Hydromorfologický prieskum Váhu ako nástroj pre manažment vodných tokov na Slovensku

Rok, strany: 2013, 61 - 82

The characterization of the physical structure and the quality of a habitat is becoming more important in the environmental planning and management of rivers. The Water Framework Directive which views morphology as a basic component of rivers, requires that the EU member states evaluate hydromorphological quality as a part of the ecological assessment of their water bodies. The purpose of this paper is to assess the natural conditions on the River Váh in the upper Liptov region by means of hydromorphological and botanical survey of the river corridor and to contribute to its conservation and restoration. The results – more than 20 detailed maps, field records and photographs – give a precise and timely picture of the river channel’s natural condition and its morphological features, including information about the abundance of trees and shrubs, but also a list of the sources of pollution and illegal waste dumps and the localities with invasive plant species. This information not only assists as a resource for any further research on fluvial processes, but it is also an important part of any environmental planning and management process, whether it is a structural engineering, revitalization or a conservation project.
