FEJÉR L. - BAROSS K..: A magyar Felső-Duna - történeti szemléletben 291 The Hungárián Upper Danube - A Historical Rewiew Fejér, L. - Baross, K. Abstract: The Pozsony-Komárom river section, referred to alsó as the Hungárián Upper Danube, had been an ubstable, irregularly meanderling, extensively braided river section, on which navigation was extremely difficult and often impossible. The people in the region adjusted their lifestyle to thesecinditions, River regulation, thus stabilization of the waterway and providing flood control by levees remained but partly sucessful. A complete solution was expected from the Bös-Nagymaros river dam project, but the abandonmcnt thereof hasn had grave consequences to the Szigetköz area. Thecountry must rely on Ihe professional skill of the hydraulic engineers for averting disaster. Keywords: Bös-Nagymaros River Dam Project, river regulation, flood control, hydraulic engineering history.
