Die vorliegende Untersuchung befasst sich mit der Variation des gesprochenen Deutsch von Nachfahren böhmischer Einwanderer in der Gemeinde von Linha Brasil in Paverama, Rio Grande do Sul, Südbrasilien, auch Eestreich (vgl. Hdt. Österreich) von der lokalen Bevölkerung genannt. Diese Gruppe von Einwanderern siedelte sich um 1873 in der Gegend an, und zwar in einem Gebiet, in dem bereits Hunsrücker sowie auch andere Gruppen angesiedelt waren. Als Böhmer bezeichnet man im Folgenden eine Gruppe deutschsprachiger Einwanderer, die aus der Ausgangsmatrix Böhmen stammt, das heute ein Teil der Tschechischen Republik ist, zum Zeitpunkt der Auswanderung aber zur ehemaligen Österreichisch-Ungarischen Monarchie gehörte (1867-1918). In Brasilien kamen diese Immigranten nicht nur in Kontakt mit dem Portugiesischen, sondern auch mit anderen deutschen Varietäten, besonders mit dem Hunsrückischen in der Nachbarsiedlung Santa Manoela (auf Deutsch auch Russland genannt). Das zentrale Ziel dieser Studie besteht darin, die Konstitution und Merkmale der deutschen Varietät dieser böhmischen Einwanderergruppe im Kontakt mit dem Hunsrückischen als dominierende Koine und dem Portugiesischen als Amtssprache Brasiliens zu erkennen. Diese Sprachkontakte spielen eine zentrale Rolle in der Dynamik der Variation; sie werden in einem Sprachkontinuum zwischen standardsprachlichen Merkmalen und dem Substandard beschrieben Es wird daher insbesondere 1. nach linguistischen Merkmalen gesucht, die mit dem ursprünglichen Repertoire der böhmischen Einwanderer verbunden sind. Man geht hinsichtlich dieses Repertoires von einer Diglossie aus, zwischen der Standardnorm für schriftliche und formelle Funktionen und einer basilektalen Varietät für die familiären und informellen Funktionen. 2. Hinsichtlich der Weiterentwicklung des Deutschen bei dieser böhmischen Gruppe werden ergänzend die Folgen des Kontakts mit der Hunsrückischen Koine beschrieben. 3. Durch den Vergleich mit dieser Koine wird der Grad der Präsenz von böhmischen Dialektmerkmalen in den verschiedenen sozialen Segmenten (diastratische und diagenerationelle Dimension) genauer erschlossen, sowie auch die sozialen Faktoren, die diese Entwicklung beeinflussen. Zum Schluss werden zur Kontrolle perzeptuelle Aspekte der Kennzeichnung der böhmischen Varietät im Kontakt zwischen den Sprechern beider Sprachgemeinschaften erfasst (diarreferentielle Dimension). Um die gesprochene Variation und sprachliche Gestaltung des Deutschen der böhmischen Gruppe zu analysieren, orientiert sich die vorliegende Untersuchung an den theoretischen und methodischen Prinzipien der pluridimensionalen und relationalen Dialektologie (THUN, 1998), wie im ALMA-H Projekt (Sprachkontaktatlas der deutschen Minderheiten im La Plata-Becken: Hunsrückisch, koordiniert von C. Altenhofen / UFRGS und H. Thun / Universität Kiel) durchgeführt Diese Perspektive versucht die Daten der sprachlichen Variation der Forschungsobjektsprache („deutschböhmische Varietät“) in verschiedenen Dimensionen der Analyse zu konfrontieren. Die diatopisch-kinetische Dimension enthält die Variation der Sprache zwischen der Ursprungsmatrix (Böhmen) und dem heutigen geographischen Gebiet (Brasilien), in der sich Einwanderer im Jahre 1873 niederließen. Die diagenerationelle Dimension konzentriert sich auf die Variation zwischen der älteren Generation (GII) und der jüngeren Generation (GI). Schließlich wird in der diastratischen Dimension auf der Basis kontrastierender Daten von Ca (mit Hochschulbildung) und Cb (bis zur Sekundarschule) die Rolle der Schulbildung näher präzisiert. Für die Datenerhebungen wurde einen Fragebogen verwendet, der auf dem Fragebogen des ALMA-H basiert und ausgewählte Variablen spezifisch für die Ziele der Untersuchung umfasst. Es wurden insofern Interviews mit vier Gruppen von Informanten durchgeführt (CaGII, CbGII, CaGI und CbGI), vier in Linha Brasil (als böhmisches Ort) und vier in Santa Manoela (als Hunsrückisches Vergleichsort). Dabei wurden nur wenige böhmische Merkmale erkannt und mit den verschiedenen Dimensionen korreliert Die Ergebnisse bestätigen die Hypothese, dass diese böhmischen Migranten zwar mit einer Diglossie kamen, in dem sie eine Varietät [+dialektal] für informelle Beziehungen und eine Varietät des Standarddeutschen [+Standard] für formale Funktionen verwendet haben, aber nach fast 145 Jahren einen starken Koineizierungsprozess nachweisen, durch diese Einwanderer ihr Deutsch an die