Today's building of facilities does not follow the study of the characteristics of the terrain on which the facility is constructed. The period of rapid construction, which can be called the "modern construction" does not follow the quality of constructed facilities. Usually it is the uncontrolled building, where is only important to build a facili...

Organic matter in Serbian Rendzina soils dependence on altitude and geographic regions was investigated. There was no regular dynamics of carbon and nitrogen content nor in C/N ratio, probably because of slight climatic variation among altitudes and regions, thus negligible differences in vegetation, organic litter and decomposition dynamics. Predi...
