Šachová, Barbora ; Kocum, Jan (advisor) ; Fiala, Theodor (referee)
CLIMATIC CHANGE EFFECT ON HYDROLOGICAL DROUGHT IN THE OTAVA RIVER HEADWATERS Abstract The submitted thesis deals with hydrological drought in condition of climate change in Otava River headwaters. The topic is discussed from four different aspects that together create a complex view on the hydrological drought issues in the catchment. The first aspect, the hydrological drought analysis in daily series, is done by threshold level method and SPA. Second aspect studies the impact of climate change on the hydrological drought by using the BILAN model. Following aspect determines a prediction of low flows and deficit volumes during drought by the recession analysis. Final aspect suggests relating process of management, planning and adaptation measures on drought. Key words: hydrological drought, minimal discharges, deficit volumes, BILAN model, climatic change, recession analysis, Otava River, Modrava, Rejštejn, Sušice, adaptation measures
Comparative analysis of runoff in experimental basins of upper Otava River
Fialová, Petra ; Janský, Bohumír (advisor) ; Jelínek, Jan (referee)
This bachelor thesis summarizes knowledge and provides new analyses about the runoff regime of three experimental streams in headstream area Otava River. The main focus is concentrated on comparison between the experimental basins in physical-geographic conditions, climate environment and peak flow. This thesis is based on data acquired during more than four years field survey which was realized in this area by the Faculty of Science, Department of Physical Geography and Geoecology.
HYGIENIC QUALITY OF FISH FROM SIGNIFICANT FISHING WATERS BEROUNKA 1, LUŽNICE 6, OTAVA 4, OTAVA 7 (P)
BARTOŇ, Jiří
The main aim of this study was to evaluate hygienic quality of fish from significant fishing waters: Berounka 1, Lužnice 6, Otava 4, Otava 7 (P). Sampling was performed in 2010 by electrofishing and fishing rods. 173 individuals belonging to 13 different fish species were fished. The samples of fish muscle were analysed for the following substances: Hg, Pb, Cd, PCB, DDT and its metabolites (DDE and DDD), a-HCH, b-HCH, y-HCH, HCB. Samples of bream (Abramis brama) muscle were collected at all monitored sites (exception was Otava 7) and bream was used as reference species to compare the contamination among monitored rivers. The results were compared with valid hygienic limits. The values of contamination were in most cases very low and far below the limits. Only mercury was identified as a risk contaminant in all monitored rivers. Average concentrations of mercury in the muscle of bream were in the range of 0.261-0.284 mg/kg and were comparable in all rivers. The hygienic limit for mercury (0,5 mg/kg) was exceeded only in 4 cases - one individual sample of bream from Otava, two mixed samples of asp (Aspius aspius) from Berounka and Lužnice, one mixed sample of perch (Perca fluviatilis) drom Otava. The highest value of total mercury content (0.768 mg/kg) was found in asp from Lužnice 6. All concentrations of persistent organochlorinated pollutants in fish muscle were far below the valid hygienic limits. The only health risk was posed by increased content of mercury.
