This thesis deals with the evaluation impact of the modifications of floodplain and river network to the course and consequences of floods on the example of Stropnice river, located in South Bohemia. The thesis evaluate causes, course and effects of the floods, that took place in the basin with special focus to the recent floods. The basin was hit by extreme flood in 2002, while in 2005, 2006, 2009 other floods with different origin and magnitude took place in the basin. The assessment was based on field survey, and application of GIS analysis of results for identification of critical stream segments, which may influence the course of flood events. To get information about river network modification the HEMF field survey methodology was used. The following rivers were mapped: Stropnice river, Svinenský, Klenský and Žárský brook. The critical stream segments are spread in the whole Stropnice basin. It can be concluded that the anthropogenic effects are apparent in the whole basin including its headwater part in mountains. In several critical stream segments there were proposed measures aimed to reduce the consequences of potential flood events.

The topic of this thesis is forest park's Bažantnice mapping. The thesis suggests the way of aplication of botanic terrain education.

Thesis deals with the mapping of our species of amphibians and reptiles in the hills of St. Thomas and the right bank of Lipno. Findings of older data in the atlas and the lack of extension work to monitor the biodiversity of species inspired me to map the location. Alignment of the square with the border position was more than 40 years, closed intensive human activities. This reasoning was that the richness and diversity of amphibians and reptiles could be acknowledge. The aim was to monitor the designated area and to identify the occurrence of individual species of amphibians and reptiles. Locate their habitats in which they propose to Match and protect this natural heritage for the future.

The presented diploma thesis concerns with a study of historic and contemporary human influence on the region of Valašská Polanka. The changes in landscape are evaluated by comparing historic maps and sources with its actual condition. Segments of land in the landscape park (Javorníky) as well as outside of it (Vizovické Hills) were selected for further examination and were charted from the perspective of their biotopes. The charted areas include parts of agrarian domains, in this case extensively utilized pastures. The segments mapped on these sites were divided into various categories according to the landscape features (wetland, forest borderland, dispersed greenery). A collection of precaution steps for these features was created, based on the newly gained information. The paper also includes possibilities of application of subsidy programs in agriculture.

The paper maps the community of Common Juniper (Juniperus Communis) encountered at Konrac, a site included in the Česká Kanada Nature Preserve. The site itself, or rather the common juniper growing there, does not have the benefit of special legal protection; consequently, no targeted steps have been taken to maintain the juniper community intact in the Konrac landscape - still, the site allowed to monitor the natural development of the community in conditions typical of the current methods of farming. The locality is described to encompass four main types of habitats: stony islands amid meadows; unplowed strips of land around former small fields; peripheries of open stands; and peripheries of close stands. The acquired (and subsequently processed) data point to the conclusion that the habitat at the unplowed margins of fields suits the common juniper communities quite well, even without any human intervention in the farming practices beyond what is implemented on the site now.

The cadastral district of Čejkovice was chosen for mapping of landscape features. The district is located approximately 9 km to the north-west of České Budějovice on a surface of 955 hectares. The following materials were used to map the territory in question ? the plan of the Territorial System of Ecological Stability and the orthophotograph map available at geoportal.gov and historical aerial photos from the Military Geographical and Hydrometeorological Institute of Dobruška. The incidence and representation of individual features were ascertained during mapping of the territory and the features were categorized. The categorization serves to process the results ? to evaluate the frequency and surface (length) of the features and at the same time to compare the present status with the status of the 1950?s. The GIS (Geographic Information Systems) software program was used to evaluate the results. At present, 38 landscape features can be found in the territory of Čejkovice (1 watercourse, 9 ponds, 4 woods, 8 woody plant groups, 9 alleys and 7 solitary plants. In 1950?s, 29 features could be found in the territory (1 watercourse, 10 ponds, 3 woods, 6 woody plant groups, 8 alleys and 1 solitary plant). The solitary plants have experienced the greatest difference ? increase by 6 plants. The surface of ponds has been increased as compared to the past status and the surface of woods has grown as well. The condition of the features does not differ too much as compared to the past condition. The most landscape features have experienced growth of surface.

An objective of this diploma thesis is to propose optimized system of packaging technologies in a certain foodstuff production enterprise considering logistical operations within distribution chain. Reverse flows, environmental impacts and final consumer needs are taken into an account. There are many degrees of freedom within packaging technologies. Every product could be packaged in several ways. However the final step for transportation is common for every piece of them, a trailer, a container or any other handling unit of higher grade. Czech beer market is highly saturated. Many domestic breweries concern to invest their forces to export markets. Application of current management and logistics tools and methods rescues capital sources for more effective usage.

This thesis concerns with implementation of the Habitats Directive into Czech legislation. It deals with the change in quality of habitats and European habitat types. It also considers potential impact of special areas of conservation on this change in the South Bohemian Region. In the intersections of segments from the layer of habitat mapping and the updated layer, the data from these layers that describe quality were compared. From the reports under Article 17 submitted by the Czech Republic, information about future prospects and structure and function change in those habitat types was obtained. Negative change in quality was found in habitats, while the change in habitat types was mostly positive or none. This difference is a reflection of distinct methodologies.

This presented diploma thesis deals with evaluation of the traffic noise influence on the health of the exposed population. The objectives of this thesis are based on the results of Environmental Health System in the Czech Republic (Subsystem III), which provides the long-term monitoring of the noise in the municipal environment of the chosen agglomerations. A part of the noisy location monitoring is also the questionnaire survey confirming hypothesis n.1: "At the traffic noise perceiving, there is an important psychosocial bound, which often stands in opposition to the results of the noise measurements". Furthermore, the thesis describes the results of the indicative measurement of the chosen noisy localities in comparison with same locality measurements in the technical accuracy class. The indicative gauge tests were made on the traffic-busy roads in Jihlava city. The measurement has proved the link between the intensity of the traffic flow and indicatively determined noise levels and practical applicability for the local planning or local controlling incentives solution. The results of the indicative measurements point out to breaking of the equivalent night noise levels for sleep disturbance in three chosen localities. Breaking of the equivalent day noise levels has a nature of the noise annoyance. The measured road-traffic-caused night and day noise levels may be compared to the recommendations for the risks of increased incidence of selected civilization diseases published by the World Health Organisation.

The diploma thesis studies accuracy of cheap GPS devices intended for mobile mapping in the landscape. Methodlogy for testing the accuracy of two GPS devices was established on the base of studied literature and apllied to two different GPS devices. The first device is PDA ASUS A639 connected by Bluetooth with external GPS reciever Navilock BT-338 and the second one is PDA ASUS A639 using its inbuilt GPS chipset. The result of testing is firstly comparison of accuracy of these two GPS devices and secondly the elements, which influnce their accuracy the most. The database of results is large enough to make some general conclusions concerning the accuracy of different GPS devices and their usage in the process of mobile mapping.
