The Analysis of land-use changes in Šumava foothills
KOTEK, Jiří
The Svatý Tomáš Highlands and the Trojmezí Highlands in the Šumava foothills were constantly settled during 13th century. Although this area is a borderland with a less favourable climate, agriculture had a significant influence on the landscape changes. However political and economic changes during the 1950´s, especially the establishment of the Iron Curtain, had impacted previous trends. Displacement of inhabitans, destruction of villages and inaccessibility of the area have restored the natural processes. The aim of this work is to describe changes of land use in The Šumava foothills with regard to nature protection and results evaluated by geographic information system technologies. From stable cadastre maps it was detected, that land use in 1st half of 19th century in the Šumava foothills was very varied, it was there existed a lot of small fields of arable soil. However the surface of arable soil diminished gradually during the time and at the present time don´t exist any more in the study area. In monitored areas in the first place grew the share of forests. The changes of management also had an impact on the size of succession areas. It was found, that changes in land use are very similar in the all monitored regions.

Cultural development and specifics of the border region of the Czech Republic (with a focus on the region of the Sudetenland and culture of Sudeten Germans)
Gajewská, Barbara ; Riedlbauch, Václav (advisor) ; Malcová, Zuzana (referee)
This Bachelor's Thesis focuses on cultural development and specifics of the Sudetenland. The first part of this work describes historical development of this region with a focus on the German population. The work also defines the term of Sudetenland itself and the main areas which the Sudetenland includes. There is a description of the landscape and cultural changes after the World War II and the evacuation of the German population from Bohemia. The second part of the Bachelor's Thesis focuses on the South Bohemian part of the Sudetenland, especially on the border regions Český Krumlov and Prachatice, and analyses the specifics and changes of the local culture and landscape after the World War II until now. At the end it defines the differences between the post-war development of the South Bohemian Sudetenland and other areas of the Sudetenland and it proposes recommendations for further development of this area.

The Historic Landscape Elements Analysis
KOTEK, Jiří
The two most important reasons of partial depopulation of the right shore of the Lipno dam were the transfer of Germans after the World War II and the Iron Curtain establishment in 1950s. Inhabitants were turn out from borderland, local villages were largely destroyed, meadows and pastures have been wasted for decades and they are under secondary succession. Although a lot of villages were destroyed, we can identify it by plants whose occurrence is closely associated with existence of resident enclaves (fruit tree species, nonforest green vegetation, woody ornamentals). The aim of this work is to describe these plants species, locate their position and judge changes in the time.

Function of scattered vegetation in the agricultural land fund
ZÍKOVÁ, Veronika
The theme of my work is a function of scattered vegetation in the agricultural land fund. The aim of my work is a literary review on the subject. Greenery understand linear stands along roads and streams, windbreaks, solitary, hedges, and other memorial trees located in open countryside. During the past 50 years occurred in our agriculture for major changes, which include the loss of their land for countless functions. Greenery is one of the basic features of the Czech landscape and gives it a unique character, and therefore we should strive for its return. Currently, the greenery is an important creative tool that can help to mitigate negative effects and devastation of the cultural landscape.
