Landslide Kubarnovo Brdo – Stari Put in Hrvatska Kostajnica

The landslide Kubarnovo brdo – Stari put in the town of Hrvatska Kostajnica was activated on March 13th 2018. Kubarnovo brdo Hill is composed of bedrock, deluvial deposits and the soil layer.The landslide area is relatively large, approximately 300 x 300 m, with clearly visible landslide contours (in 2018)and the main scarp is <30 m high and around 285 m long.The activation of the landslide was probably caused by a temperature change from below to above zero and the sudden snowmelt of an 80 cm thick snow cover. As the water level of the Una River was already high, the drainage of the additional water was slowed down or inhibited. This increased the pore pressure in the soil and eventually led to exceedance of the soil shear strength resulting in landslide occurrence.
