- Description:
- The ongoing development of landslide prone regions increases future potential losses caused by landslide occurrence. The first step towards landslide mitigation on a regional scale is a susceptibility assessment. This study focuses on the area surrounding the regional capital of Zlín, in the Outer Western Carpathians. The city is located in the flysch highlands. Statistical analysis of the distribution of landslide scarps was undertaken in relation to various preparatory factors (geology, slope angle, slope aspect, slope curvature, distance from closest stream). This analysis provided insights into the main initiating factors and allowed our results to be compared with other studies in similar regions. Thereafter, a regional landslide susceptibility assessment was undertaken. The model performance was evaluated with respect to the landslide information used during its preparation and with a separate validation dataset. The results show that the main predisposing factors are the claystone rich bedrock unit, thick accumulations of slope sediments, and slope angles between 10° and 15°. The possible application of the presented results for urban planning purposes is also outlined., Jan Klimeš and Roman Novotný., and Obsahuje bibliografii

- Description:
- Southern Poland, especially Polish Carpathians, is a region affected by strong mass-movements. The importance of massmovements problems has been taken into consideration on the governmental level and Landslide Counteracting System (SOPO) program was launched in 2008. The main purpose of this program is to create inventory and map all active and inactive landslides and landslide prone areas in Poland. However, in case of such gigantic work, the traditional mapping methods meet sometimes their limitations. In order to overcome some of efficiency problems the new technology, the application of airborne laser scanning was tested. The main purpose of presented work is to test whether the LiDAR DTM is capable to support geological interpretation and landslide detection on steep and forested slopes for the purposes of landslide mapping within SOPO project. For this purpose the ALS dataset covering 40 km2 of the area near Roznow Lake in Polish Carpathians have been acquired in April 2010. The average scanning resolution was 7 points/m2 and LiteMapper 6800i system based on the full waveform, Riegl LMS-Q680i scanner have been used. Acquired point cloud was applied to generate DTM of 0.5 m resolution. For efficiency test purposes the detailed geological interpretation of constructed ALS DTM was focused on already well mapped large Zbyszyce landslide. The extents of the landslide and the zones of different level of activity have been mapped and then verified with field data. During the detailed analysis it was found that the level of the details of ALS DTM allows also performing morphometric analysis on landslides., Andrzej Borokowski, Zbigniew Perski, Tomasz Wojciechowski, Grzegorz Jóźków and Antoni Wójcik., and Obsahuje bibliografii

- Description:
- The intercalation of organic anions, namely acrylate, methacrylate, 2-acrylamido-2-me thyl-1-propanesulfonate (AMPS), 4-vinylbenzoate, and 4,4’-azobis(4-cyanopentanoate) into Mg-Al and Zn-Al layered double hydroxides (LDHs) was studied. The coprecipitated Mg-Al-NO 3 and Zn-Al-NO 3 hydrotalcite-like compounds with M II /Al molar ratio of 2 were used as precursors. The anion exchange and rehydration of calcined LDH precursors were applied for the intercalation. The anion exchange appeared to be the most effective method; all examined organicanions were intercalated successfully by this way both in Mg-Al and Zn-Al host structur es. The intercalated LDHs were us ed as comonomer and initiator for preparation o f LDH/polymethacrylate nanocomposites: mixture of monomer and LDHs intercalated with organic anions were dispersed in aqueous phase and then the emulsion polym erization was performed in the presence of inorganic (nano)particles to obtain polybutylmethacrylate hybrid latexes. Na nostructured hybrid materials containing a low amount (1 - 3 wt%) of inorganic nanofiller were prepared. Particles with size of 60 - 100 nm were detected by dynamic light scattering and small-angle X-ray scattering methods. Furthermore, a hydrophobization of LDH nanof illers with dodecylsulfate (DS) was tested in order to facilitate their dispersion in the polymer matrix. A minor part of AMPS anions was incorporated into Mg-Al-DS LDH during anion exchange in the aqueous solution containing AMPS. Us ing Mg-Al-DS LDH modified w ith AMPS, the nanocomposites were obtained by emulsion polymerization and also by the solution polymer ization in 1-methyl-2-pyrolidone., František Kovanda, Eva Jindová, Barbora Doušová, David Koloušek, Josef Pleštil and Zdeňka Sedláková., and Obsahuje bibliografické odkazy

- Language:

- Description:
- This paper shows how the local effects can change the value of maximum accelerations from mining-induced tremors. The analysis was carried out basing on data collected from acceleration stations installed in Bytom Syncline region (Upper Silesia). The estimation of the local effects was obtained on the basis of deviations from the attenuation relation. The accelerograms were recorded from the mining tremors in low seismic energy range and in epicentral distances in the range from 500m to 5000m. The obtained re sults were correlated with results from Horiz ontal to Vertical Spectral Ratio (HVSR) technique. This method is based on simple theoretical founda tion and is commonly used in natural seismicity studies. Our results show that the H/V ratio technique gives a reasonable estimate of the surface amplification for frequency range between about 2 and 8 Hz. In case of simple geology and when the signal to noise is adequately high the results are the best. All the results show that there occur local effects., Adam Fref and Wacław Marian Zuberek., and Obsahuje bibliografické odkazy

- Language:

- Description:
- This paper presents examples of application of the method of local quasigeoid modelling based on the geophysical technique of gravity data inversion, using non-reduced surface gravity data and GNSS/levelling height anomalies. Its capacity is demonstrated with three examples consisting in computing detailed local quasigeoid models for three areas situated in Poland. The test areas are different in size (3,900, 23,000, 117,000 sq. kilometres), in geographic location as well as in density of the gravity data coverage. For each of the test regions, calculations were done in three variants, viz. without using any global geopotential model and with application of EGM96 and EGM08 models. The obtained results indicate that the applied method is suitable for creating high accuracy local quasigeoid models (the accuracies obtained were at the level of accuracy of GNSS/levelling test data)., Marek Trojanowicz., and Obsahuje bibliografii

- Language:

- Description:
- The paper presents analysis relating to the method of local quasigeoid modelling based on the geophysical technique of gravity data inversion, using non-reduced surface gravity data and GNSS/levelling height anomalies. One of the main problems occurring in the application of the method is to determine the model weighting matrix, the purpose of which is to control the inversion process. This paper presents the analyses concerning the determination of certain constant coefficients signed as, and, appearing in the definition of the model weighting matrix. The calculations performed indicate that because of the accuracy of the density model, the coefficient should be in the range of 01. 0 001. 0, and the range 005.00025.0 should be adopted as the optimal. As the optimal values of the coefficients and, values 1.0 and 01.0, for the zones of constant density with area less than about 130 km2 were determined., Marek Trojanowicz., and Obsahuje bibliografické odkazy

- Description:
- This paper is devoted to a complex review of various monitoring networks operating in the eastern part of the Ostrava- Karviná Coal Basin. In the first place, there were systems for monitoring seismo acoustic emissions during coal extraction. Later a local seismic network was installed which encompasses pa rtial arrays of seismic stati ons located in the individual mines underground. In addition, a special regional seismic network was established in order to ensure reasonable recordings of strong seismic events observed in this area. In 2001 an array was constructed with up to five surface seismic stations which monitor manifestations of rockbursts due to imposed dynamic loading on existing buildings at selected sites. Recently, a quite new monitoring system of accelerometers began operating, the purpose of which is to check the effects of rockbursts on surface structures. Using the output data of all monitoring systems, different graphs were constructed, which can faciliate geophysical interpretation of geodynamic processes in mines., Karel Holub, Josef Holečko, Jana Rušajová and Anna Dombková., and Obsahuje bibliografické odkazy
