The aim of the methodology is to present methods for quantifying the impacts of projected climate change on the water balance when applying adaptation measures in the Czech Republic for the next few decades. Adaptation measures should contribute to the sustainability of the water balance in all major user segments of water use and management in the basin. The main principle is the use of hydrological models to transform climate change scenarios into time series of hydrological conditions and to quantify the overall water balance of the basin using different types of adaptation measures and their implementation over time. Special emphasis is placed on the evaluation of combinations of adaptation measures that cannot be analysed by simplified methods. The methodology is designed to search for the optimal combination of adaptation measures in the assessed catchment. The proposed approach eliminates the shortcomings of effectiveness assessment from the perspective of the exclusive user of the water resource, as the evaluation of the effectiveness of adaptation measures is carried out in the form of a multi-criteria analysis of the evaluation of the outputs of the simulation model for predicting the water balance in the whole basin. This methodology can be used to assess different adaptation measures in all basic segments of water users: agriculture, forestry, energy, water management and others.

Ongoing climate change is causing a global increase in air temperature. While this is leading to an acceleration of the global hydrological cycle, and therefore a global increase in precipitation, the spatiotemporal variability in precipitation is much more complicated. While temperature in the Czech Republic shows a consistently increasing trend similar to that of surrounding countries and the planet as a whole, precipitation can be simplified that long-term averages of annual totals remain and are likely to remain very similar in the coming decades. Rising air temperatures inherently bring increased evaporative demand of the atmosphere and, for the same precipitation, a lower ratio of precipitation to evaporation, i.e. the climatic water balance shows a negative trend.

Ghisi T. Brno, 2018. Restoring of landscapes damaged by mining in the location Růženin quarry. Bachelor thesis. Mendel university. This bachelor thesis is about the restoration of the landscape of the former Růženin quarry after the active mining of limestone in the first half of the twentieth century. The main focus of this thesis is summing up history of southern slope and detailed description of the quarry reclamation, which was carried out with attention to preserve valuable natural features of the area. The natural conditions of the area are described in detail thanks to terrain survey, and the evolution of the country is described on the basis of pictures from a different time. These data analyze the environmental problems of the landscape and propose steps, which may be useful as an additional method of protecting natural values of Růženin quarry, or as other possible ways in land management.
