IMPACT OF DRAINAGE CHANNELS ON RUNOFF REGIME IN FOREST CATCHMENT
Kalkus, Jan ; Kliment, Zdeněk (advisor) ; Jeníček, Michal (referee)
The main task of this diploma thesis is to evaluate function of system of open drainage channels and its impact on runoff from Tetřívčí brook forest catchment in Šumava mountains region, upper basin of the Blanice River. Catchment area is only 1,62 km2 and total length of all channels is over 12 km, so it's very important feature of this catchment. The first task was to explore to explore all the channels and set them to the map. Most of used data were measured manually, only precipitation and water level in main stream were measured by automatic gauges. It's not possible to compare results with state without channels, what is the main obstacle for data analysis. Measured channels normally contribute to total catchment runoff by 6 % to 39 %. About 20 % of channel length participate in runoff process in dry periods, in wet periods it can be even 90 % of channel length, what indicates functionality of drainage system. Actual soil saturation in the catchment is very important factor, it's expressed either by index API 5 (based on precipitation) or by groundwater level in 5 measured in separate drills. It's proved by channels responses in well-saturated periods. Runoff in measured channels raises up significantly after even very small precipitations of 1,7 mm. All results are suggesting, that total...

Assessment of physical river habitat diversity of streams. Application in experimental catchments of upper Blanice River.
Stříbrný, Martin ; Matoušková, Milada (advisor) ; Šípek, Václav (referee)
The subject of bachelor thesis was to evaluate the diversity of physical habitat, using three methods of hydromorphological survey. Methodologies with different approaches of evaluation have been applied to model basin Sviňovický stream. Detailed assessment describes the downstream changes in individual characteristics. River basin represents a contrast between the upper stream, which is completely anthropogenically influenced and lower stream which is after restoration. The thesis presents the result of a field survey of different methodologies and evaluates the diversity of habitat in different flow conditions. The results of all three approaches are confirmation of positive impact of restoration to the habitat quality and especially the requirement to modify each methodology to local conditions. Longitudinal development of selected hydromorphological parameters have been observed.

Ecological condition of streams in urban areas. Case study of the Rokyka basin.
Stádníková, Monika ; Matoušková, Milada (advisor) ; Králová, Magdalena (referee)
The thesis deals with the status assessment of the stream in urban areas. The study area is the stream Rokytka in Prague. The method Hydroecological monitoring HEM (Langhammer, 2007, 2013) was used for the thesis based on field hydromorphological survey. This method is compatible with the Water Framework Directive 2000/60/EC. The thesis also includes assessement of the rainoff regime and water quality based on the available hydrological and hydrochemical data. As a final result, it was found out the stream Rokytka achieves III. hydromophological state - average state. The water quality state does not meet the requirements of the environmental standards quality. In the urban landscape, it is necessary to find a suitable compromise between flood protection and good environmental conditions. Powered by TCPDF (www.tcpdf.org)

Possible assessment of runoff variability at experimental catchments in Šumava Mountains
Kalkus, Jan ; Kliment, Zdeněk (advisor) ; Královec, Václav (referee)
Main aim of the thesis is to make an outline of possible indicators of runoff variability and options how to use these indicators to compare catchments of different attributes, based on literature review. Further is mentioned general information about experimental catchments and sorts of researchers which were made there. Applicative part aims at application of selected methods for central Šumava catchment (Ptačí creek, Rokytka river) and upper reaches of Blanice river (paired catchments of Tetřívčí and Zbytinský creek). Results of this part confirm some of previous research results made in the same locations. Keywords: runoff variability, runoff regime, experimental catchment, Šumava Mountains

Hydrological drought in the context of climatic change in the world and in the Czech part of Elbe River basin
Šachová, Barbora ; Kocum, Jan (advisor) ; Janský, Bohumír (referee)
Hydrological drought in the context of climatic changes in the world and in the Czech part of Elbe River basin Abstract The submitted thesis deals with the hydrological drought as one of extreme runoff situations in relation to climate change. Part of this work is a comprehensive research sources to Czech and foreign literature defining the concepts and the development of hydrological drought due to the physical- geographic and anthropogenic factors. Low flow characteristics and methods for defining the drought events are described. Attention is paid to the possibilities of prevention and compensation of negative impacts of drought. Within the second part the presence of low flow in Elbe River subbasins, Blšanka River, Rakovnický Brook and Vydra River, is analyzed. Water deficit is evaluated with regard to the physical-geographic characteristics and the specifics of water resources use. Outline of possibilities to increase the retention capacity of study catchments is given. Key words: hydrological drought, low flow, runoff regime, retention potential, Blšanka River, Rakovnický Brook, Vydra River
