In this work, I dealt with the repercussion of drought on agriculture and land in the cadastral Jinošov. For this area, I analyzed the erosion and ratio of outflow. I also conducted a proposal of adaptation measures against erosion and water retention in the area. In conclusion, I analyzed withholding data and assessed the retention before and after the proposal of adaptation measures. The result of my work is finding that rainfall is inadequate and largely come out of the growing season, that despite all the measures fail to create on the necessary retention for the correct functioning of the landscape. Therefore it is necessary to solve water supply from other areas where is sufficient supply of water.

Title: Materials for fusion applications and their interaction with tokamak plasma Author: Veronika Klevarová Department: Department of Physics of Materials Supervisor: doc. RNDr. Miloš Janeček, CSc., Department of Physics of Materials Abstract: Tungsten represents a perspective option in the context of fusion devices first-wall materials. In the first part of this work, set of tungsten samples with variable grain size was prepared by spark plasma sintering. Specimens were exposed to steady state deuterium plasma beam and high energy heat pulses, simulating thus the normal operation in the tokamak. As a consequence of the exposure, samples surfaces were roughened, as-prepared grains were recovered and in some cases cracks were formed. Moreover, post-irradiation analysis of the damaged samples revealed activation of in-grain slip systems within the loaded surfaces. Threshold grain diameter for this mechanism was determined to be between 5.5 - 6.6 μm at the particular loading conditions. However, damaged features showed to depend more on the fabrication parameters than on the grain diameter. Synergistic effects of simultaneous loading were proven to be important since those reduced the heat propagation within the volume of the tested samples. In the second part of this thesis, introduction to plasma-surface...

The aim of the dissertation thesis is the assessment of the degradation of selected soil properties due to water erosion, including the temporal dynamics of these properties and the assessment of how this change affects the cumulative infiltration of the soil in watershed. Between 2012 and 2015, undisturbed and disturbed soil samples were collected on three experimental areas and the cumulative infiltration of the soil was measured. Experimental areas were selected on sloping, erosion-endangered blocks of arable land, in three cadastral territories of the Czech Republic, and this in the cadastral areas of Větřkovice, Čejkovice and Hustopeče. The cumulative infiltration was measured in three landscapes positions of the slope and soil samples were collected in three landscapes positions of the slope, at soil crust, topsoil and subsoil. In the Pedological Laboratory at the Institute of Landscape Water Management, Brno University of Technology, the particle density, bulk density, porosity, soil texture and water stable aggregates were determined from the samples taken. The cumulative infiltration of the soil was measured using the Double Ring Infiltrometer, the Mini Disc Infiltrometer and the mobile rainfall simulator. Using one-way analysis of variance to analyze the differences among soil samples and infiltration test. In addition, the dependence of soil crust formation, its physical properties and its influence on the cumulative infiltration of the soil were monitored on the areas.

Soil and terrain changes as a result of increased erosion and accumulation processes in selected locations Abstract Colluvial soils are formed in areas with increased intensity of soil erosion. Colluvial soils originate as a result of their position in terrain, they are usually found in places where has accumulated erosion material. Very often they are to be found at the around of slopes. Their accumulation horizon is deeper than 25 cm with a great amount of organic carbon buried in it. In my diploma thesis I will attempt to take a closer look at three locations, each having different types of dominant soils. The aim of this diploma thesis is to rebuild the original shape of the terrain before the beginning of the soil erosion process. Keywords: colluvial soil, soil erosion, soil accumulation, land use, digital terrain model (DTM)

