Role of forest in water regime and local climate
Vaníčková, Lucie ; Pokorný, Jan (advisor) ; Šímová, Irena (referee)
Nowadays human society is dealing with comparatively essential problems, such as lack of water and chmate changes. Forests are able to use a great amount of solar radiation efficiently to change liquid water to water steam alongside climate cooling down. Scientists Makarieva and Gorshkov made up a theory which claims that forests are also generators of air humidity. The process is absolutely necessary for replenshing fresh water on land. This theory is based on gradient of pressures among different places. Air flows from places with lover evaporation and higher pressure (ocean) to locations with higher evaporation and lower pressure (forest). In this thesis are described basic mechanisms of theory of biotic pump. Simultaneously there are stated several examples of deforestation, which resulted in significant reduction of precipitation in that area and reduction of accessibility of water for human society. There are also mentioned several examples of attempt to revitalize desertificated area, where the effort is to make cultural landscape to imitate natural vegetation. These projects are primary based on retaining rainwater.

Company valuation
Brada, Jiří ; Pokorný, Jan (advisor) ; Hraba, Zdeněk (referee)
The aim of this thesis was to comprehensively describe the valuation process, emphasize the significance of each part and point out possible pitfalls. The methodological valuation theory is not regulated in the Czech Republic, with a few exceptions, thus the credibility of the final value depends on the economic quality of applied process. Before the valuation methodology itself is applied, there has to be carried out both strategic and financial analysis providing the inputs for the applied models. Strategic analysis examines both general macroeconomic conditions, which could affect future performance of the company, and relevant market the company operates on within the competitive landscape. Strategic analysis provides the inputs into subsequent financial plan, primarily based on historical financial performance of the company, and serve as its corrective. In this thesis there were analyzed yield-based and market multiples methods, complemented by asset-based approach. Yield-based methods, i.e. DCF and EVA, are based on discounted future value which will the company generate. That implicates the suitability of its application for the companies with predictable financial plan. That means mostly companies with stable financial history, in case of young innovative startup the usage of such a method...
