Sažetak
Due to geomorphologic and climatic characteristics a large part of Croatian territory is exposed to flash floods. Over the last fifteen years they have occured pretty frequently. There have been damages in nearly all counties, from Istria to Slavonia, from Međimurje to Dalmatia. Flash floods have often caused considerable material damages, but luckily, no human losses. Because of large hilly and mountainous areas with high rain intensity, fertile foothills, and insufficiently constructed and maintained protection systems, Croatia is extremely vulnerable to flash floods. From the aspect of local point of view, floods may be not so frequent, but globally they occur each year somewhere in Croatia. The flooded areas might not be large in size, but they are featured by massive material damages. The Croatian capital of Zagreb is also hazarded by flash floods from the Medvednica mountain. To protect it from flash floods, a construction of 52 detention basins on Medvednica and its slopes is planned and so far 19 detentions have been built. The present condition of flash floods protection systems in Croatia and planning the development of them is presented in the article.
