Morphology of the Moravice valley head, the Hrubý Jeseník Mountains
Steffanová, Petra ; Engel, Zbyněk (advisor) ; Křížek, Marek (referee)
There are several amphitheatrical valley heads in the Hrubý Jeseník mountains. Velká kotlina is situated bellow Vysoká hole mountain and has been an object of interest since 19th century. Several methods of geomorfological research were used to prove pleistocene glaciation in the area. The aim of diploma work is to extend knowledge about morphology and genesis of Velká kotlina. Study area was limited by distribution board till the first right affluent of Moravice. Morphometrics characteristic of the cirque were analyzed in GIS 9.3 enviroment. Identification of the shape and size of glacial accumulations during which was used method of longitudinal and transverse shaping showed the posibility of Quartenary glaciation. Cirque is built with less resistant rocks that caused that evidence of the glaciation is not so significant as it is in Šumava mountains or Krkonoše mountains. There are two moraines identified at the valley of river Moravice. The upper one that was created during the last recession of glacier devides cirque floor into two degrees. Frontal moraine is situated behind the lip of the cirque and shows the maximum of glacier expansion. Identification of these two morains were supported by analysis of glacier sediments and by georadar method. Even though existence of moraines suggests...
