Extreme hydrological events in the context of urban planning
Klimeš, Zdeněk ; Dráb, Aleš (referee) ; Duchan, David (advisor)
The purpose of the bachelor thesis was to describe known extreme hydrological events and potential attitudes to minimalize their negative impacts. The thesis was written as literature recherche from different points of view, not only from a one-sided technical or ecological point. It proceeds systematically from describing the historical evolution of the subject matter through the presentation of global ecological problems, outlining the legislative background and the findings from specialised literature, to the examples of current trends. In view of the fact that the issue is so broad, the thesis treats only certain parts in detail. The subject of interest is the demonstration of separate measures against floods and droughts and the effects of their synergy concerning the minimalization of the repercussions of extreme hydrological events.

Insurance Against Flood
Hubáčková, Lenka ; Bílková, Diana (advisor) ; Pardupa, Martin (referee)
Hlavním cílem diplomové práce je analýza problematiky pojištění majetku proti povodním a záplavám v českých podmínkách a zachycení změn pohledu na riziko povodně a záplavy po povodních v roce 1997 a 2002. V první kapitole jsem definovala základní pojmy týkající se povodní a vypracovala jsem analýzu režimu průtoků některých českých toků pomocí základních statistických ukazatelů. V druhé kapitole jsem se věnovala komerčnímu pojištění proti povodním a záplavám. Zmapovala jsem český pojistný trh a specifikovala jednotlivé produkty pojišťoven zaměřené na riziko povodně a záplavy. V závěru kapitoly jsem zachytila vývoj neživotního pojištění v České republice a na základě analýzy časových řad jsem provedla predikci na následující tři roky. Třetí kapitola informuje o povodních, které zasáhly Českou republiku v posledních letech a popisuje likvidaci pojistných událostí z těchto katastrof. V poslední kapitole jsem vymezila roli státu a zajišťoven při likvidaci škod z povodní a zabývala jsem se jejich úlohou při řešení problematiky týkající se povodní.
