Inventory of anthropogenic landforms for flood management in small catchments of the Czech Republic

Popis výsledku v původním jazyce

The long-term trend of increasing human activities has had a negative impact on landscape stability. Anthropogenic pressure directly or indirectly infl uences approximately 30% of Earth’s surface. Environmental problems, which are caused by inappropriate land use, have an adverse eff ect on society. Such landscape degradation is demonstrated by local predispositions to natural risks (e.g., fl ood events and slope instabilities). Th is paper presents a methodology utilizing both fi eld and secondary geospatial data sets to identify landscape change and fl ood risk. Th e interdisciplinary approach is applicable in selected areas in the Morava River basin of the Czech Republic. Th e model areas (Lacnovsky Brook, Leskava Brook, Kloboucka Brook, and Dunajovicky Brook catchments) are set apart by diff erent natural conditions and human activities. During fl ood prevention and protection planning, unsatisfactory attention is dedicated to small watercourses. Increased fl ooding of small streams within the region has impacted a signifi cant percentage of the population. Th is situation is an example of global environmental change on a regional scale in Central Europe. Th e research identifi ed the degradation of the landscape as related to fl ooding. It also established an anthropogenic landform inventory, and identifi ed the anthropogenic pressures to the morphological properties of the river beds and their impacts on fl ood behaviour. Th e aim of this study is presented by a quantitative and qualitative identifi cation and verifi cation of the relationship between landscape degradation and propensity for fl ood risks using geographical analysis and cartographic visualization. Th e identifi cation of the most degraded areas in relation to fl ood areas is a suitable tool to determine the fl ood risk susceptibility of small watercourses. Th ese analyses and assessments are key elements in the cycle of disaster risk management.
