abstract

Research on the Běleč creeping slope deformation is a contribution to identification of the causes of a breakdown of the water-supply conduit of the Brno regional water-supply network and to ensuring its regular operation. Field geomorphological mapping was used for the research and dendrogeomorphologic methods, especially the method of analysis of tree rings (eccentric tree rings, growth changes), were used for studying the slope failure dynamism. Slope movement activity in the years 1900–2007 was monitored with the help of 45 boring samples. The analysis of tree rings of common beech (Fagus sylvatica) samples did not prove continual movements over the whole extent of the deformation. The present activity is characterized only by local episodic movements of creeping character in the years 1947, 1975, 1993, 1997 a 2006. It was proved that the slope deformation did not have a direct impact on the breakdown of the water-supply conduit in 2005. Využití dendrogeomorfologických metod při výzkumu svahové deformace Běleč, Českomoravská vrchovina (Česká republika) Výzkum hluboce založené plouživé svahové deformace Běleč je příspěvkem k identifikaci příčin vzniku poruchy vodovodního přivaděče Brněnských oblastních vodovodů a zajištění jeho provozu. Při výzkumu poruchy bylo využito geomorfologického mapování a dendrogeomorfologických metod (analýza excentrických letokruhů, růstové změny), které sloužily ke studiu dynamiky svahové poruchy. Aktivita svahových pohybů mezi roky 1900–2007 byla zkoumána pomocí 45 vyvrtaných jádrových vzorků. Analýza letokruhů buku lesního (Fagus sylvatica) neprokázala kontinuální pohyby v celém rozsahu deformace. Současná aktivita je charakteristická spíše lokálními epizodickými pohyby plouživého charakteru v letech 1947, 1975, 1993, 1997 a 2002. Bylo tak prokázáno, že svahová deformace neměla přímý vliv na poruchu vodovodního přivaděče v roce 2005.
