Variability of water quality parameters in selected reservoirs in Prague
Stará, Eva ; Ettler, Vojtěch (advisor) ; Chalupová, Dagmar (referee)
Small water reservoirs in urban areas have important landscape-forming and environmental roles. However, numerous anthropogenic activities can influence the water quality in these urban ponds. This thesis evaluates and compares the water quality in selected ponds in Prague area (Motol, Stodůlky, Háje) by means of regular water monitoring between May and November 2013. Parameters commonly used as indicators of anthropogenic load were monitored (NO3 - , NH4 + , PO4 3- , Cl- , dissolved oxygen, chemical oxygen demand) and supplemented with the investigation of other chemical and physico-chemical parameters (alkalinity, acidity, water hardness, pH, Ca2+ , NO2 - , specific conductivity). Data were evaluated using Czech technical norm (ČSN - EN 75 7221), which defines five categories of surface water quality. Our data indicated that surface water from reservoirs in Motol exhibited the best water quality (1st category), reservoirs from Stodůlky were slightly polluted and reservoirs from Háje exhibited the poorest water quality (with some parameters exhibiting values corresponding to the 4th category). We found statistically significant correlations between the alkalinity, water hardness, COD and concentrations of NO3 - , Ca2+ , Cl- and PO4 3- . Moreover, numerous parameters are dependent on cumulative...

Earthquake as a geological process, its prediction and effective protection against it
Stará, Eva ; Vilhelm, Jan (advisor) ; Michálek, Jan (referee)
Summary: The earthquake, one of the natural disasters, affects the lives of people and their properties even in today's advanced age. Seismology and Geology have made a significant progress in understanding the physical and geological phenomenons connected to earthquakes. Thus many consequences of earthquakes can be considerably reduced. Seismic risk estimation and a proper use of antiseismic elements in structures of resistant buildings as well as of early warning systems significantly lowers the impacts of this destructive element. Especially the correct and on-time prediction could contribute to an effective protection from earthquakes but this still remains a challenge for geologists worldwide.

Light design in nonverbal theatre
Stará, Eva ; CAPKO, Štefan (advisor) ; SOPROVÁ, Jana (referee)
This thesis concentrates on the subject of light design and its application in nonverbal theatre. This thesis introduces the different technical and esthetic possibilities and techniques when working with light in such a way so that one can precieve its versatility and use it in ones own production. Its aim is to simplify communication and work with the light designer.
