This research project focused on the influence of air temperature on water temperature, pH value of water and nitrate and nitrite content in the Tršljavec stream. Our aim was to determine whether there are relationships between air temperature and different water parameters. Through field and laboratory work, we made repeated measurements of air temperature, water temperature, water pH value and nitrate and nitrite content. Based on the analysis of the data obtained, it was confirmed that air temperature has an influence on water temperature, while air temperature has no significant influence on the pH value of the water. We also found that the nitrate and nitrite content of the water is independent of the water temperature.
