Impact of volcanic activity on environment and climatic conditions during geological history of the České středohoří Mts.
Zajícová, Jana ; Kvaček, Zlatko (advisor) ; Teodoridis, Vasilis (referee)
The influence of volcanoes on climate is very often debated, not only in the scientific community. However, the question remains, how much may the volcanic activity contribute to the significant ganges, that could cause a response of environment, which lies in the immediate vicinity. These changes could arise as a response on prolonged exposure of the negative influence, which would last much longer than decades, like it is at present. From this reason the situation in the České středohoří Mountains, where the volcanic activity lasted for several million years during the Paleogene period, is studied. This area is extraordinally rich in deposits of so-called volcanic floras, which accompany the neovolcanic activity. The age of the localities are between late Eocene to late Oligocene and it is a long time enough for recognizing some changes in the floristic composition to help elucidate the given problem.

Naturalistic and cultural characteristics of the Jizerske hory Mts.
Zrůstová, Klára ; Teodoridis, Vasilis (advisor) ; Andreska, Jan (referee)
The bachelor thesis summarizes in a comprehensive way all existing knowledge about the Jizera Mountains. The first part is focused on the form of the local habitat, the occurrence of animal and plant species etc.; individual chapters deal with geology, climate, fauna, flora and waters of the Jizera Mountains. The work further follows the detailed historical development of the mountain settlement since the arrival of the oldest inhabitants up to present. The forestry and glass-making are mentioned as well. In the Jizera Mountains area as a part of Sudetenland, a significant percentage of the population was represented by Germans therefore the issue of their displacement from this region is also the important component. The example of the researched abandoned villages and partly abandoned colonies illustrates how the end of the World War II and the following displacement of the population from border territories influenced the whole concept of landscape. The work contains the statistical data of the number of both inhabitants and houses in each village. The integral part of this work is the description of the current form of the mountains, building development since the 1950s and ecological disasters. The exploitation and pollution of the Jizera Mountains are outlined as well as the chapter regarding...

Evalution of state and management of small-scale especially reserved areas in Prague and environs
Ptáčková, Šárka ; Teodoridis, Vasilis (advisor) ; Hanel, Lubomír (referee)
The aim of the M.Sc thesis is evaluation of the ten small-scale especially reserved territories ("mZCHU") in the southeastern part of Prague following the methodic of the evaluation of small- scale especially reserved territories (Svátek & Buček; 2005). These territories are individually described in the first part of this diploma thesis, then I shortly give an account of the methodic I used and in the main part of this work the analyzed territories are described and ranked .By analyzing the acquired information I discovered that the overall condition of these territories is average (70%). 10% of territories are excellent, 50% are good, 30% average, 10% bad. None of these territories was rated as very bad. Using the same methodic I evaluated the intensity of management for these territories; with these outcomes: 10% excellent, 60% good, 30% average. None of these territories was very bad. In the conclusion of this work is analyzed the comparison of acquired information with the outcomes of the evaluation of mZCHU areas in southwestern part of Prague (Hamplová; 2008), in the village of Štěpánov (Bubeníková; 2008) and with territories in competence of CHKO Pálava (Rejžek; 2008). The outcomes of comparation of these territories shows that areas in southeast part of Prague and chosen territories of CHKO Pálava...

Plant hormones
Petrlíková, Tatiana ; Teodoridis, Vasilis (advisor) ; Pavlasová, Lenka (referee)
Plant hormones Issued bachelor thesis is to in understandable way approximate problems of botanical hormones not only to university students, but also to teachers and student at 4 year and 8 year grammar schools and even secondary schools. Emphasis are made on theoretical findings about fythohormones with connection to their consequential practical usage for instance in agriculture. The thesis is divided into two parts. Firs part is theoretical. In separate chapters there are in detail explained groups of fythohormones, way to their discovery, characteristics, conditioned by their chemical structure, metabolism in plants and consequentially their physiological effects. Precisely the findings about mentioned characteristics can bring us to the understanding of importance and hidden potential of fythohormones. Second part is targeted to the implementation of fythohormones problems to practical education with consideration of curriculums at secondary schools and high schools. Because our contemporary students are the people who will be effecting evolution of our environment, it is really important to arrange enough information about botanical hormones problems and simultaneously to be able to get these information to them in understandable way. Student, also pupils at secondary schools do not get in...

Conception of the nature and endangered species preservation in the Czech Republic at primary and secondary schools
Pokorná, Lucie ; Teodoridis, Vasilis (advisor) ; Hanel, Lubomír (referee)
The aim of the presented MSc thesis determines a conception of the nature and endangered species preservation in the area of the Czech Republic. This conception is as an integral part of human life and it creates the environmental education level in present society survey, particularly in 9th grade of primary schools and 3rd grade of secondary schools. It is arranged as a systematic manual containing extending information for teachers of primary and secondary schools. The theoretical part of the thesis is focused on general and daily used topics in school textbooks, social life and media e.g. historic, geographic and legislation questions. This part has dealt with a classification of preserved areas in the Czech republic including detailed description of mammal species mentioned in school biological textbooks and also have occurred in those areas. The main aim of next empirical thesis part is mapping of the knowledge level in the reference classes at primary and secondary schools by a special questionnaire applied before and after a thematic project lecture. The comparison of these both results derived from the references classis shows obvious improvements in studied topics after project lectures applying. The results imply the necessity to create more space for the nature and endangered species...

Mineral springs of the Karlovy Vary region
Nikolovová, Soňa ; Teodoridis, Vasilis (advisor) ; Sakala, Jakub (referee)
The submitted Thesis is a summary of all the available information on Carlsbad mineral springs. The thesis is divided into three main parts. The first part, considers the general geological proportions of western Bohemia, thoroughly examines the regional geology and describes the formation of the landscape from a statigraphic perspective since the Proterozoic Era. Furthermore it considers the origin and composition of the mineral springs, which form the subsoil in Carlsbad, i.e. Thermal springs plate. The second part solely describes the individual springs as they are. It resolves around their composition, history, locality, temperature and discharge. The last part is dedicated to the historical and present treatment methods, which are practiced in Carlsbad, through the healing effects of the springs on the human organism and their ability to influence individual organs. The goal of this Thesis was to compile the available information and point to the fact that the mineral springs of Carlsbad can be beneficial for a human in many ways.
