Human Impacts on the Dobra River (Croatia)

The name of Dobra River is based on the feminine form of the Croatian adjective dobro, meaning good. However, it is more likely that the river name is a derivative of the Celtic word dubrum or dubron meaning water, the Illyrian work δυβρις (dybris) meaning deep or the Old Slavic dъbrь (dubri, debra) meaning deep or valley. This river is a karst lotic system that sinks and also forms springs that runs through western part of Croatia. Its source is on the north- eastern slopes of Mlada Gora near the towns of Skrad, Kupjak and Ravna Gora, and it drains into the Kupa River, a tributary of the Sava River, just upstream of the city of Karlovac.
