Především ale může sloužit jako primární podklad pro případnou obnovu zaniklých rybníků nebo pro revitalizační či protipovodňová opatření v krajině v lokalitách historických rybníků. Prostorová analýza výše uvedených mapových podkladů ukazuje, že těchto historických rybníků v krajině zmizelo velké množství. Jak ukazují dílčí historickogeografické sondy, daleko větší počet jich byl zrušen ještě před zhotovením těchto map. Avšak přesná identifikace či prostorová rekonstrukce vodních ploch z těchto historicky starších mapových podkladů (např. I. vojenské mapování) je vzhledem k malé polohové přesnosti velmi složitá. Cílem knihy je prezentovat nejen historii výstavby a zániku rybníků, ale i hybné sily, které k těmto procesům v rámci území ČR přispívaly. Dílčí kapitoly také představují výsledky mapování ploc...

As it is said in historical works, it was a "water artery" of the town Caslav. There were built a huge number of small water reservoirs (mostly fishponds) on this stream for supplying Caslav by water. This role ended by 1931, when new water-conduit from location near Chotěboř was built. Many of fishponds were dried, but we can still find its relicts in the landscape. This article is a historical review of small water reservoirs on the Hluboký brook.

A number of available data sources were used for the creation of the database: the maps of the historical exploitation of the landscape (the military survey, the Stabile Cadastre), the digital database of water management data, the database of geographical data of the Czech Republic, etc. The methods of both automatic (in ArcGIS 9.3) and manual localisation of basins were tested for the territory in question. In addition, the paper describes in detail the method of creation of the digital layer in the GIS environment, pointing out the problems encountered in the creation of this layer of ponds from the II nd military survey (historical ponds). The paper also includes analyses of the areas of ponds from the II nd military survey (the al...

During this time ponds became a long-term and lucrative investment. However, just as the establishment of ponds at that time was relatively rapid, after roughly 200 years they were widely drained. In this article we present the mapping of defunct ponds making use of material from the 2nd military mapping. During spatial analysis in GIS environment it was determined that, in the course of the last 150 years, 3,479 bodies of water have disappeared, of which 3,416 were ponds larger than 0.5ha, and that almost 70 % of this land area is now utilised as agricultural land. The database created is one of the foundations for landscape and land use changes and for consideration of potential use of these localities within revitalisation and flood-prevention measures, or within agr...

In past, ponds created ingenious water accumulating system in this region. Its main function was supplying villages and Čáslav town with water, because since the late-middle ages, all region suffered from scarity of drink and service water. But first ponds were built there earlier, in eleven and twelve century. This study is based on identification and description of oldest ponds in the Čáslav region (in case of extinct ponds, also recognising its relicts in the field) and study its possible purposes of establishment, confrontating them with common well-known facts about fishpond cultivation in Czech country.

The care of water resources is supported by the fact that almost 54 % of drinking water comes from the surface water resources. The interest of the water management policy lies in an effort to retain most of the water surface in a basin as a potential supply and prevent the rapid drainage. Therefore a number of small water reservoirs and water dams having fulfilled or still fulfilling the water management function has been built in our country. Despite a relative sufficiency of water for human activities, there are regions in the Czech Republic, where the water supply has been historically very problematic and still is not sufficiently solved, particularly from the sustainable point of view. One of these regions is the Čáslavsko region, which is the subject of this contribution. This region within the heart of the Czech Republic has to solve for several times in history a crisis situation in the water ...

The database was created with the use of historical land use maps (2 nd military mapping, "Franziszeischer Kataster" land register), a digital database of water management data and a database of CZ geographic data. Spatial analysis of defunct ponds was carried out throughout the Czech Republic in terms of number, size, and analysis of the current use of these pond sites and main land units. The article points out the possibilities for further use of the database in making decisions on future use of the landscape and also estimates its limits. Key words: fish farming in the Czech Republic, old maps, 2 nd military mapping, database of defunct ponds, current land use

Kyjovka river basin is one of the typical agricultural regions in southern Moravia. Signifi cant changes in land use are associated with the process of agricultural intensifi cation and urbanization. Th e highest area of the water surfaces was recorded in 1763 (1,256 ha). In the second half of the 19th century showed signifi cantly major driving forces leading to the extinction of the vast majority of water areas in Kyjovka river basin. A signifi cant eff ect was lack of profi tability of fi sh farming, the development of the sugar industry in the region and increased demand for food, including industrial crops for industrial production. Restoration of water areas after the World War II is associated with the development of fi sheries. Currently, the Kyjovka basin recorded a total 72...

Using old topographic maps, land use development was assessed and the analysis of driving forces of land use changes was carried out. The essential land use changes in these areas are connected with the processes of agricultural intensification and urbanisation. The largest area of water bodies was recorded in both river basins in 1763. In the second half of the 19 th century, the disappearance of most water bodies in the two basins was significantly affected by the above-mentioned driving forces. After World War II, some of the water bodies in the Kyjovka River Basin were restored and new ponds were established. In contrast, no significant water bodies were restored in the Trkmanka River Basin.

A significant part of the catchment serves as a protection zone for the reservoir. The protection measures, such as restrictions on the maximum amount of manure and N and P fertilizers, were applied in the case study area according to recommendations of a land consolidation project. The Hubenov reservoir water resources were monitored for twenty years (1990-2010) in order to collect water quality data on nitrate nitrogen (N-NO3-), total phosphorus (P-tot), and total suspended solids. The results of monitoring indicate a linear trend of decrease in N-NO3-) and P-tot following the soil and water conservation measures applied.
