Homelessness – Res Communes (Local Housing Policy Anticipation)
Dobrovičová, Iveta ; Kučerová, Eva (advisor) ; Kateřina, Kateřina (referee)
Summary
The thesis is dedicated to solving the problem of homelessness, from the vantage point of synergy of social policy tools, mainly the housing policy. The author s aim has been to find out what methods are adopted to prevent and solve homelessness in Prague, whether the steps taken by the state or other subjects active in the capital provide help to the group of the socially excluded individuals in the process of their reintegration into the society of people with homes.
The theoretical part deals with the crisis of the welfare state concept, based on solidarity of the wealthier classes with the socially deprived groups. After examining expert sources, the accent is put on definition of social policy participants on the part of the state and other subjects that are instrumental in integration of persons temporarily or permanently excluded from the consumption of the fundamental social value,housing. Last but not least, this work defines the phenomenon of homelessness in its key aspects: in the history of its emergence and causes, its perception by the public, typology of homeless persons, and in the problem with a qualified estimate of the number of the affected.
The practical part is dedicated to a closer examination of the social exclusion of inhabitants in the interaction with the responsible persons from the ranks of social workers, curators, housing authority clerks, providing expert help to the socially deprived groups among Prague inhabitants. This research, done in the form of interviews, is completed by a questionnaire survey carried out directly with the people concerned the homeless. The contribution of this work consists in this combination of both perspectives, the basis of which is knowledge of the homeless environment, acquired via the author s voluntary work for a lowthreshold treatment program center Naděje in Prague.

Dog Lyme Disease
Grittnerová, Erika ; Kubík, Štěpán (advisor) ; Vynikalová, Lucie (referee)
Lyme borreliosis is a multi-organ disease caused by spirochetes of the Borrelia burgdorferi sensu lato group. These bacterias are transmitted by ticks of genus Ixodes, in the Czech Republic by Ixodes ricinus. The main reservoirs including the ticks are rodents, insectivores and deers. Lyme disease is the most diagnosed infection transmitted by ticks in the temperate zone of the northern hemisphere. It is supposed that due to climate change in recent years it will appear more often. In the Czech Republic it is reported 3500 to 4000 cases per year in recent years. The greatest risk of infection is in deciduous and mixed forests, dense and tall vegetation and at locations along watercourses. Borrelia gets into the host body with a saliva of the tick and spreads through blood or lymph to target organs such as the nervous system, joints, myocardium, skeletal muscles, eyes and skin. In dogs the lyme disease manifests usually asymptomatically or by non-specific symptoms that can simulate a variety of other diseases. The most common clinical signs are lameness, fever, joint and muscle pains, lethargy, loss of appetite and swollen lymph nodes. Diagnosis of the lyme borreliosis is relatively complicated and it is based on an assessment of clinical signs, epidemiological history and laboratory tests. For detection of borrelia in the organism it is used direct or indirect methods. The most commonly used direct method is a polymerase chain reaction (PCR) that examines the presence of borrelia DNA in a sample. Indirect methods examine the presence of specific antibodies in a blood serum. Combination of ELISA test and Western blot seems to be the most reliable of them. Treatment consist in antibiotic therapy for several weeks. The basis of prevention is early removal of tick and measures to prevent its bite. These measures consist in using various acaricidal preparations. Currently for dogs it is available vaccine that however is not included in the basic vaccination schema.

Postglacial colonization of black alder (Alnus glutinosa) and grey alder (Alnus incana) in Europe
Havrdová, Alena ; Mandák, Bohumil (advisor) ; Helena, Helena (referee)
Current species distribution in Europe was mainly influenced by massive climatic and environmental changes during the Quaternary period. Different theories concerning survival of tree species during the last ice age in Europe were proposed and up to date the position of glacial refugia and directions of migration routes are under active debate. My dissertation thesis aimed to combine information from fossil records and genetic analysis to improve knowledge on postglacial history of Alnus glutinosa and Alnus incana. The synthesis of palaeoecological data supports the idea that not only southern but also northern populations were important sources of postglacial Alnus expansion. The delayed Alnus expansion apparent in some regions was likely a result of environmental limitations. Our findings from molecular study showed differences in postglacial histories between temperate A. glutinosa and boreal A. incana. In the case of A. incana, we found an effective refugium in Central Europe located outside classical southern refugia confirming the existence of northern refugia for boreal trees in Europe. Fennoscandian populations are derived from Central-European ones that originated from populations in the Alps. For A. glutinosa, multiple southern refugia were revealed and three main directions of postglacial expansion were proposed: 1) from the northern part of the Iberian Peninsula to Western and Central Europe and subsequently to the British Isles, 2) from the Apennine Peninsula to the Alps, and 3) from the eastern part of the Balkan Peninsula to the Carpathians followed by expansion towards the Northern European plains. It has been shown that colonizing lineages have met several times and formed secondary contact zones with unexpectedly high population genetic diversity in Central Europe and Scandinavia. For the first time, we discovered tetraploid populations of A. glutinosa situated in the putative main glacial refugia on the Iberian and Balkan Peninsulas. Neither of them was probably involved in the colonization of Central and Northern Europe after glacial withdrawal. In conclusion, thanks to extensive population sampling, testing of hypothesis postulated based on fossil data by molecular data and using two molecular markers, i.e. chloroplast DNA and microsatellites, with different mode of inheritance and polymorphisms, this project revealed not only the position of glacial refugia of European tree species and discriminate between effective and non-effective ones, but also help infer the main migration routes. This approach enabled us to change some long-lasting paradigms and brought new pieces of knowledge about postglacial colonization of European tree species.

Strucutre and disturbance regime of the natural spruce mountain forests in the Fagaras Mts. in Romania
Sýkora, Ondřej ; Svoboda, Miroslav (advisor) ; Janda, Pavel (referee)
There is a large natural disturbance in spruce stands at the present moment in many European countries. Therefore understanding of the long-term natural processes and the impact of disturbances on the structure have a key role in the management of spruce forests. For this purpose, we have studied the structure and the historical regime mountains, which is one of the best preserved forest ecosystems in the Europe. Between 2011 and 2013 years we have founded nearly 50 research spots in the four valleys where we collected data on the structure of the forest. For purposes of reconstruction of disturbances history samples from almost 3 500 individuals of Norway spruce (Picea Abies) were taken. Data were analyzed with dendrochronological methods and descriptive statistics. Partial synchronization of disturbances with the valleys and the subsequent rise in the regeneration was detected, which shows the influence of disturbances evoked by wind and then, probably, by the increasing population of bark beetles. We noticed the importance of the disturbances (weak - strong), which directly influences the structure and creates the mosaic diversity of vegetation. The history of the oldest areas goes back for 400 years, and for the youngest - for 100 years. The volume of the deadwood in the valleys was approximately 135 m3. Overall, on the investigated spots 1380 individuals of regeneration with dominating recovery of Norway spruce (Picea Abies) were recorded, with the proportion of 76 %.
Our results show that the disturbances are partially synchronized with the landscape level and also on the level of each valley, and have a major impact on the structure and dynamic of the forest. Natural disturbances are the main factor affecting the natural regeneration of spruce forests.
