Risk of the residents, infrastructure and water bodies by flash floods and sediment transport - assessment for scale of the Czech Republic

Popis výsledku v původním jazyce

Pluvial and flash floods, related to massive sediment transport become phenomenon nowadays, under conditions of climate changes. Storm events, related to material damages appear at unexpected places and their effective control is only possible in form of prevention. Large scale project for whole territory of the Czech Republic (ca 80.000 km2) with the aim to define critical points, where interaction between surface runoff connected to massive sediment transport and infrastructure or vulnerable water bodies can occur and to classify them according to potential risk. Advanced GIS routines, based on analyses of land use, soil conditions and morphology had been used to determine the critical points – points, where significant surface runoff occurs and interacts with infrastructure and vulnerable water bodies, based exclusively on the contributing area – flow accumulation. In total, ca 150.000 critical points were determined within the Czech Republic. For each of critical points, its subcatchment had then been analyzed in detail, concerning of soil loss and sediment transport, using simulation model WATEM/SEDEM. The results were used for classification of potential risk of individual critical points, based on mean soil loss within subcatchment, total sediment transport trough the outlet point and subcatchment area. The classification has been done into 5 classes. Concentrated flow trajectory had then been analyzed. Total hazard of infrastructure has been classified again into 5 categories for each individual critical point using risk matrix, combining threat and vulnerability features. Generalized control measures (changes in land-use, changes in agotechnology, diverting linear measures or retention structures) were then introduced into mathematical model WATEM/SEDEM in number of scenarios, to allow effective design of control measures against surface runoff and sediment transport for each individual critical point.
