Vlastnické právo k pozemku / Ownership right to landBitomská, Marie January 2016 (has links)
This diploma thesis deals with ownership rights to land. Due to change in legislation caused by Act No. 89/2012 Sb., Civil Code, there were many substantial changes in the area of land ownership, which have extensive impact on some of the institutes of this ownership. This thesis deals exactly with these changes and with newly or more precisely repeatedly implemented institutes of land ownership. Whole thesis aims to give some analysis of this institute with main focus on its specifics and differences. This object is fulfilled by general interpretation, which deals with characteristics of land ownership and its specifics and then it analyses some particular institutes of land ownership mainly those which were considerably changed or newly established by the ratification of the present Civil Code. Next to comparison of present and previous Czech legislation the last chapter of this thesis is devoted to comparison of Czech and German legislation.

Evaluation of Private Landowner Intention to Create Early Successional Habitat in Virginia's Appalachian RegionCoovert, Hannah M 01 January 2019 (has links)
As human land uses continue to expand rapidly across the landscape, the management practices of private landowners are an essential part of effective conservation of biodiversity. Conservation of early successional habitats (ESH) and the species that depend on them is a priority in the eastern United States, and efforts to create more ESH on private lands has primarily focused on forest landowners and the harvesting of timber. Private lands with significant pasture cover in a forested landscape present an additional opportunity to create and maintain ESH, yet our understanding of landowner values and attitudes about management strategies in pastures (i.e., modifying mowing or grazing practices, use of herbicides to control invasive species) is lacking. This study implemented a survey of private landowners in five western Virginia counties who own at least 25 acres that are at or above 2000 ft elevation. This region was selected due to its high priority for declining bird species and its mix of heavily forested ridges and extensive pastureland in its valleys. Our primary objective was to understand what influences private landowner intentions to carry out seven different ESH management strategies (i.e. modified mowing, modified grazing, timber harvests within forest, timber harvests at filed-forest border, prescribed fire, use of machinery, and use of herbicides to control invasive species) for the benefit of wildlife in the next five years. General linear models (GLM) were developed to determine whether landowner values, barriers to management, perceived norms, past experience, organizational membership, and demographics predicted the intention to carry out each management strategy in the next five years. Models explained 22-49% of the variation in landowner intention and predictors of intention differed across the seven management strategies. What landowners’ value about their property significantly predicted behavioral intention but was not consistent across the different management strategies. For example, those most likely to modify mowing and grazing tend to value ecological aspects of their land (i.e., pollinator habitat and water quality) whereas those most likely to harvest timber value hunting and revenue from production on their land. Landowner’s past experience with land management was a strong predictor of likelihood to modify mowing and grazing and to harvest timber. Lastly, members of non-hunting conservation organizations are nearly 7 times more likely to modify grazing practices than non-members, and members of hunting conservation organizations were 2.6 times more likely to use prescribed fire for the benefit of wildlife. These results suggest that expanding outreach efforts to include additional management options for creating ESH (i.e., modification of mowing and grazing practices) and the inclusion of images and verbiage about the benefits to pollinator species, non-game species, and water quality would likely recruit landowners who may not have been recruited with current methods.

Landowner perception, awareness, and adoption of wildfire programs in the Southern United StatesJarrett, Adam R. 15 May 2009 (has links)
Non-industrial Private Forests (NIPF) landowners constitute a major component
of the forested land portfolio in the Southeastern United States. The lands they possess
provide a variety of social benefits but many aspects of how these landowners manage
their properties exist. The goal of this research was to determine overall landowner
awareness regarding wildfire programs and education and identify interrelationships
among management strategies, demographic variables, and experiences. Specifically, it
was hypothesized that landowner program awareness, interest in biomass utilization, and
wildfire mitigation strategies would be influenced by the type of information they
received, management activities, and other factors. Seven logit models were constructed
to analyze these interrelationships.
Results revealed that the type and quality of information landowners received
was important in most cases. Landowners not receiving any information were less likely
to take action to prevent or mitigate wildfire damage to their property. Wildfire
education was highly valued by participants. Knowledge of existing biomass utilization
programs was almost non-existent. However, the desire to obtain information on this topic was high. In general, state agencies were utilized more than federal agencies, and
landowners felt that cost-share programs and marketability of removed biomass would
encourage participation in wildfire prevention activities.

Vlastnické právo k pozemku / The Ownership Right to LandHakrová, Kateřina January 2016 (has links)
The thesis deals with issues relating to the ownership of land, analysing it on two different levels. On the first level, it defines the ownership of the land, particularly its object and subject, and also describes the specific properties of soil, and their manifestations in land property rights and related legislation. On the second level, the work discusses selected institutes in terms of problematic issues that have arisen in connection with the introduction of the Act no. 89/2012 Coll., Civil Code, which has brought into our legal system new institutes or modified to some extent the old ones. The thesis compares the current and the previous legislation and with the aid of the specialized literature seeks to answer the question whether it is possible to perceive these changes positively or whether they are considered rather negative and problematic.

Willingness of Mississippi's Nonindustrial Private Forest Landowners to Manage Forests for Ecosystem ServicesMutandwa, Edward 11 December 2015 (has links)
Private forest land in Mississippi provides a wide range of ecosystem services. This study examined nonindustrial private forest (NIPF) landowner familiarity with ecosystem services and conservation programs and quantified the proportion of forest land they were interested in managing for ecosystem services as well as determined compensation levels required for implementing forest management strategies featuring management restriction to facilitate production of multiple ecosystem services. The data collection process was based on a structured questionnaire administered to 2,025 NIPF landowners in Mississippi. Findings indicated that landowner familiarity with conservation programs was low. However, they were familiar with ecosystem services found in Mississippi. Familiarity with conservation programs was positively associated with gender, household income, possession of a forest management plan, and membership in conservation organizations. The study also determined whether landowners were interested in managing their forests for ecosystem services and the quantified proportion of forest land they would manage for such services. Findings revealed that landowners were interested in managing for multiple ecosystem services and 62% of the forest land could be available for production of such activities in the form of pine and bottomland hardwoods. The proportion of forest land that landowners were interested in managing for ecosystem services was positively associated with the percentage proportion of natural pine and bottomland hardwoods as well as personal recreation goals while negatively related to a possession of a written forest management plan. The research also used a contingent valuation to quantify monetary compensation levels that landowners were willing to accept to adopt forest management restrictions to facilitate ecosystem services. The willingness to accept (WTA) compensation levels ranged from $190.22 to $595.23/ha/year. Higher compensation was required with a higher level of management restrictions. WTA compensation to implement forest management activities was positively associated with bid level and long-term investment goal. Findings will be useful in facilitating outreach activities in terms of identifying groups of interested landowners, forest land available for multiple ecosystem service production, and quantifying the total cost of implementing forest management facilitating an increased production of ecosystem services.
