Testing of products generated from Meteosat satellite (MSG) images in synoptic praxis
Pokorný, Michal ; Žák, Michal (advisor) ; Bližňák, Vojtěch (referee) ; Dejmal, Karel (referee)
First part of the thesis introduces possibilities of depicting of the data provided by the MSG (Meteosat Second Generation) satellite. Different color combinations (RGB - red, green, blue) description made by the basic channels combination follows. The main part of this thesis is focused on T-re profiles (T - temperature, re - effective cloud particle radius). The analysis of profiles of temperature versus the effective radius of cloud particles shows the vertical distribution of the effective particle size in clouds. The profiles are computed and constructed from the satellite retrieved data and they show graphically the distribution of cloud particles and indirectly represent the severity of the developing storms. Forecasting and predicting dangerous phenomena such as hailstorms or tornados that occur in severe storms is the main objective of the technique. This nowcasting tool was tested in Central Europe and the end of this thesis presents the results of the testing.

Tests and validation of WRF model for weather forecasting
Nováková, Tereza ; Halenka, Tomáš (advisor) ; Žák, Michal (referee)
Testing and validation of the numerical prediction model is an important part of its usage for weather prediction. The simulations have been performed with model WRF (Weather Research and Forecasting), of which basic principles are described. The simulation was set up in reanalysis mode, i.e. with perfect boundary conditions, for one month, July of 2000. The simulation in hydrostatic approximation with 10 km resolution is compared to the simulation with one nested domain in non-hydrostatic mode with 2 km resolution. The study is aimed at the convective and stratiform precipitation in daily total amount of precipitation and compared to the total amount from observed data. In addition, a two-day weather forecast was validated. The forecast has been run daily since January 2016 at the Department of Atmospheric Physics. Standard deviation of 24 and 48 hour forecast is compared with GFS global model analysis. Powered by TCPDF (www.tcpdf.org)
Blocking of westerly flow over Central Europe
Žáček, Ondřej ; Žák, Michal (advisor) ; Huszár, Peter (referee)
This bachelor thesis analyses atmospheric blocking and its influence on European weather, with focus on Czech Republic. Atmospheric blocking is a phenomenon when western flow is interrupted by high pressure centre. The research subjects are summarising information about blocking, its formation, detection, climatology, annual cycle and interannual variability. At stations Praha-Klementinum and Olomouc was made correlation analyses different strengths of blocking in sector 60 ř W - 60ř E (with step 15ř) and monthly mean daily average, minimum, maximum temperature. We find out, that blocking frequency has significant interannual variability and annual cycle for all strengths of blocking which we defined. Based on correlation analyses we found out for both stations significant negative correlation between average monthly temperature and frequency of blocking in winter, in spring and autumn negative correlation is less significant and in summer for some longitudes positive correlation was found. If we use for correlation analyses monthly mean of minimum or maximum temperature, differences are insignificant. Differences of correlations between Praha-Klementinum and Olomouc are slight, at Praha-Klementinum station is correlations slightly lower.
Characteristics of atmospheric convective environment
Keprtová, Pavlína ; Řezáčová, Daniela (advisor) ; Žák, Michal (referee)
The quality of convective precipitation and storm prediction is dependent on the level of knowledge of the convective environment. Convective environment characteristics describe various conditions in the atmosphere which are suitable for the convective storm formation and evolution. The characteristics CAPE, wind shear S01, S03 and S06 were selected for the discussion of their properties and predictive ability. This master thesis deals with the CAPE and S0X values analysis in the Czech Republic during the period May-August 2005-2011. Furthermore it analyzes the distribution of the combined characteristics CAPE × S0X and index NDSEV, especially in the critical interval of values which indicate a storm occurrence. It also deals with the estimation of relationship between NDSEV index and the heavy precipitation occurrence in the Czech Republic. The verification criterion CSI was applied to the evaluation of various threshold values for the NDSEV index.
Visibility at the Praha Ruzyne airport
Kusáková, Kateřina ; Žák, Michal (advisor) ; Pišoft, Petr (referee)
The goal of this bachelor thesis is to show the importance of visibility in flight operations. There are settled minima of visibility for each process, which must be achieved. Visibility has its own daily range, which is closely connected with solar radiation. Its also connected with a vertical structure of atmosphere, direction and speed of wind and current weather conditions. Visibility achieves its lowest values during intensive precipitations and in a fog. Mainly because of an appearance and lasting of a fog, there are compilations at the airport and very often a special procedures must be taken for an organization of flight operations. An appearance and lasting of a fog has a big influence on flight operations and that is why I pay an attention to this in my work. I concentrated myself not only on the daily range of visibility and its dependency on the direction of a wind, but on conditions of appearance and ending the fog as well.

Izák, Pavel ; Žitková, Andrea ; Žák, Michal ; Vejražka, Jiří ; Kárászová, Magda ; Petrusová, Zuzana
In the contribution, a liquid membrane in the form of supported ionic liquid and water membrane is used for the separation. Part of the contribution is devoted to condensing water membrane and its potential for efficient biogas cleaning.
Climatology of mediterranean cyclones
Suchan, Petr ; Žák, Michal (advisor) ; Metelka, Ladislav (referee)
This work deals with climatology of mediterranean cyclones. In first chapter short description of the Mediterranean area is given, second chapter depicts climate properties of Mediterranean focussed on air temperature, sea surface temperature and precipitations. Third chapter characterises Mediterranean cyclones, briefly brings some facts about their dividing and possibilities of their cyclogenesis in the Mediterranean area. In the last chapter the influence of cyclones at least partly originating in Mediterranean on the weather in the Czech Republic is studied.
Climate characteristics of higher atmospheric levels
Kuchař, Aleš ; Pišoft, Petr (advisor) ; Žák, Michal (referee)
This work investigates the climatic characteristics of the upper atmosphere. The characteristics that were analyzed include air temperature, speed and direction of the zonal wind, geopotential height and total column of ozone or its mixing ratio in the individual levels of pressure. Data from projects NCEP/NCAR and ERA-40 reanalysis were used for these purposes. The data are present in a graphic form, particularly in the average monthly maps during 1978−2007 for the first one and during 1978−2002 for the second one with azimuthal projection for each hemisphere for the levels of 300, 100, 10 and 30 hPa. The results obtained are described and interpreted by a research of available literature.
Contemporary possibilities of atmosphere lightning detection
Nettl, Tomáš ; Žák, Michal (advisor) ; Pišoft, Petr (referee)
The aim of this thesis is to make a survey about posibilities of detection atmosferic discharges, describe their principles and properties. The other aim of thesis is comparing the systems CELDN and LINET. These two systems cover the area of Czech Republic. The first part of this work concerns of basic characteristic of flashes and electric properties of the atmosphere. The basic model of air discharges distribution in a storm and an electric field around is mentioned. Then the thesis describes the basic flash detection systems and the methods of detection.The end of the work describes systems covering Czech Republic - CELDN and LINET. Also basic characteristics of these systems derived from real data are discussed.
