Factors affecting the course of primary succession in queries
Kuťáková, Eliška ; Münzbergová, Zuzana (advisor) ; Püschel, David (referee)
Abandoned quarries represent very important habitats for ecology and conservational biology: they have a potential to become refuges of species diversity in present landscape, strongly disturbed by humans. Natural value of these localities increases in case the localities are left for natural development and spontaneous succession, or if they are managed with the aim to obtain a natural community. To be able to do such a management is necessary to understand the mechanisms of succession as much as possible. In the theoretical part of my thesis I deal with factors, which can affect the course of succession in different ways, especially with climate, soil conditions, seed dispersal and interactions among plants and between plants and animals. This thesis is a theoretical basis for a research in quarry Čeřinka in the Czech Karst Protected Landscape Area. Dispersal abilities of species from the surrounding communities, changes in abiotic conditions at the localities and changes in species composition will be studied. The results of these studies should contribute to our understandings of primary succession in abandoned quarries and I am going to deal with them in my future diploma thesis.

Factors affecting succession in abandoned mines
Valoušková, Martina ; Münzbergová, Zuzana (advisor) ; Püschel, David (referee)
Extraction of limestone in protected landscape areas is a huge phenomenon and problem at the moment. Need of its quantity and quality constantly rise. The pressure to expand mining areas, which are located on places with considerable landscape and culture wealth, is rising as well. Returning of damaged territories back to natural cycle from which they have been forcibly extracted is even a bigger problem. The great unknown is whether it is better to proceed by means of reclamation or let the territory to its own evolution - spontaneous succession. In my thesis I am going to deal with the problems of spontaneous succession and factors affecting it. It is important to find out how plants can spread to left and open areas after mining, where they are going to be the first inhabitants. The fieldwork take place Cerinka quarry in Czech Karst. The aim of the study is to collect informations how plants can spread from maternal habitats and try to find out if there are any hurdles, which could hinder plants in the expansion. By doing this it should be possible to identify why how to support spreading of the target species to the site. The research is based on regular collection of phytosociological relevés at the site. Key words: spontaneous succession, quarries, Czech karst, mining, reclamation, factors

Potential of rural tourism as a development factor for Berounsko and Křivoklátsko
BROŽENSKÁ, Lucie
This diploma thesis evaluate tourism in Karlštejnsko and Křivoklátsko regions. These questions were firstly evaluated from sight of quantity which shown offer range of touristic activities and activities in selected regions. The points of the next research are estimations of government, promoter subjects and information centres in question of importance of case country-side tourist traffic and level of its support from public domain.
