Changes of rainfall-runoff regime in selected mountain areas of the Czech Republic with respect to their location and side exposure Preparation of precipitation datasets
Kalista, Tomáš ; Kliment, Zdeněk (advisor) ; Popová, Jana (referee)
The main topic of bachelor thesis is the evaluation of precipitation in selected mountains of Czechia. Precipitation regimes in mountain areas are very variable and depend on many factors, which are properly described in the research part of the work - synoptic situations, altitude, mountain orientation. These factors can lead to inequality in distribution of precipitation, which may result in windward and leeward effect or rain shadow. The main goal of the study is to analyze the frequency of synoptic situations that can clarify rainy and dry mountain areas. The work also contains analyzes of average annual totals for ten-year to twenty-year periods in selected mountain areas using cartograms and graphs of precipitation totals in connection with station altitudes. The secondary goal of the thesis is the preparation and completion of dataset files for following studies. Using the above methods, the strength of the windward and leeward effect in most of the studied mountains was clarified, which is related to the findings on the predominant influence of cyclonic synoptic situations coming from the west. Key words: precipitation, synoptic situations, windward and leeward effect, rain shadow, major mountains areas of Czechia
