The article analyzes the influence of operation on all structures downstream the stream on the water content and dryness in the stream. As area of interest was chosen the catchment of a small stream in the foothill region with a gauging station and several water structures built on this stream in the last century. Seven structures with the most significant impact were examined. Multiple reconnaissance of the terrain and structures were performed, in different time periods; the existing operational manuals of water...

The article analyses the current state of flood protection of the urban area in the foothill region. Problems of the area were characterized through selected critical points that support the local flood origination. Of course, the flood is a random phenomenon and its behaviour depends on many other factors, such as soil saturation, vegetation cover, river bed channel current state, as well as drainage cuts, soil management, etc. For efficient design of the flood protection measures, it is necessary to have input d...

Occurrence of flash floods (floods from intensive short-term rainfall) increased in last few years because of weather changes, mostly on the small catchments. Affected small catchments are characteristic with lack of information about hydrologic data, mostly no gauging and precipitation station are established there (it is impossible to warn inhabitants). Besides that, in Slovakia is common that house building is very close to the stream, therefore is impossible to change somehow river routing, or change the cross...

The goal of the contribution is to present a comprehensive and complex possibility of modelling the runoff processes for a given part of Bratislava city. The complex approach consisted of mutual integration of results of partial mathematical models пїЅ rainfall-runoff model, sewage system model, 1-D hydrodynamic modelling of open channel flow together with partially covered flows, 2-D hydrodynamic modelling of flooding the town residential area. All modelling works have been done in DTM coming from aerial photogra...
