| Description | The paper is dealing with information about dangerous hydrometeorological phenomena gained from the documents of the Veselí nad Moravou domain related to taxation records, especially the requests of taxpayers for the tax abatement due to a damage caused by natural disasters on their land and buildings. Information about floods, torrential rains, hailstorms, thunderstorms and late frosts were collected for the period 1784–1849 and for the region of three domains: Veselí, Uherský Ostroh and Strážnice. In this time period 58 events were identified and then divided to 78 single dangerous hydrometeorological phenomena named above. The most frequent were floods (26 cases) followed by hailstorms (22) and torrential rains (18). Temporal and spatial variability of these phenomena is analysed. |