hunsrückische Koine angepasst haben und praktisch durch sie ersetzt haben. Es überleben lediglich vereinzelte basilektale Formen der Ursprungsmatrix (Böhmen), obwohl überwiegend als passive Kenntnisse (die nur zum Teil in Erinnerung kommen) und fast ausschließlich in der älteren Generation (CbGII). Dieser Verlust verschärft sich im Gegensatz dazu immer mehr bei Sprechern der jüngeren Generation (GI), die zunehmend zur Hunsrückischen Varietät übergeht, sowie auch des Portugiesischen als herrschende Amtssprache. / A presente pesquisa ocupa-se com a variação do alemão falado por descendentes de imigrantes boêmios na comunidade de Linha Brasil, autodenominada ‘Eestreich’ (Hdt: Österreich), em Paverama, no Rio Grande do Sul (RS), Brasil. Esse grupo de imigrantes instalou-se na localidade por volta de 1873, em uma área em que já estavam hunsriqueanos (Hunsrückisch) e outros grupos. O conceito de boêmio refere-se à matriz de partida dos imigrantes alemães na Boêmia (parte da atual República Tcheca), que na época da emigração pertencia ao antigo Império Austro-Húngaro (1867-1918). No Brasil estes imigrantes entraram em contato não somente com o português, mas também com outras variedades do alemão, em especial com o Hunsrückisch falado na comunidade vizinha de Santa Manoela (autodenominada de ‘Russland’) e demais comunidades do entorno. O objetivo central deste estudo é identificar como se formou o alemão falado pelos boêmios. Para isso, consideram-se os contatos linguísticos presentes na comunidade, entre as variedades da matriz de origem (possivelmente a norma local do Hochdeutsch e uma variedade dialetal de uso familiar) e as variedades do novo meio, especialmente o português e o hunsriqueano como coiné dominante. Assim sendo, este estudo envolve os seguintes objetivos específicos: 1) descrever as marcas linguísticas associadas à variedade dos imigrantes boêmios na sua comparação com a variedade da coiné hunsriqueana; 2) verificar o grau de presença de marcas mais dialetais do boêmio nos diferentes segmentos sociais (dimensão diastrática e dimensão diageracional), identificando os fatores sociais que atuam na conservação ou perda dessas marcas; e 3) analisar a percepção dos falantes e o significado social dessas marcas no contato com as demais variedades (dimensão diarreferencial) Para analisar a variação e configuração linguística do alemão falado pelo grupo boêmio, este estudo se orienta pelos pressupostos teórico-metodológicos da Dialetologia Pluridimensional e Relacional (THUN, 1998), como vem sendo praticada pelo projeto ALMA-H (Atlas Linguístico-Contatual das Minorias Alemãs na Bacia do Prata: Hunsrückisch), coordenado por C. Altenhofen (UFRGS) e H. Thun (Univ. Kiel, Alemanha). Essa perspectiva busca confrontar os dados da variação linguística da língua-objeto da pesquisa (o “alemão dos boêmios”) em diferentes dimensões de análise. Na dimensão diatópico-cinética considera-se a variação da língua entre a matriz de origem (Böhmen) e a área geográfica atual (RS), onde os imigrantes se fixaram em 1873. A dimensão diageracional se foca na variação entre a geração mais velha (GII) e a mais jovem (GI). Por fim, na dimensão diastrática analisa-se o papel da escolaridade, contrastando os dados da Ca (com a escolaridade superior) e da Cb (até segundo grau). Para a coleta de dados foi utilizado um questionário reduzido, a partir do questionário-base do Projeto ALMA-H, e adaptado no sentido de selecionar variáveis relevantes para atingir os objetivos deste estudo. Deste modo, foram realizadas entrevistas e observações de campo com quatro grupos de informantes (CaGII, CbGII, CaGI e CbGI) em Linha Brasil (como núcleo boêmio) e em Santa Manoela (como ponto de comparação hunsriqueano), a fim de identificar as marcas distintivas do boêmio e sua correlação (perda ou manutenção) conforme as diferentes dimensões de análise Os resultados confirmam a hipótese de que estes imigrantes boêmios vieram com uma diglossia, em que usavam uma variedade [+dialetal] para as relações informais e uma variedade [+standard] do Hochdeutsch para funções formais, mas também confirmam um forte processo de coineização que levou os boêmios a acomodarem sua fala à coiné do Hunsrückisch. No entanto, algumas formas basiletais da matriz de origem (Böhmen) resistiram a esse processo, embora sobrevivam predominantemente como conhecimento passivo, especialmente de falantes da geração mais velha (GII). Por outro lado, a geração jovem (GI) ainda possui o conhecimento ativo do hunsriqueano, contudo tende a substituir cada vez mais esta variedade de imigração pelo frequente uso do português. / The current research investigates the variation of the German language spoken by descendants of Bohemian immigrants in the community of Linha Brasil, self-named 'Eestreich' (standard German: Österreich), in Paverama, Rio Grande do Sul (RS), Brazil. This group of immigrants settled in the locality around 1873, in an area in which there were already Hunsrückisch speakers and other groups. The concept of Bohemian refers to the starting matrix of German immigrants in Bohemia (part of the present Czech Republic), which at the time of emigration belonged to the former Austro-Hungarian Empire (1867-1918). In Brazil, these immigrants had contact not only with Portuguese, but also with other varieties of German, especially the Hunsrückisch, spoken in the neighboring community of Santa Manoela (self-named 'Russland') and other surrounding communities. The main purpose of this study is to identify the German spoken by Bohemian immigrants, considering all the linguistic contacts present in this community. There are language varieties from the matrix of origin, possibly the local standard German and a dialectal variety of family use, besides the varieties of the new environment, especially the Portuguese and the Hunsrückisch as dominant koine. Therefore, this study involves the following specific objectives: 1) to describe the linguistic marks associated with the variety of Bohemian immigrants, comparing them with the variety of the Hunsrückisch's koine; 2) to verify the presence the degree of more dialectal Bohemian marks in the different social segments (diastratic dimension and diagenerational dimension), identifying the factors that contributed for conserving or losing these marks; and 3) to analyze the perception and social meaning of these marks by the speakers, in the contact with the other varieties (diarreferential dimension) To analyze the variation and linguistic configuration of German spoken by the Bohemian group, the study is guided by the theoretical and methodological principles of Pluridimensional and Relational Dialectology (THUN, 1998), as it has been practiced by the ALMA-H project (Linguistic Contact Atlas of German Minorities in Río de La Plata Basin: Hunsrückisch), coordinated by C. Altenhofen (UFRGS) and H. Thun (University of Kiel, Germany). This perspective tries to confront the data of the linguistic variation of the research-object language (the "Bohemian German dialect") in different dimensions of analysis. The variation of the language between the origin matrix (Böhmen/Bohemia) and the current geographical area (Brazil) is considered under the diatopic-kinetic dimension, where immigrants settled in 1873. The diagenerational dimension focuses on the variation between the older generation (GII) and the younger generation (GI). Ultimately, in the diastratic dimension, the sholarity role is analyzed by comparing the data from Ca (from secondary school to university) against the Cb (from the illiterate to those who finished nine years of school). For data collection, a reduced questionnaire was used based on the ALMA-H questionnaire and adapted to select relevant variables to achieve the purposes of this study. Thus, interviews and field observations were carried out with four informants groups (CaGII, CbGII, CaGI e CbGI) in Linha Brasil (as a bohemian nucleus) and in Santa Manoela (as a point of Hunsrückisch comparison) in order to identify the distinctive marks of the Bohemian and their correlation (loss or maintenance) according to the different dimensions of analysis The results confirm the hypothesis that these Bohemian immigrants came with a diglossia, in which they used a variety [+ dialect] for informal relationships and a variety [+ standard] of the standard German for formal functions. They also confirm a strong koineisation process that led the Bohemians to accommodate their speech to the Hunsrückisch's koine. However, some basilect forms of the origin matrix (Bohemia) resisted this process, although they survive predominantly as passive knowledge, especially of speakers of the older generation (GII). On the other hand, although the young generation (GI) still has the active knowledge of the Hunsrückisch, they tend to replace this variety of immigration more and more by the frequent use of Portuguese.

