Investigation of the sediment washing processes
Borovec, Jakub ; Jan, Jiří ; Hubáček, Tomáš
Sediment finding and the assessment of sediment amount and the characterization of sediment physico-chemical properties were performed. A methodology for the collection of large volumes of sediment samples and their subsequent washing was designed, tested, and optimized for use in the management of reservoir sediments and their further utilization. The extent of sediment contamination and its stability (phosphorus release, sediment behaviour in collection bags, the leaching of contaminants) were also determined and their influence on the reservoir functioning assessed.

Sediments of the Orlík resevoir
Borovec, Jakub ; Hejzlar, Josef ; Jan, Jiří ; Mošnerová, P.
Cílem příspěvku je shrnutí informací o vlastnostech a živinovém režimu sedimentů v podélném profilu nádrže v průběhu vegetační sezóny. Jsou ukázány rozdíly v jejich základním složení a ovlivňování vodního sloupce. Zejména je věnována pozornost rozdílu složení sedimentujících částic a sedimentu, teoretickému uvolňování živin ze sedimentů a jejich potenciálu zadržovat fosfor.

New methods for sediment description – how to their "metabolism"
Jan, Jiří ; Borovec, Jakub
Volume of reservoir sediments is usually small comparing to volume of water, but there are i) important place of nutrient recycling of water ecosystems and, ii) there are a dynamic part of the ecosystem. Large number of tightly coupled processes in the sediments is dependent on seasonal development and changes of physical, chemical and biological conditions (temperature, DO concentration, microbial activity, current conditions, amount and quality of settling material). Modern methods for nutrient balance in sediments, rates of release/uptake of nutrients and pore-water profiles were shown.

Sedimenty jako dynamická zásoba fosforu ve stratifikované nádrži
Borovec, Jakub ; Hejzlar, Josef ; Brzáková, Martina ; Jan, J.
The ecosystem of the small, dimictic, and hypertrophic reservoir (Jordan Reservoir, Czech Republic) was studied from March 2001 till March 2004 to evaluate rates at selected pathways in the P-cycle. The rates were inferred from measurement of P mass-balance, sedimentation of seston, and P-release from sediments. A shift between seasonal changes of inflow and outflow P concentrations caused by P accumulation in the hypolimnion and the sediments was demonstrated. An important amount of P was temporally retained at the sediment surface during the summer stratification but a part of it was released back to water during the autumnal mixing, due to pore water „flushing out” and fast organic matter decomposition.
