Some differences in the biology and behavior of the species eastern gorilla (Gorilla beringei) and western gorilla (Gorilla gorilla)
Kotýnková, Nicola ; Kracíková, Olga (advisor) ; Tománek, Pavel (referee)
Genus Gorilla is divided into two species includes four subspecies and one subspecies unrecognized.
Gorillas are the largest living apes and and eight million years ago, as a line, they separated themselves from family Hominidae.
These populations are found in nine African countries and they are separated by forest Congo.
Their most developer sense is vision. The body is adapted for knuckle-walking and their limbs are adapted to grip, with moveable arms and long arms. They have a mighty body with a robust skull and teeth with bumps for processing a hard food.
Gorillas excel significant sexual dimorphism, which is characterized by variously sized body.
Thanks reproduction arises extensive diversity within species in different strategies that help increase fitness. Dominant males mate with sexually mature females, while males with lower status mate with younger females because they are not fertile yet. Compared to that family groups have only one silverback male with which the female mate.
There are substantial differences in eating habits between gorillas. Dietary differences between species and subspecies are caused mainly by food availability. Gorillas are considered for herbivorous and frugivorous animals.
Gorilla groups are polygenic. With one dominant silverback male a few females and their descendants, they form a cohesive group.
They create nest for sleeping every night which different in location and stage of construction.
They communicate with each other through the auditory, visual and chemical signals. They use approximately 102 types of gestures and 17 types of audio signals to communicate.
In wild gorillas using tools is scarce, therefore mainly used to get food from difficult sources most of its body. While gorillas in captivity use tools successfully.
To protect against predators, the female consort with males who protect them.

Effective use of finances active and passive employment policies in the ČR
Štáfek, Pavel ; Hes, Aleš (advisor) ; Macák, Tomáš (referee)
The dissertation deals with the issue of the effectiveness of employment policy instruments. The literature search is characterized not only the position of the Ministry of Labour and Social Affairs and Labor Office in the Czech Republic. It is also characterized by employment policy and its instruments in the Czech Republic and in selected European Union countries, then describes the various tools of active and passive employment policy. In fulfilling the main goal of this work was necessary to provide easily measurable units, which is expressed efficiency of individual employment policy instruments. These measurable units are then applied in their own work and on the basis of the calculations is determined by the efficiency of individual employment policy instruments. Then proposes measures that will lead to increased efficiency in the implementation of employment policy instruments in practice.

Application of mathematical models for simulation of hydrological conditions in selected streams
Kurková, Marie ; Vašků, Zdeněk (advisor) ; Michal, Michal (referee)
Flood is a natural phenomenon that occurs at different intensities and irregular time intervals. As to natural disasters, floods represent the greatest direct threat for the Czech Republic. They may cause serious critical situations during which not only extensive material damages are done, but may bring also losses of the lives of inhabitants in affected areas as well as vast devastation of cultural landscape including environmental damages. Important from the viewpoint of the elimination of potential threats and consequences of such events is the information issued by flood forecasting service about the character and size of flood areas for individual N-year flood discharges and specific flood scenarios. An adequate image of depths and flow rates in the longitudinal or cross profile of the watercourse during a flood event is provided by the hydrodynamic model. This is why the information obtained from the hydrodynamic models occupies a privileged position from the viewpoint of the protection of citizens' lives and mitigation of damage to their property. The first study is situated on the river Úhlava in meadows by Příchovice near the town Přeštice. The proposal of flood-protection measures is contained in Territorial control documentation. The documentation was elaborated on the basis of hydraulic calculations and experiences from the flood in August 2002. The mathematical model is practically used in the study of analysis of proposed flood-protection measures. The analysis is based on mathematical simulation of water outflow and water level on the river Úhlava. It is possible to use the non-commercial software Hec-Ras, version 3.1.1., for the simulation itself. One of the points of view of the possibility of using proposed flood-protection measures is total efficiency. The mathematical model is posssible to use as a basis of support for realization of proposed flood-protection measures on the river Úhlava in meadows by Příchovice within the grant programme "Program prevence před povodněmi II" under the control of the Ministry of Agriculture. In the second case the mathematical model is practically used in the study of hydrotechnical analysis of streams in cadastral unit. The analysis is based on matjematical simulation of water outflow and water level on chosen streams. It is possible to use the noncomercial software HEC-RAS for the own simulation. The analysis should be shown on dangerous places in the interest place. The mathematical model is possible of using to use as basis for revaluation of action in spatial plan or for view of the flood-protection measures in the village Mochtín. Basic input into the hydrodynamic models is represented by altimetry data. One of ways to obtain such data is through the method of aerial laser scanning (ALS) from the digital relief model (DRM). This method is considered one of the most accurate methods for obtaining altimetry data. Its bottleneck is however incapacity of recording terrain geometry under water surface due to the fact that laser beam is absorbed by water mass. The absence of geometric data on watercourse discharge area may perceptibly affect results of modelling, especially if a missing part of the channel represents a significant discharge area with its capacity. One of methods for eliminating the deficiency is a sufficient channel recess by means of software tools such as CroSolver. The third submitted paper deals with the construction of a hydrodynamic model using 5th generation DRM data, and compares outputs from this model at various discharges with a model based on the altimetry data modified by using the CroSolver tool. Outputs from the two hydrodynamic models are compared in HEC-RAS programme with the use of recessed data and with the use of unmodified DRM. The comparison is done on the sections of two watercourses with different terrain morphology and watercourse size. A complementary output is the comparison of inundation areas issuing from both model variants. Our results indicate that differences in the outputs are significant namely in the lower discharges (Q1, Q5) whereas for Q50 and Q100 the difference is negligible with a great role being played by morphology of the modelled area and by the watercourse size.

Computerization of public procurement in the Czech Republic
Komárková, Tereza ; Žáková Kroupová, Zdeňka (advisor) ; Slaboch, Josef (referee)
This bachelor thesis is aimed to picture and compare the costs of an average tender for public procurement done by classical paperwork and by electronic ways. The thesis is aiming for users of electronic tools and other electronic processes connected with assigning the tenders.
In the first part the process of assigning the tenders is pictured along with the description of every single electronic tools and processes. In the second part are quantified the costs of these tools and processes.
Data was gathered by questionnaire. 10 respondents were contacted as contracting authority and 4 as administrators. Subsidy authorities were also questioned. Last but not least was used market research to show the incremental costs.
According to the gathered data, public procurement using electronic means bring lower costs for administrating officers might appear though. On the other hand the jobs of these officers are significantly simplified by use of these electronic means. Great money savees can be made by higher transparency of the electronic way. With the higher transparency the concracting authority can avoid possible objection and proceedings before The office for the protection of market competition (from sanctions thus granded this authority).
