Application of Environmental Geophysics Methods in Chosen Localities of the Krkonose National Park
Dvořák, Igor Jan ; Dohnal, Jiří (advisor) ; Císlerová, Milena (referee) ; Petrovský, Eduard (referee)
inrroduction -:,is thesis is a contribution to the rnultidisciplinary study of the arctic-alpine..'::a of the Giant Mountains (a part of the arctic-álpine tundra of the Éigh :.:etes). a unique environment in the context of the other central Europeán -.".i-.lntains. In the Giant Mountains this environment occupies an afea of aboút 4z :.n- (approxirnately 7 .4 oÁ of the total area of the Giant Mountains' with 32 km2 on :he czech side and 15 km2 on the polish side). within the fiamework of several :esearch projects there are a number of studies carried out by czech as well as ňreign experts (Stursa 2002). The results of these studies u,. u.ry important for a'bener understanding of the arctic-alpine tundra environment and its management. In this thesis, three types of abiotic properties were studied: (1) the masnetic properties of the upper layers of the soil; (2) soil moisture properties in relattn to \egetative cover (dwarf pine versus grassland stands); and (3) influence of wind- :rifted snow on the water balance of small mountain catchments. In the case of (1) :rd (2), environmental geophysics methods (magnetic properties and TDR*:asurements) were used. In case of (3), a new method of snow-deoth ::::rmination in the snowbed using a GpS system was developed. i .{rctic-alpine tundra environment The...