Large depression cone in water table was formed due to mining in surroundings of Střeleč quarry. The concentrated inflow from conduits to quarry is up to 70 l/s. Large conduit systems are created by flowing water into the quarry. The biggest conduit system was at least 300 m long and 17 m high with maximum calculated volume of 22 thousands m3 . Evolution of these conduits usually takes several months to few years. Fast conduit evolution allows to study erosion processes in detail in situ. In the thesis I am describing conduits, character of flow and erosion processes. Measured flow velocities in conduits are up to 0,4 m/s with hydraulic gradient 1 to 5%. Flow velocities and hydraulic gradients are typical for piping erosion. Piping initially forms small protoconduits. The bigger conduits are formed as water is progressively drained from larger area. Conduits are following fracture surfaces, which are also limiting the conduit propagation to the sides. Above water table the conduits are enlarged mainly by mass wasting of undercut sandstone slabs. For distinguishing less and more erodible parts of sandstone, we adapted and partially developed a method for measuring erodability (REI) and drilling resistance (DR). Both are used to compare different types of sandstone surfaces. In lowermost part of the...

The diploma thesis focuses on the analysis of rainfall-runoff processes and erosion characteristics of selected catchment in different landscape management. This analysis was solved at the Lukavecký brook catchment, which is located in the Pelhřimov district in Vysočina region. The theoretical part of the thesis describes the rainfall-runoff process and then focuses more on individual processes. It also characterizes water erosion, its consequences, forms and erosion control. At the end of the theoretical part are described methods of calculation of water runoff and water erosion. The practical part describes the catchment of the Lukavecký brook, its characteristics of natural conditions and the threat of water erosion. Then there is a procedure for processing of bases and data in the program ArcGIS. Subsequently, it includes an assessment of the different measures and changes in the type of land to drain water from the catchment and erosion threat.

This diploma thesis deals with returning of modified troughs of small watercourses to the natural state - revitalisation. The general idea of the river beds and water environment revitalisation will be explained in the theoretical part. It will also deal with its history, development and practical application. The practical part will contain an own project creation. It is a project of the adjusted small watercourses bed revitalisation in the level of study. A section of a fine river was used for this thesis. It is called Žďárský Stream and it belongs to the cadastral area Žďár near the Kaplice. Individual parts of the river and its basin will be mapped in this work. It will also consider the hydrological and geographical conditions and it will propose a technical solving for a local revitalisation of the adjusted river bed. It will ínclude natural factors support, the ecological-morphological improvement, the migrational permeability and other links to the river environment.

The aim of this thesis is to evaluate the impact of agricultural activity on hydrochemical parameters of surface waters in connection with the occurence of specially protected species within the surface waters of a monitored area. A model was chosen for the evaluation of the situation - Bedřichovský potok, which is located in Novohradské hory. The river consists of lower and upper sub-waters. Forest management is applied within upper sub-basin, while agricultural management on arable land, meadows and pastures is used in the lower sub-basin. The monitored parameters were indicators of eutrophication of surface waters: Nitrate nitrogen (N-NO3-), Phosphate phosphorus (P-PO43-), and conductivity of undissolved material (NL105). The results showed that the agriculture management (especially on arable land) burdens the soil with nutrients and consequently erosion enters the substances, bringing them to the surface and ground water as a result. There was an increase of substances in the water after rain.

Erosion is an issue, which causes huge damages not only on agricultural land. This diploma thesis describes practical evaluation of erosion control measures (usage of leaving crop residue, circuit strips, contour tillage), which are include in Good Agriculture and Environmental Condition standart, which was issued by European union. Efficiency of usage of narrow-row and wide-row crops is also modeled. Each measures were evaluated in two different modeling programmes HydroCad for calibration and ERCN for results comparison. Seven different scripts are used in the thesis. Subcatchment area P6 in catchment area of Kopaninský creek is used as model area. Literature review describes the precipitation and runoff process, issue of erosion, and agriculture land protection against water erosion. Is also describes GAEC standards (today DZES).

The thesis focuses on catch crops and crop rotation used in conventional agriculture and the possibility of their utilization in anti-erosion protection. The thesis includes a research which describes land consolidation and the main territorial systems which allow anti-erosion protection. Different kinds of erosion and the crop rotation are described in this thesis. The chapter about catch crops is focused on the inclusion of catch crops into the crop rotation. The goal of this study is to assess the real suggested actions used during the land consolidation and to compare their effectiveness with the effectiveness of crop rotation including catch crops.
