Effect of volcanic ash to Air Transport
Soukop, Robin ; Šplíchal, Miroslav (referee) ; Chlebek, Jiří (advisor)
This master's thesis deals with the issue of volcanic ash as a complex and its impact on aviation, including the volcanic activity itself (conditions for its existence, for existence of eruptions and their basic products). In addition, the thesis also deals with effect of volcanic ash on aircraft and airports, possibilities of its detection or monitoring as well as mechanism of its spreading in airspace. The emphasis is laid mainly on air incidents related to volcanic ash and on danger it poses to the airspace of the Czech Republic.
The GIUK's gap Geopolitical Importance
Prášil, Matěj ; Riegl, Martin (advisor)
The following thesis is focusing on the geopolitical as well as geostrategic significance of the GIUK Gap. In addition to an overview of the realist theories of international relations used in the analysis as such, the thesis includes a section devoted to the historical development of the geopolitical and geostrategic significance of the GIUK Gap, but above all an analysis of the current geopolitical and geostrategic significance of the once mentioned specific North Atlantic region. The analysis of the current geopolitical situation is written with an emphasis on the increasing importance of the area for NATO and the Russian Federation, whose interests have increasingly clashed in recent years, not only in this region. The aim of the paper is to demonstrate a causal relationship between the generally deteriorating relations between NATO and the Russian Federation following the annexation of Crimea in 2014 and the growing importance of the GIUK Gap.

Atlantic thermohaline circulation, its possible future changes, and influence on European climate
Krejčová, Zuzana ; Huth, Radan (advisor) ; Šobr, Miroslav (referee)
Atlantic thermohaline circulation, its possible future changes, and influence on European climate This thesis deals with the changes in thermohaline circulation and is mainly focused on the Atlantic meridional circulation. The thesis also explains some basic concepts that relate to the thermohaline circulation. At first the text addresses its effect on the climate in Europe, how climate changes when occurs a change in the Atlantic meridional circulation. The thesis describes the development of the thermohaline circulation in the past, especially approximately 12,000 years ago. It is trying to explain the sudden climate change in response to changes in thermohaline circulation and it is also trying predict the future evolution of the Atlantic meridional circulation. Finally, there are several possible scenarios for the future. The goal of the practical part was to see how and if the average daily maximum and minimum temperatures are dependent on longitude. On the basis of this dependence may indirectly determine the effect of the thermohaline circulation on the climate. Keywords: thermohaline circulation, climatic change, Atlantic meridional overturning circulation
