather than treating them separately. This is reflected in the development of the conceptual integral model for flood sustainable planning and represents a powerful base and determination for setting up user-centred module as one of the components of the model. To understand environmental problems and help design effective policies, it is essential to understand the underlying human drivers. By introducing daily routine analysis of the selected user-profile, backgrounded by the method of behaviour mapping it addresses small – but important – data in the context of usually big-data related analysis of high-water modelling, and by this aims to bring the dynamics of everyday living into the system of flood sustainable planning. This user-centred module is developed and tested in the studied area of Planinsko polje, typical karst overflow polje that is frequently flooded. This novel approach addressing people’s life and their interactions with space opens new perspectives on floods related issues and can act as an alternative or complement to standards and conditions in spatial planning measures and processes.
