- Z0059 Hydrology
The course is intended for undergraduate students. Overall knowledge of hydrology and physical geography on the undergraduate (BSc) level is required to attend the course. - Course Enrolment Limitations
- The course is only offered to the students of the study fields the course is directly associated with.
The capacity limit for the course is 20 student(s).
Current registration and enrolment status: enrolled: 0/20, only registered: 0/20 - fields of study / plans the course is directly associated with
- Geography (programme PřF, B-GK, specialization Physical Geography)
- Course objectives
- At the end of the course student should be able to understand selected problems of applied hydrology. Student would be able to explain when to use individual methods in water managment and make reasoned decisions about preconditions of the impact of technical measurements on rivers and streams. Students will learn how to process the hydrological data, to propare the plans for river basins and to evaluate the impact of water management structures and measures.
- Learning outcomes
- After finishing the course student should be able to:
process the hydrological data in detail;
prepare the maps and data for the river basin planning;
evaluate the impact of water management structures and measures. - Syllabus
- 1) Introduction. Complex analysis of hydrological data, case study
- 2) Rainfall, rainfall-runoff process, floods
- 3) Statistical methods in hydrology
- 4) Fague thesis, principles for aplication of technical measurements and revitalization on small streams and rivers
- 5) Small water reservoirs, the reservoir distribution
- 6) Extreme discharges, their calculation, evaluation; transformation of the flood flow by water reservoir
- 7) The outflow simulation in selected river basin
- 8) Determination of ground water outflow
- 9) Field measurement, ADcP
- 10) Postprocessing of hydrometrical data
- 11) Water management institutes, river basin management institutions; case studies
- 12) Excursions (dam, institutions of river basin managment)
