Oplotniščica
The Oplotniščica (or Oplotnica) is a 28 km river in northeastern Slovenia. Rising on the southern flank of the Pohorje massif near the winter sports centre of Rogla, it flows southeast through the settlements of Osankarica, Oplotnica, and Tepanje before joining the Dravinja just northwest of Žiče. Despite draining a catchment of barely 52 km2, the watercourse once powered dozens of sawmills and grain mills, and it continues to host a string of small ( Mg2+ > K+, with HCO3− dominating the anion budget. Partial pressures of dissolved CO2 range from 1.1 to 13.4 times the atmospheric value, indicating that the river is a modest net source of CO2 to the atmosphere. Normalised bicarbonate production (about 10.4 mmol l−1 km−2 s−1) is typical of small silicate basins in temperate Europe, and considerably lower than figures reported from nearby carbonate catchments.
