PROBLEM OF CLIMATIC CHANGES IN THE CZECH REPUBLIC MINING AREA
Abstract
The Brown Coal Research Institute j. s. c. is realising the long term research and survey of the mining area of the Most Basin. One of new important tasks is problem of climatic changes. The Most Coal Basin area is known for its largest Czech brown coal deposit. It is situated in the region of North Western Bohemia - Czech mining region. The main mining companies are the North Bohemian Mines, j.s.c. and the Seven Group j.s.c. The main mining localities are the Bilina open pit mine, the Libous open pit mine, the Vrsany open pit mine and the CSA open pit mine. The Most Coal Basin is in general known as dry part of the Czech Republic. The article presents the development of the climatic situation in all the Czech Republic, the main attention is devoted to the mining region of the North Western Bohemia situation. It was applied data of the Brown Coal Research Institute (VUHU), data gained by mining companies, data gained by the Czech Hydro - Meteorological Institute (CHMU) and very important data from regional met - stations Kopisty, Kockov and Milesovka. The most significant factors for quantifying of the climatic changes were temperature and precipitations, the pressure and wind were evaluated too. The baseline of the most important graphs is 1961 (period 1961 ? 2019). The article summarises the main climatic incidents from 1990 too. High level of rainfall is danger from point of view of mining operations, low level of rainfall is danger from point of view of restoration and revitalisation of the landscape. The prediction of the Czech Republic climatic changes in future is described in the last part of this article. The research was realised with support of EU research programme ?The impact of EXtreme weather events on MINing operations?, project No 847250 ? TEXMIN - RFCS-2018.
