Sažetak
Sava, Drava and Danube are three large Croatian rivers. Beside being major water recipients of large Croatian areas, water management's relevance of these rivers is great. In the past they were the subject of many regulation actions and river modifications. In the 70's and 80's significant decrease of the water surface elevation was measured. All rivers are navigable on these sequences, and channel geometry changes have a large impact on navigability purpose. On the river Sava additional issue is water level degradation, which causes problems in the use of rivers. It is possible to make strong relation between river bed degradation and water-level degradation. Additional river bed degradation is caused by gravel exploitation and dredging for increasing waterway depth.
