The PhD. thesis will consist of two consecutive parts: i) climate projection using RCMs for the Czech Republic in the chosen time horizon in the near future (e.g. 2050) and ii) modelling the vulnerability of the landscape to the occurrence of hydrological extremes based on the appropriate modelling techniques. Hydrological modelling will be carried out for selected river basin(s), with climate projection providing an important input to the hydrological model. Data on expected land-use/land cover change in the Czech Republic is the possible next input. It is also assumed that the influence of different selected measures (both technical and nature-based solutions) will be considered in the modelling. The main objective of the PhD. thesis will be an analysis of the spatial distribution of sites within the selected basin(s) that are significantly vulnerable to the occurrence of extreme hydrological situations as an impact of climate change in Central Europe until 2050. In addition, the candidate's attention will also be focused on the issue of soil loss and sediment accumulation as a direct consequence of extreme hydrological situations. Therefore, the possible scenarios of vulnerability to hydrological risks, considering the different measures taken and taking into account the expected climate and environmental change impacts will represent the main outputs of the work.
