Abstract

Many studies have examined earthquake’s impacts on hydrological changes such as drying up and flooding of (water) wells, fluctuation of groundwater levels, and changes in water quality. This paper aims to present water quality changes in the aftermath of a November 2010 earthquake in Kraljevo. Water quality changes followed hydrological, geological, and geomorphological changes. The water parameter concentrations were measured before the earthquake in 2010 and after that in 2010 and 2011, as well as 2009 and 2012. The data from two hydrological stations were used: Kraljevo Zapadna Morava and Kraljevo Ibar. The Canadian Water Quality Index was applied for the calculation of water quality. This method defines the overall water quality and the specific quality of water used for drinking, aquatic habitats, recreation, irrigation, and livestock. A significant decline in the quality of water used for aquatic habitat and a less significant one in the overall quality and the quality of water used for irrigation was recorded in the hydrological station Zapadna Morava. Increased heavy metal concentrations were detected, which caused water quality impairment. A minor decline in the overall water quality and the quality of water used for aquatic habitats was recorded in the hydrological station Kraljevo Ibar.
