“…The maximum value of the parameter before filling the accumulation basin was 51.5 TU in Brege, while in the period after filling it was 22.7 TU. 3 H activity concentrations higher than 17 TU are attributed to the impact of discharges from the NEK [37,38]. The values in October 2016, which are 3.5 times higher than the values in precipitation of Puste Ložice, are striking.…”

“…This refers to intergranular aquifers hydraulically connected to the river, as is the case in the Krško field and Vrbina aquifer, and points to the application of the research methodology for the study of surface water-groundwater interactions as a result of the damming of the Sava river for HPP Brežice. Some manuscripts present studies on the impact of river dams on surface and groundwater bodies (e.g., [31][32][33][34][35][36][37][38]). These studies mostly focus on large river systems after damming the river under different climatic conditions.…”

The impact of the damming of the Sava river for the Brežice hydroelectric power plant on the rise of the groundwater level was studied in the intergranular aquifer of the Krško field and the Vrbina area, Slovenia. The study is based on the application of hydrogen and oxygen isotopes (18O, 2H and 3H). Parameters were determined for precipitation, surface water, and groundwater for periods before and after the filling of the accumulation basin, with the aim of evaluating the groundwater–surface water interaction and to elucidate the impact of the hydroelectric dam on aquifer recharge processes. The results show the proportions of the surface water component in groundwater sampled from four wells at high and low water conditions, separately for the period before and after the filling the accumulation basin. After filling the accumulation basin, the proportion of the Sava river component at high water conditions increased from 60% to 80% in the Brege and Drnovo wells (drinking water resources), from 50% to 80% in the Cerklje well and to almost 100% in the near-river NEK well. Combined with previous studies, the results provide important information about the direction of groundwater flow in the aquifer and improve the conceptual model of the study site.

The increasing demand for radiation detection in many applications has led to demanding requirements for scintillators. Realizing low‐dose, pollution‐free, and reliable X‐ray detection has become a key technical challenge. Here, a triplet‐enhanced lanthanide radioluminescence (RL) material Ga3+/Tb3+ metallacrowns (Tb‐1) is reported. This Tb‐1 crystal emits bright green luminescence under ultraviolet light or X‐ray excitation, and the emission intensity is 286 and 242 times that of Tb3+ in inorganic salt, respectively. Tb‐1 crystal is further passivated by trioctylphosphine oxide (TOPO), and the enhanced RL intensity is equivalent to that of commercial Tl‐doped cesium iodide scintillator. In addition, RL of Tb‐1–TOPO has an extremely narrow full width at half maximum and an excellent linear response to the X‐ray dose rate. The detection limit is calculated to be 0.146 μGy s−1, which is 38 times lower than typical medical imaging doses. Triplet‐enhanced lanthanide RL provides new ideas for replacing scintillators that require high temperature synthesis processes such as inorganic phosphors and ceramics, and provides a new alternative scintillator material for flexible X‐ray monitoring, bioimaging, radiotherapy, and other applications.
