Physiochemical Parameters of Ponds during Hydrological Year
HUMMELOVÁ, Světlana
Physiochemical Parameters of Ponds during Hydrological Year The aim of this Bachelor thesis was to use the obtained data for the assessment of these physiochemical parameters on growth of the carp. The obtained data and their influence on carp grow were compared with literature. The physiochemical parameters had measured on the 29th June, 16th July, 12th August and 4th October on the Dehtář pond. The followed physiochemical parameters were measured: concentration of oxygen (mg-l-1), temperature of water (°C), pH, transparency (m) and chlorophyll concentration (?g-l-1). It was used calibrated measuring device EXO2 and a Secchi disc. The pond was measured in two transects with focus on depth, inflow, outflow and feeding area. For better evaluation of the results it had included the continuous measurements data from Vltava River Authority, particularly the concentration of oxygen, temperature and light regime. The Dehtář pond is used mainly for intense fish-pond management. Fishery Hluboká manages on this pond. Stock of the pond is polyculture. Dominant fish is common carp, next for example grass carp, pike, pikeperch and catfish. The pond is regular fed, limed and fertilized. From those data, it has produced the spatial and temporal visualisation of basic physiochemical parameters in the pond. From the spatial visualisation follows that the quality of inflow water, depth of water, meteorological situation and position of feeding area had a significant influence on physiochemical parameters. From the temporal visualisation follows that the highest differences in our data were during temperature stratification on 29th June 2016. This day range of the pH was from 7.1 to 9.1. During the other days pH was just about 8. On 29th of June 2016 the range of the temperature was quite high. The temperature was from 19.8 °C to 24.8 °C. Oxygen deficits were very often on this pond. Oxygen deficits had big influence on the death of fishes. The concentration of oxygen went down under the limit values (0.5 mg-l-1) for 2 times during the Vltava River Authority measuring. The local places of low concentration of oxygen had located on the depth of 1.5 m for 25 times during the Vltava River Authority measuring. The Vltava River Authority regularly takes measurements on the Dehtář pond. It should be used for better management and for preventing the critical situation, particularly the drop of oxygen, which could harm the fish. It should be limited feeding, because of the often oxygen deficits.

The issue of water quality of bathing areas in Vltava basin and their impact on recreation
BRŮŽKOVÁ, Radka
The diploma thesis deals with the issue of water quality in bathing areas on the Vltava River. I concretely concentrated on the quality of water on dams Lipno, Orlík and Slapy. There were two aims. The first of them was observing of selected physical-chemical and microbiological indicators and algae in bathing waters of dams Lipno, Orlík, Slapy situated on the Vltava River between years 2006 and 2016. The second aim was observing of changes in water quality in the Vltava River and dams Lipno, Orlík, Slapy in the direction as river flows in the period of ten years. The thesis is divided into the theoretical and the practical part. The issue of water quality for bathing, indicators for its evaluation and the description of chosen dams on the Vltava River are written in the theoretical part. The practical part was realized by the method of the secondary analysis of data. The analysed data were gained from The National Health Institute with the permission of The Ministry of Health. The next data were given by The State Enterprise, Povodí Vltavy. The time period for the analysis was from years 2006 to 2016. Data gained were described in charts and graphs by the usage of computer programme Microsoft Excel. The part of this thesis was also the outdoor research. The gained results could be used as the source of information not only for general public but also for towns, villages or keepers of recreation facilities situated in this area. On the bases of discovered facts, data, documents, materials, outdoor research and their evaluation there will be given the complete view on the water quality in the dams intended for recreation with prediction about the future progress.

Use of autotrophic algae to production of biomass and some metabolites
Chrástová, Nikola ; Kostovová, Iveta (referee) ; Márová, Ivana (advisor)
Chlorophyll and carotenoids are natural pigments and antioxidants. These pigments are suitable for use in the pharmaceutical, cosmetics or food industries. Lipids are another major metabolite of algae and are a potential feedstock for biofuel production. This bachelor thesis deals with the cultivation of selected genera of autotrophic algae, subsequent isolation of these selected metabolites and their application. The theoretical part focuses on the description of the algae, the metabolites produced, the cultivation and the chosen methods. The experimental part deals with the optimization of the cultivation of algae of the genera Chlorella, Chlamydomonas and Desmodesmus, depending on the chosen medium and intensity of illumination, determination and quantification of algal biomass. Further, extraction of lipidic and carotenoid substances and determination by HPLC and GC was performed. In the overall comparison, the best producer of biomass is the algal genus Desmodesmus and the highest production of pigments and lipid substances was reached in algae of the genus Chlamydomonas.

Determination of Chlorophyll Content in Birch and Pine Trees Using Hyperspectral Data
Zachová, Kateřina ; Potůčková, Markéta (advisor) ; Brodský, Lukáš (referee)
The master thesis deals with the determination of the chlorophyll content in birch foliage (Betula pendula Roth) and Scots pine using hyperspectral data. The first part of the thesis concentrates on the literature search dealing with the methods of chlorophyll content in the foliage of selected plant species. In the practical part the emphasis is on the study of spectral reflectance curves and finding their relation to the chlorophyll content from the laboratory determination. Images taken with the hyperspectral sensor HyMap and spectral reflectance curves obtained with the ground ASD FieldSpec 3 spectrometer were available. Using the derived regression model chlorophyll maps were created for Scots pine for three selected locations in the Sokolov coal basin area.

Inter- and intraspecific variability in Vicia faba L. and Zea mays L. response to water deficit
Fridrichová, Lenka ; Holá, Dana (advisor) ; Zelenková, Sylva (referee)
This work monitors the response of plants to water deficit and subsequent restoration of water availability with the aim to expand our knowledge about plant behaviour during and after drought stress from the perspective of two plant species with a different type of photosynthesis. A particular attention was paid to the intraspecific differences and their possible changes during stress and post-stress periods. The plant response was monitored as the changes of selected photosynthetic, morphological and developmental characteristics caused by the cessation of watering for six days followed by a six-day period of renewed optimal water supply. The experiments were carried out on plants with different types of photosynthesis - C3 plant Vicia faba L and C4 plant Zea mays L.; for both plant species, three varieties / genotypes were monitored. The response of both plant species to insufficient water supply differed by the extent of changes in relative water content (RWC), chlorophyll fluorescence parameters, the dry mass of individual leaves (developed during the stress period), the ratio between the aboveground dry mass and dry mass of roots. In drought-stressed plants, downward trend in RWC was observed, as well as the increase of the minimum yield of chlorophyll fluorescence in dark-adapted leaves (F ),...
