Integration of drainage measures in stream restoration projects. Application in the catchment area of the Klíšský Brook.
Vláčilová, Klára ; Matoušková, Milada (advisor) ; Šobr, Miroslav (referee)
This thesis deals with options of integration of drainage measures in stream restoration projects in rural landscape. The main aims are creation of research on the topic and creation of database of drainage systems in the area of interest, upper course of the Klíšský Brook. Partial aim is physical- geographical characreristics of the area of interest. The positive and negative effects of drainage are presented and discussed, and then adaptation measures to mitigate the harmful effects are described. The overview of drainage in the catchment is a synthesis of map data from the Register of Soil Blocks, data provided by the Ohře River Basin, drainage found in aerial photographs and field research. There are both main drainage facilities and drainage pipes in the area of interest. 10 surface canals and 7 drainages flow into the revitalized part of the Klíšský Brook. While the canals are still functional, the drainage is clogged with sediment, overgrown with vegetation and causes wetting. The results serve as a basis for the design of adaptation measures in the restoration of the Klíšský Brook. Key words: hydromelioration, drainage, rural landscape, adaptation measures, restoration, water retention

Adaptation of the urban environment on climate changeclimate change
Kührová, Kateřina ; Němcová, Miroslava Pumprlová (referee) ; Pumprlová Němcová, Miroslava (referee) ; Kriška-Dunajský, Michal (advisor)
Submitted bachelor thesis deals with adaptations of the urban environment to climate change, with special focus on adaptation strategies using greenery as the element of positive influence on the urban environment. The thesis is divided into two sections. In the first section the problematic of climate change and its effects and consequences for the urban environment is introduced, using both domestic and foreign sources. Scientific findings and adaptation options are listed with some examples of applied adaptation measures. The psychological effect on the city population is also considered as also a sociological research was conducted. The second part deals with analysis of the impact of two adaptation measures, both realized in the city of Brno – the existing green roof in Otevřená zahrada at Obilní trh and the City Cell Prototype – the temporary installation realised on Malinovského náměstí. The temperature and humidity data collected in the reference period (August – October/September – October 2018) are analysed together with the data recorded by meteorological station of the Institute of Landscape Water Management at the Brno University of Technology – Faculty of Civil Engineering.

Comparing Climate Change Adaptation Measures: The Cases of the Czech Republic, Germany and Poland
Skupa, Marek ; Ditrych, Ondřej (advisor) ; Kučerová, Irah (referee)
The diploma thesis "Comparing Climate Change Adaptation Measures: The Cases of the Czech Republic, Germany and Poland" compares national adaptation strategies on climate change of the Czech Republic, Germany and Poland. These strategies represents general politics of selected states on the field of climate change adaptation and the author compares them regarding the adaptation measures they contain. For this comparison, framework based on options and recommendations provided by Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC) and the EU is used. Author also analyses mitigation policies of selected states and examines similarities and differences in both approaches. In conclusion author relates his findings towards existing research and using both, he introduces limited theoretical findings about possible relationship between mitigation and adaptation policies of states.

Climatic change effect on hydrological drought in the Otava River headwaters
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

Sustainable production capabilities of territory, depending on climatic drought.
Skůpová, Jana ; Uhrová,, Jana (referee) ; Dumbrovský, Miroslav (advisor)
In this work, I dealt with the repercussion of drought on agriculture and land in the cadastral Jinošov. For this area, I analyzed the erosion and ratio of outflow. I also conducted a proposal of adaptation measures against erosion and water retention in the area. In conclusion, I analyzed withholding data and assessed the retention before and after the proposal of adaptation measures. The result of my work is finding that rainfall is inadequate and largely come out of the growing season, that despite all the measures fail to create on the necessary retention for the correct functioning of the landscape. Therefore it is necessary to solve water supply from other areas where is sufficient supply of water.

Impact of Institutional Setting on Current Creation of Environmental Strategies in Cities of the Czech Republic
Dubová, Lenka ; Vojáček, Ondřej (advisor) ; Matula, Miloš (referee)
Urban areas play important role in relation to potential risks and impacts of climate change. Adaptation experience is accumulating in the public and private sector across the world. This diploma thesis evaluates current creation of adaptation strategies in cities of the Czech Republic with the use of institutional analysis by the IAD framework. The aim of the thesis is to identify the most common constraints on the adaptation strategies making process and to suggest possible solutions. Data collection method is based on in-depth interviews with stakeholders in the cities of Pilsen, Prague and Brno. Identified constraints include lack of policy support, different level of experiences with creation of conceptual documents and problem with funds for adaptation action. As a solution deepen partnership between self-government and non-profit institutions and deepen cooperation between politics and civil servants with focus on information exchange is needed. In addition conceptual characterization of problems in cities together with their identification, which can helps to obtain funding for implementation of adaptation actions (e.g. through the LIFE programme) is recommended.

Landscaping in a selected Land Cadastre - Evaluation
Bulant, Ondřej ; Syrovátka, Oldřich (advisor) ; Wimmer, Jiří (referee)
The Bachelor's thesis deals with the evaluation of complex land consolidations implemented in a selected land register. The evaluation is based on the comparison of my own qualified proposal of erosion and drainage control elements. The theoretical part of the thesis focuses on the description of climate changes, both from the global perspective and with respect to the area of the Czech Republic. The thesis addresses causes, consequences, and appropriate adaptation measures to climate change impacts. The practical part describes the selected land register and the evaluation of implemented complex land consolidations. Subsequently, a proposal is presented of appropriate measures to climate changes, which entail problems with water scarcity.
