Ecosystems of inland saline waters play a significant role in the biosphere and human life. Various articles this Special Issue are devoted to wide range issues their study management. This introductory article gives general overview types on planet, as well features ecosystems, reflected 18 Issue. Attention is also paid modern problems conservation integrated sustainable use aquatic ecosystems...

Remote sensing of lake water quality assumes there is no universal method or algorithm that can be applied in a general way on all inland waters, which usually have different in-water components affecting their optical properties. Depending the place and time year, dynamics, particular water, non-tailor-designed algorithms lead to large errors lags quantification parameters, such as suspended m...

Abstract Non-indigenous parasite fauna of freshwater fish has not been studied extensively in Croatia, despite the long history introductions and translocations alien species into inland waters. Negative implications for aquaculture production wild native have frequently associated with introduction non-native species. Hence, present paper attempts to lay out a historical overview suspected loc...

The purpose of this study is to assess the performance of an adaptive model (AM) in estimating chlorophyll-a concentration (Chl-a) in optically complex inland waters. Chl-a modeling using remote sensing data is usually based on a single model that generally follows an exponential function. The estimates produced by such models are relatively accurate at high Chl-a concentrations, but accuracy d...
