Debris flows as a result of environmental changes in midmountains of the Cenral Europe, case study in the Hrubý Jeseník Mts.
Raschová, Tereza ; Křížek, Marek (advisor) ; Hartvich, Filip (referee)
This work determines on the basis of literature according to its objectives the definition of the debris flows, an overview of their types and description of the genesis and morphology. Debris flows are mass movements with high rate of speed, caused by atmospheric conditions (intense precipitation, melting snow) or geomorphological events (sudden burst of water pockets, burst of moraine or ice dammed lakes) in mountainous areas that move down the valley along torrential chanels or along slopes and pull down everything in their path. We distinguish between structural and turbulent debris flows. In case of structural ones the water is creating an envelope of the debris. Their genesis is conditioned by supersaturation of weathered soil with water and the movement is created by gravity. The turbulent debris flow are formed by water which is not able to be absorbed and the water pulls down the debris on slopes and in the channels. Material is transported in suspension. I compared some debris flows from different mountains and it is quite complex to define specific values of parameters that cause debris flows. Structural debris flow in this study originated on rocks with a high content of micas or on sandstones. Turbulent debris flows originated on granitoids. Precipitation should have higher intensity...

Debris flow analysis in the Oltrepo Pavese region in the Apennines
Fišer, Petr ; Vilímek, Vít (advisor) ; Veselý, Martin (referee)
This study deals with the topic of debris flows, their systematic classification and analysis of factors, which have an influence on the occurence of these catastrophic slope movements. A field research of the debris flow was made in the study area in the Oltrepò Pavese region in the Apennines in the northern Italy and then geomorphological map was made. Due to the digital terrain model (DTM) an estimation of entrained mass was made. Also, in the course of the thesis an analysis of rainfall pattern and aerial photographs was made in order to most accurately date each phase of development of the debris flow. Key words Debris flow, Factors of debris flows, Geomorphological map, Topografical profiles.
