Optimal timing of summer vacances with regard to climate
Kothan, Filip ; Sládek, Ivan (advisor) ; Novák, Martin (referee)
The aim of this paper is to suggest a method, how to find a period of summer holidays with the best weather, because this holidays should enable scholars to do sports in nature. It was evaluated on basis of air temperature, sunshine and precipitation. So it was necessary to find holidays with the highest air temperature, maximum of sunshine total and minimum of precipitation total in the year. The provided values of these meteorological elements derive from weather stations of Doksany, Praha Ruzyně and Brno Tuřany. These databases contain fifty - year series of measured values of elements mentioned above for the period 1. 1. 1961 - 31. 12. 2010. At first the holiday periods favourable according to individual meteorological elements were calculated. Then the results of these calculations were used to find the final holiday period, favourable according to more than one element. Specifically the air temperature and sunshine were meant. The required period, suitable according to daily average air temperature and daily total sunshine, begins on 19th June and ends on 19th August. The period, calculated on basis of daily average air temperature and day length, begins on 14th June and ends on 14th August.

Duration of faling precipitations, fog and mist as factor influencing the timing of vacances
Kothan, Filip ; Sládek, Ivan (advisor) ; Lhotka, Ondřej (referee)
The aim of this paper is to determine suitable term of summer holidays. It should be as long as current holidays in Czech republic, it means 62 days. The paper builds on the bachelor's thesis titled "Optimal timing of summer vacances with regard to climate". The convenient term has been evaluated on basis of characteristics of air temperature, duration of sunshine and the length of day there in the bachelor's thesis. This paper contains the analysis of duration of rain, showers, drizzle, fog and mist. Thus, several terms have been found in both papers. But these are suitable with regard to only one meteorological element or phenomenon. The summer holidays should undoubtedly provide days with the best possible values of more meteorological elements. So the final term was calculated as mean and weighted mean of several dates of the beginning of holidays with the highest values of daily average air temperature, length of day and with the shortest total duration of the complex of rain, showers and drizzle and the complex of fog and mist. The weights of individual elements have been determined in two ways, so we have obtained three terms of holidays: two as result of the weighted mean and one as result of the mean. The best periods for holidays, determined by the weighted mean, are 11th June - 11th...
