Research on water erosion has been organized by the Department of Physical Geography of Ostrava University, from 1976 to 2000, in the Moravskoslezské Beskydy Mts. in the Upper Ostravice River Watershed in the NE part of the Czech Republic. The main results of an analysis of the suspended load regime are presented here. Suspended load, as a transitional part of the erosional products, is evidence of the intensity of erosional processes. In the observed catchment area of the Upper Ostravice R., suspended load sediments in the Šance Dam reached their maximum in 1997, when as a result of regional precipitation the concentration exceeded 15 g.l-1. Shrnutí Vodní eroze v povodí horní Ostravice v letech 1976 – 2000 Eroze je přirozený morfogenetický činitel, jehož intenzita a průběh závisí jak na přírodních činitelích, tak i na činitelích antropogenních (používání traktorové technologie, spojené s budování lesních komunikací). Ve středohorském reliéfu Moravskoslezských Beskyd v povodí horní Ostravice nad vodárenskou nádrží Šance byl katedrou fyzické geografie sledován plaveninový režim uvedeného povodí od roku 1976 do roku 2000. Tranzitní část produktů eroze – plaveniny jsou vodou přenášeny do vodárenské nádrže, kde z 90 % sedimentují. Od roku 1976 se vodní eroze projevila nejvíce v r. 1997, kdy okamžité koncentrace plavenin přesahovaly 15 g.l-1, což bylo dáno intenzivními regionálními srážkami.

We believe you will enjoy the race in the breathtaking countryside rich in natural as well as historical sights. Start CZAR20: TA1, Thursday 27th October 2020 v 9 am. Czech Paradise Sandstone rocks, dead volcanoes, wets, deep forests are typical natural heritage, while ruins, castles and old folk homes remind of cultural history. Jizera river is the arteria and Jizera Mountains and Krkonose/Giant Mountains are the surroundings. Traditional crafts include the jewelry, jewel cutting, glass making and wood carving. Prachov Rocks – the visit of Rock Town is highly recommended The formations are made of sandstone, originally in the form of a plateau. Since its formation over 60 million years ago, the rock has been eroded by wind and rain into the unique forms found at the site Stage: Orienteering (15 km, elevation gain 650m, free order) Sandstone climbing in the Bohemian Paradise originated about 100 years ago. First, after the WWI German climbers climbed in the Bohemian Paradise. In the 1930s, however, pioneers from Czechoslovakia took over the pioneering. Many climbers grew up in the rock towns and took part in expeditions to the mountains around the world. Today we can only admire the courage and determination with which they embarked on difficult first ascents. Mainly because they lacked basic climbing equipment. They had ordinary hemp ropes, old slippers were used as climbing shoes, and harnesses were sewn at home from old fire hoses.
