New bathymetric mapping of the Bohemian Forest glacial lakes
The article gives a historical overview of bathymetric measurements of glacial lakes in the Bohemian Forest in the course of the 19th and 20th centuries. A special attention is paid to Václav Švambera's works from the beginning of the 20th century. These works are confronted with results of the latest measurements made by workers of the Department of Physical Geography and Geoecology of the Faculty of Science, Charles University, with the help of advanced equipments.
