Analysis of time series of anions and cations concentrations in the Kopaninsky stream catchment in relation to land use.

Water quality of small streams in agricultural landscape is mostly classified as polluted or very polluted. The reason of enhanced mineralization of organic mass in soil can be found in changed physical, chemical and biochemical properties of soil profile, which negatively display in mineralization of organic mass and nitrogen release to soil water. Analysis of water quality in agricultural river-basin prove that quality of surface water in areas with high nitrate loadings did not significantly improve in recent years. Nitrates in water are a distinct anthropogenic factor, which defines well disturbance in natural environment. This thesis deals with analysis of time series of nitrate concentrations in the Kopaninsky stream catchment in Bohemo-Moravian Highland. Further the progress in nitrate concentration and its seasonal component is researched