This diploma thesis is aimed at assessing the provision of emergency electric power supply to hospitals in South Bohemia. The chapter titled Present State briefly characterises the generation of electric power, the history of power plants in the Czech Republic, the power distribution system, it lists the basic elements of the power distribution system, including its stability and security. Among other things, it presents the term of blackout and its potential impact on the society. Furthermore, this chapter deals with the infrastructure in relation with the critical infrastructure and its history. At the end of this chapter, the functioning of health service is mentioned in relation to emergency situations, including the emergency sources used by hospitals. The research made use of the qualitative method of data collection and the data was acquired through the technique of controlled interviews and a secondary analysis of data from competent South Bohemian hospital staff who is responsible for or deal with the issue or providing emergency power supplies.

The thesis analyses compensations of damages caused by great cormorant (Phalacrocorax carbo) in fish farms in South Bohemian Region pursuant to Act. No 115/2000 Sb. till 2011. In the introductory section is described a development of population of nesting and migrating Great cormorants in Europe, particularly in the Czech Republic from the 80th of last century, and reasons for conflict between this species conservation and fish farming including legal conditions for compensation to pond owners and a development of compensation issues in the Czech Republic. This thesis assesses an overall status of the compensation of damages already paid in South Bohemia, analyses claimants according subject type and compares the amount of compensation of damages in relation to the number and the pond area including the frequency of submitted apllications by different types of claimants and the relationship to individual districts of South Bohemian Region. The survey in five chosen ponds in Třeboňsko region evaluates a current secondary damages caused by Great cormorants in the form of injured fishes obtained during fishing out.

During our lives, we encounter various situations which we must learn to face so that the impacts on the lives, health and the environment can be as small as possible. One of the means of help usable for the crisis management is to prepare emergency and crisis plans. Given the frequency of natural and anthropogenic threats the planning has become an essential part of our lives. After the amendment of Act No. 240/2000 Coll., on crisis management, the obligation to process emergency preparedness plans for individual entities ensuring implementation of the measures resulting from the emergency plan of the region was updated. For this reason, I have focused in my thesis on the development of the emergency preparedness plan for South Bohemian University Colleges and Canteens. In the theoretical part, I first explained some basic terms. I continued with the description of threads and risks along with the evaluation methods. I also focused on measures to protect population which are on a very good level in CR, some of them has even become a model for the neighbouring countries. I mentioned the crisis situations that are declared when an incident event grows into a crisis situation. Then, I formulated the role of state authorities, local government bodies, security councils and emergency committees. I closed up the theoretical knowledge with the issue of safety planning which aims to reduce the consequences of situation that endanger us. The theoretical part is followed by research conducted by the qualitative form of data collection. The main question that the thesis wants to answer is: What are the risks that endanger performance of the tasks arising from the crisis plan of the region to South Bohemian University in ČB ? Colleges and Canteens? As regards the methodology of the thesis, it was crucial to gather data needed for the processing of the emergency preparedness plan, which are achieved through controlled interviews with the Director of Colleges and University Canteens, safety officer of the University, Head of University Canteen, maintenance staff and through cooperation with the ČHMÚ. I obtained other relevant information through cooperation with the South Bohemian HZS which provided the necessary cooperation needed to prepare this plan. It mainly included information needed to analyze external threat. Then I analyzed the internal risks which could interfere with the function of the entity and thus performance of tasks from the regional emergency plan. At this stage it was necessary to examine the University College and Canteen buildings. When analyzing the risks I came to a conclusion that the operation of the South Bohemian University Colleges and Canteens may be discontinued by the following hazards: natural floods (only in the case of Colleges K5 and K6), special floods, road transport of dangerous substances, risks resulting from climatic conditions (snow calamity and long-lasting frosts, storms, hurricanes, torrential rains), building fires, gas leaks (endangering the buildings of Colleges K1, K2, K3 and Canteens where gas is used for cooking appliances), power supply failure, heat supply failure and failures in the supply of food and water. The thesis findings can serve not only to deal with crisis situations but they can also be used by South Bohemian University students as a source of information or a basis for other work aimed at e.g. creating suitable conditions and environment for communication with people affected by the crisis situation who were forced to leave their homes and temporarily stay in the buildings of the University Colleges and Canteens. As these events cause pressure on human mind it is necessary to provide assistance to these people.

