Site Description
Krcedinska ada is a Danube river island and a part of a larger floodplain complex, Nature Reserve and Ramsar site Koviljsko-petrovaradinski rit. It has a semi-circular shape and a surface area of 870ha, making it one of the largest river islands in Serbian Danube region. The area is characterized by moderate continental climate. The area is of special importance as a migratory habitat for waterfowl and as a feeding resource during reproductive period. Given that micro-relief is in constant change, plant associations are in apparent dynamics. Vegetation is composed of different vegetation types dominated by pastures with open grown veteran willow trees, scattered thorny shrubs and forest fragments. Open habitats of Krcedinska ada ...

Geology
Largest part of its morphological units is formed in the younger Holocene. According to Bogdanovi? and Bugarski (1984) in the wide flat valley, formed during Atlantic (5100 -2800 years BC) and Sub-boreal climate (2800-600 years BC), during Subatlantic climate period (600 years B.C. ? 1450 years B.C) fluvial material of sand and silt was accumulated in the inundation plain of the Danube. Along wide and flattened inundation plain, filled with soft sediments, Danube has formed multiple meanders due to slow flow. Geologically, the whole alluvial plain is deposited with recent sand and silt deposited in river runoff and floods.
Vegetation
Floodplain grassland vegetation; class ?olinio- Arrhenateretea, within this class degradation stages with order Agrostietalia stoloniferae and association Agropyro-Rumicion crispi. Ass. Agropyro-Poaetum angustifoliae, ?ss. Carex gracilis - Poa palustris,Ass. Class: Bidentetea tripartiti, Ass. Agrostideto- Polygonetum hydropiperi, Ass. Bidenteto-Potentilletum anserinae, Ass. Consolido- Eragrostion poidis, Ass. Cynodonto-Erodietum cicutariae. Class: Isoëto-Nanojuncetea with Marsilea quadrifolia as edificator, Ass. Dichostylidi-Gnaphalietum uliginosi, Ass. ?arsilio- Heleocharetum palustris and Heleocharetum acicularis. Class: Salicetea purpureae, Ass. Salicetum albae pannonicum.
Soils
Alluvial gravel - sandy soil, very humid and seasonally flooded alluvial soils (Fluvisols)
Hydrology
Depending on the Danube level, surface of the island varies. Absolute height of the water level in the Danube near Kr?edin (Bogdanovi? I dr. 1984) assigned according to mean values of characteristic water levels in Novi Sad for the period from 1946- 1970. has following values: mean low water level on 70,78, mean water level on 73,22 and mean high water level at 75,89m. According to this water level data comparing it with absolute height of the island, it can be said that flooding doesn?t happen at mean low and mean water levels, i.e. the surface area of the island doesn?t reduce. At mean high water levels, large part of the island especially its eastern half, is flooded. At extremely high water levels, whole surface of the island is flooded.
