Exoscopy of sediments of glacigenous accumulation landforms
Křížová, Lenka ; Křížek, Marek (advisor) ; Lisá, Lenka (referee)
This thesis looks at the comparison between grain micromorphology of moraines, debris flows and similar accumulations. Moraine samples were taken in the Černé jezero Lake area, Bohemian Forest, in the Velická dolina Valley, High Tatras, and in the Labský důl Valley, Krkonoše Mts. Samples of debris flows and unverified accumulations were taken in the Důl Bílého Labe Valley, Krkonoše Mts., and further samples of accumulations were obtained from the valley of Prudký potok Stream, Králický Sněžník Mts., the valley of Vražedný potok Stream and Velká Kotlina, Hrubý Jeseník Mts. Sediments were examined under electron microscope and their morphological characteristics and influence of the environment were identified and described. Calculated exoscopic moraine standard was used for comparison of examined forms of relief using distance coefficients, statistical analysis were carried out which identified diagnostic characters for distinguishing moraines and debris flows. There was also calculated exoscopic standard for different types of moraines (frontal, lateral, basal). This research highlighted the differences between moraines and debris flows, and between different types of moraines. The study also proved that typical glacial microtextures, that are generally accepted, occur at similar levels on grains...

Variability of glaciofluvial sediments micromorphology
Krbcová, Klára
Micromorphology of glaciofluvial sediments were only partially shown by Mahaney et al. (2001). This paper deals with the main diagnostic textures of glaciofluvial sediments and changes of their micromorphology caused fluvial transport. The samples were collected. All samples were collected by Peter Mida and Martin Hanáček in Svalbard in August 2012. Two glacial samples and six glaciofluvial samples were taken near the glacier Bertilbreen and one glacial sample and seven glaciofluvial samples were taken near the glacier Hørbyebreen. Samples were examined under electron microscope. The correlation analyses was used to set the main glaciofluvial microtextures. Similarity of the samples was tested by one-way ANOVA. Increasing numbers of V-shaped pits, rounded grains, meandering ridges and microblocks are typical for characteristic microtextures of glaciofluvial grains which had greater rate of fluvial transport. But the grains mainly transported by glacier had a greater percentage occurence of subangular grains, straight steps, straight and curved grooves, adhering particles, pitting and V-shaped etch pits. Keywords: exoscopy, quartz grains micromorphology, glaciofluvial sediments

Exoscopy features of fluvial sediments
Dolejšová, Michaela ; Křížek, Marek (advisor) ; Lisá, Lenka (referee)
This thesis studies surface microfeatures of fluvial quartz grains. The genesis of specific surface microfeatures is influenced by specific physical-geographic conditions prevailing in the environment. Fluvial environment gives a various sets of microfeatures according to kinetic energy of the stream. For the purposes of exoscopy grains of upper reaches (Klínový potok), middle parts of streams (Volyňka, Labe) and downstream (Vltava, Knovízský potok) were used and compared with results of other researchers.