The dissertation thesis is focused on regional brands. The main objective was to create a general model of regional brand introduction and its further spread. A perspective of the business entity is taken. The model was then applied to the South Bohemia region of Czech Republic. A decision support system was designed from this application to help the entrepreneurs to implement the most effective regional brand for them. The thesis also defines the basic terminology associated with regional brands. The conclusion formulated recommendations on the further development of the model, respectively, other application of the model and further researches.

The aim of this study was to compare and contrast mineral and microbial nitrogen concentrations in soils of semi-natural and natural mountain spruce forests in the Březník area, the Bohemian Forest National Park, under dead wood and four plant dominants with respect to different forest management after windstorm and bark beetle events applied in 1997.

The aim of this thesis is to obtain current information on services for people with visual and hearing disability in trains, buses, cinemas, theaters and cultural attractions in the South Bohemian Region, and also determine their satisfaction with the above mentioned services. Thesis in its theoretical level deals with the theme of visual and hearing disability in terms of etiology, diagnosis, terminology and classification, a closer is devoted to the problems of persons with these two specific types of disability. Indicates the possibility of their education and training organizations for these people and provides a brief look into the history of the care for people with visual and hearing disability. In the next section the theoretical analysis are described in detail currently available in social services, transportation and cultural area of the South Bohemian Region and lists a number of organizations providing such services. There are services targeted directly to the clients with both the types of medical disability. The research then brings practical knowledge of the subjects specified issues. The form of the questionnaire survey on a sample population specifically the presence of visual and hearing disability residing in the South Bohemian Region were surveyed respondents' views on the topics of research. Structured interviews with people with visual and hearing disability representatives dealing with services for this population group disseminates research on qualitative dimension and gives a more comprehensive and coherent view of individuals at the researched topic. The results obtained by means of a poll survey and controlled interviews that offer services in the areas of transport and addressed the cultural sphere in the South Bohemian Region of the relatively high level. The interviewed people with visual and hearing disability declared in his most satisfaction with these services, many of them would of course welcome and some partial improvement of their quality and availability. Data obtained from the research and the conclusions drawn from them can serve as recommendations for practice, including for organizations active in the field of the care for people with medical disability, but also for public officials giving the basic concept in the field of social services, transport and culture of the South Bohemian Region.

The thesis is devoted to the issue of vaccination problematics and awareness of tick-borne encephalitis in a selected population group in South Bohemia. For the needs of research, the selected group was composed of students of secondary schools and grammar schools in the South Bohemian Region in the age group from 13 to 19 years old. The objectives of this work was to analyze the incidence of tick-borne encephalitis in the Czech Republic and the South Bohemian Region between 2000 and 2015, to compare the vaccination in the Czech Republic with the other European countries, to find the vaccination of a selected age group in the South Bohemian Region and to analyze the level of awareness of the risks of tick-borne encephalitis by the polling method and the attitude of the age group to vaccination against this disease. To achieve the objectives was used a secondary analysis of the data from the EpiDat system, where the incidence of the disease was detected in the period in the South Bohemian Region and the Czech Republic. The questionnaire survey was used to obtain awareness on observed disease and attitude of the study group towards vaccination against tick-borne encephalitis. The conclusions of the questionnaire survey were obtained on the basis of statistical processing in the MS Excel spreadsheet. For my significant findings from my research, I consider 80% of the vaccination in the monitored group. Information on tick-borne encephalitis in most cases did not get the respondents from a doctor, but from family members, from the internet or from television. However, information on vaccination is given to respondents to a greater extent. Contributions by insurance companies do not motivate more than half of respondents to inoculation. Research has also shown, that respondents have insufficient information about the amount of the contribution and whether their insurance company provide the contribution at all. In view of these circumstances, I consider the increased promotion of this vaccination by insurance companies to be very desirable.

The main aim of this thesis is to analyze the regional conditions of usage of financial resources from the European Regional Development Fund (ERDF) in the South Bohemian region. Apart from this, the analyze of intensity of usage of the European resources in comparision with other regions of the Czech Republic will be done.
