Evaluation of geochemical processes and nitrate pollution sources at the Ljubljansko polje aquifer (Slovenia): A stable isotope perspective.
TL;DR: The message from this study is that to reduce the nitrogen load and improve water quality will involve containment and the careful management of sources from urban and agriculture inputs such as sewage-manure and fertilizers.

Isotopic and Chemical Constraints on the Biogeochemistry of Dissolved Inorganic Carbon and Chemical Weathering in the Karst Watershed of Krka River (Slovenia)
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors investigated the carbon transfer from the land ecosystem in the watershed of the Krka River, Slovenia, and found that the major solute composition of analysed waters is dominated by an input of HCO3 −, Ca2+ and Mg2+ originating from carbonate dissolution.

TL;DR: It is proposed that the pathway-specific differences Δδ(13)C(bk-lp) can be successfully explained by C4-C3 carbon allocation (flux) differences with greatest flux into the ACT pathway and lowest into the MVA pathways (when flux is higher, isotopic shift relative to source is smaller).

Stable isotopic and elemental characteristics of recent tufa from a karstic Krka River (south‐east Slovenia): useful environmental proxies?
TL;DR: In this paper, tufa samples from 16 consecutive barrages along a 13 km section of a groundwater-fed Krka River (Slovenia) were analyzed for their petrographical, mineralogical, elemental and stable carbon (δ13C) and oxygen isotope composition, to establish their relation to current climatic and hydrological conditions.

Measuring techniques for concentration and stable isotopologues of CO2 in a terrestrial ecosystem: A review
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors provide a basic overview of two different analytical measurement techniques, isotope ratio mass spectrometry (IRMS) and laser-absorption spectroscopy (LAS), which have been developed and utilized for monitoring of CO2 isotopologues in ecosystem.
