Dynamika revitalizovaného koryta Sviňovického potoka / Channel dynamics of the restored Sviňovický Brook

The aim of this thesis was to monitor and to evaluate development and morphological dynamics of the Sviňovický Brook channel after the restoration in 2005. Field surveying and aerial images by low-flying model planes were used to detect recent channel dynamics after the restoration in 2005. Channel changes were compared to water level measurements. The additional method was grain size analysis of bed sediments. Orthoimage and cadastral maps were utilized to document changes in channel position over the past 160 years. Field surveying detected intensive bed and bank erosion in restored channel caused by high stream velocity from the fortified upper flow. The restored channel has markedly widened and deepened. The largest changes occurred during floods in July 2006. The intensive eroding- depositing processes remodeled the channel. The changes in channel bed level were up 30 cm and bank erosion locally exceeded 1 meter. The longitudinal profile of the channel was leveled. The road bridge began to be obstacle to the longitudinal profile development. It causes deposition upstream and erosion downstream. The largest bank disruptions in the sector up the road bridge were fortified by quarried stones at the end of 2007. The channel has not shown any significant changes since 2007. With the growing density...
