Impact of the adjustment of the area of former tank training area on its ecosystem services
PAČKA, Jiří
The ecological value and the value of ecosystem services of the former military area in Čtyři Dvory in České Budějovice was evaluated in this thesis. The expert method of BVM (?Biotope Valuation Method?) and the Replacement Cost method (cost of technological alternative to ecosystem function) according to Seják et al. (2003, 2010) were applied. Four ecosystem services were evaluated: climatic service (evapotranspiration), little water cycle, oxygen production, and the support of biodiversity. For comparison, the sale price of the area and the ?recreation? value calculated by the contingent valuation (CV) method were also evaluated. The estimated sale price was 837 million CZK, which was by twelve-times higher than the ecological value estimated by the BVM method. Most of the area (57 %) was formed by the biotop XK4 ? pioneer shrub vegetation of atropogenic noncultivated areas with 13 points per m2. The most valuable biotop was V2.2 ? periodic waters with 44 points per m2, which formed 1.5 % of the examined area. The estimated value of ecosystem services was 1 372 millions CZK per year. The realization of all the planned construction projects on the examined area would lead to the depression of the ecological value according to the BVM method by 19.5 millions CZK and the depression of the value of the formerly mentioned four ecosystem services by 459 millions CZK.
Farms for fattening pigs in terms of noise emitted into the environment.
PAČKA, Jiří
Protecting the environment is one of the most important tasks of the late twentieth and early twenty-first century. Noise is in addition to much more tangible pollution of air and water also one of the environmental hazard. Usage of mechanization at the pig breeding causes noise pollution so the main task of this bachelor thesis was to measure the spread of noise from the near stalls . Measure values and compare them with the prevailing regulatory and health standards and than use formulas to determine minimum, maximum and equivalent sound levels. Then these measured values evaluate and determine whether or not it exceed the maximum noise levels. In the case when standards are exceeded, design measures to reduce noise.
