The subject of the diploma thesis is the change in the spatial distribution of erosion and sediment deposition landforms within the channel of four different-size rivers, and is based on the morphology of the river channel and presence of barriers. The objective of this thesis was to 1) map the spatial distribution of channel bars and locations of bank scour, 2) define the morphologic characteristics including the position with respect to the location of bends and obstructions in the channel of the individual river reaches, and 3) define common patterns, and explain potential differences between the patterns in the rivers of different size. For the purpose of this study a field reconnaissance was carried out on selected reaches of Sazava River, Litavka River, Kocaba River and Lodenice River. The selected sections represent relatively natural parts of river channels with similar geomorphic conditions. The field survey was carried out in two campaigns - in spring and in summer 2015. The results of the survey indicate that channel bends do not play a primary role in the position and morphology of channel bars and locations of bank scour. However, significant sediment deposition or erosion activity was identified near run-of-river dams. In the surveyed reaches of the Sazava and Litavka rivers, channel...

The occurrence of avalanche paths is usually frequent in alpine environment, but it is also present in mid-mountains such as the High Sudetes. The submitted master thesis is focused on avalanche paths in the Eastern High Sudetes. The morphometric analysis of 8 paths was accomplished to determine their characteristics and comparison with statistical verification. The dendrogeomorphological analysis and further geomorphological mapping was performed in 2 selected paths (Sněžná kotlina and Králický Sněžník) to cover their avalanche activity frequency and to find relationship between their activity and morphology. The results of this study show that there is a strong difference between two groups of avalanche paths in the Eastern High Sudetes. The Sněžná kotlina and The Králický Sněžník avalanche paths are longer and narrower than the other paths. They also have higher elevation difference. The comparison of these two paths performed by dendrogeomorphology indicates higher avalanche activity frequency in the Sněžná kotlina path, which was strengthened after strong avalanche event in 2004. It is assumed that the Sněžná kotlina path contains advanced avalanche landform, which is a long gully, probably also affected by debris- flows in the past. On the other hand the Králický Sněžník path is rather less...

The topic of the thesis is The Geomorphology Teaching at Primary Schools. To be specific, the thesis occupies with the creation of the alternative teaching material for teaching Geomorphology at primary schools with its utilisation in Geography lessons, Geography seminars, hobby groups and as some inspiration and source of information for teachers as well. The thesis results from the Framework Education Programme for Primary Education, respectively from the educational field ,,Human and Nature``, from topical areas ,,Natural picture of the Earth", ,,Environment`` and ,,The Cross-Country Geographical Education, Praxis and Application``. The teaching material is divided into a text part, worksheets and worksheets key. Another part of the thesis is also the analysis and evaluation of Geography textbooks designed for Primary Schools according to defined conditions. The evaluated condition is the quality of elaboration of Geomorphology contents and the structure of the textbooks.

Impact events and associated processes can significantly reshape the natural environment of the Earth and other bodies in the Solar system. The Siljan impact crater in the middle of Sweden was created in late Devonian and it is the biggest known morphostructure of this kind in Europe. The presented paper aims at the relief evolution of the Siljan impact crater area. Landforms of the region are studied, including relicts of the impact event, and main stages of relief evolution from the Paleozoic to the present are determined. Special attention is focused to discussion about the range and types of erosional and denudational processes in relation to the level of preservation of morphological and geological indices about the Devonian impact. Ascertained knowledge about relicts of the Siljan impact event are compared with selected impact craters on the Earth, the Moon and Mars.

The master thesis is focused on analysis of the zone of recent deglaciation in the Cordillera Blanca, Peru. Geomorphological mapping that had been realized based on interpretation of the satellite data and field reconnaissance was used for interpretation of main geomorphological features and processes of the selected glacial valleys. Glaciofluvial processes and mass movements are the main processes that affected the relief in the recent period. Major differences in landforms presence and distribution have been found between the studied valleys. The main differences are between valleys located on the western side and eastern side of the mountains. Number of different sediments of different types have been identified on the western side, whereas no evidence of such sediments was found on the eastern side. These differences are probably caused by differences in geology and climatic conditions. Finally, a general sediment flux model on the information gained from the geomorfologic analysis has been created and shows space distribution of geomorphological features and processes. The analyses of the satellite data show different visual characteristics of the rocks, which has been confirmed during field works using Schmidt Hammer method. The results suggest that the rocks that have been exposed for longer time due...
