Verification of the "Čirá - Kopanina" fault existence using morphostructural analysis and geophysical surveying
Findžová, Leona ; Tábořík, Petr (advisor) ; Kašing, Martin (referee)
This thesis focuses on the verification of the Čirá-Kopanina fault existence using morphostructural analysis and geophysical surveying. The verification of the fault zone was based on the analyses of the digital relief model, river network parameters and selected relief features that indicate tectonic activity with a high probability. Based on these analyses, the fault was identified and subsequently verified using geophysical methods. The searched tectonic line passes through the village of Čirá in the Jindřichovice upland district (Krušné hory Mts), continues east of the village of Kopanina and heads south into the Cheb Basin along the Libocký Brook. The direction of the Čirá-Kopanina fault was determined as approximately north-south (348ř - 168ř) and thus corresponds to the north-south orientation of the hypocentres of the West Bohemian earthquake swarms. The Čirá-Kopanina fault zone could thus be a potential source area for the earthquake swarms at the boundary of the Cheb Basin and the Krušné hory Mts. crystalline complex. However, its activity needs to be verified by a further research. Keywords fault, tectonics, digital elevation model, morphostructural analysis, geophysical surveying, Jindřichovice uplands, Krušné hory Mountains

Laboratory/Field Spectroscopy and Remote Sensing Image Data for Vegetation Studies
Červená, Lucie ; Kupková, Lucie (advisor) ; Pavelka, Karel (referee) ; Müllerová, Jana (referee)
Dominant vegetation species of two structurally and functionally different montane ecosystems were studied by means of laboratory and field spectroscopy and remote sensing image data: (1) a homogeneous human-influenced evergreen coniferous forest represented by a Norway spruce forest in the Krušné hory Mountains and (2) a heterogeneous natural ecosystem of a relict arctic-alpine tundra in the Krkonoše Mountains with predominance of grasses. The first part dealing with the Norway spruce forest is especially focused on the methods of laboratory spectroscopy. The assessment of Norway spruce stands on a regional and a global scales requires detailed knowledge of their spectral properties at the level of needles and shoots in the beginning, but ground research is very time-demanding. Open spectral libraries could help to get more ground-truth data for subsequent analysis of tree species in forests ecosystems. However, the problem may arise with the comparability of spectra taken by different devices. The present thesis focuses on a comparability of spectra measured by a field spectroradiometer coupled with plant contact probe and/or two integrating spheres (Paper 3) and proves the significant differences in spruce needle spectra measured by the contact probe and integrating sphere, spectra of...

Effect of selected physical-geographical factors on the snow accumulation and snow melt
Pevná, Hana ; Jeníček, Michal (advisor) ; Langhammer, Jakub (referee)
Effect of selected physical-geographical factors on the snow accumulation and snow melt Abstract: This master thesis analyzes the influence of physical-geographical factors on spatial distribution of snow water equivalent, and its evolution. In this work, emphasis is placed on describing the influence of vegetation, aspect and altitude. Measurement was carried out in experimental catchments Zlatý Brook and Bystřice River in western part of the Ore Mountains in winters 2008/2009, 2009/2010, 2010/2011 and 2011/2012. To evaluate the influence of these factors on value of snow water equivalent there was used one of the methods of multivariate statistical analysis - cluster analysis. The research shows that the greatest influence on the distribution and evolution of snow water equivalent in the experimental basins has vegetation and some dependency was proved also between the points of southern exposure. The measurement results demonstrate the suitability of cluster analysis for analyzing the data of point values of snow water equivalent. On the other hand the results showed the main limits of this method, especially the need for a large number of points with different characteristics. The results of measurements and statistical analysis are compared with results published in technical literature. Keywords: snow...

Relationship of inhabitants to their home place in Eastern and Western Ore Mountains (Krušné hory)
Tichá, Kateřina ; Mikšíček, Petr (advisor) ; Braun Kohlová, Markéta (referee)
Diplomová práce Vztah obyvatel k místu 5 Abstract This thesis entitled "Relationship of inhabitants to their home place in Eastern and Western Ore Mountains (Krušné hory)" focuses on the issue of a relationship the current inhabitants have to the area they live in. This relationship is defined on the basis of several distinct theoretical areas. The first portion of the thesis covers the basic terminology key for understanding the relationship of inhabitants to their home place. It deals with the definition of the term "home place", its character and ways in which it may be perceived. It also contemplates the term "settlement" and focuses on "identity" which is further defined as biographical and regional identity. Identity may be studied in the context of a relationship to the countryside, local community and historical awareness. The paper also characterises the Sudetenland region and provides the historical context necessary for a comprehensive outlook at the area researched without marginalizing the issue of nationalism. The practical portion employs qualitative methodology to process eighteen semi-structured interviews with representatives of elites (mayors, businessmen and members of associations) of the selected are of the Eastern and Western Ore Mountains. Subsequent analyses point to identical and...

Effect of vegetation on snow accumulation and snow melt
Pevná, Hana ; Jeníček, Michal (advisor) ; Kocum, Jan (referee)
Effect of vegetation on snow accumulation and snow melt Abstract: This bachelor thesis analyzes the impact of physical-geographic factors on the physical properties and characteristics of the development of snow cover. Results published in the literature are compared with those obtained from experimental measurements in the upper Byst ice River basin in the Ore Mountains during the winter 2009/2010. The paper compares the evolution of snow cover for the actual land cover, forest and open areas. The research of literature and research conducted in the Ore Mountains proved that vegetation significantly affects accumulation and melting of the snow. The process of accumulation in the forest is influenced by snowfall interception in the treetops. Melting snow in a forest area slowed absorption and reflection of sunlight in the treetops. The bachelor thesis demonstrates that in the open areas the snow melted faster than in the forest growth. Keywords: snow cover, snow water equivalent, vegetation, Ore Mountains

Moderní prášková hnojiva s růstovými stimulátory a jejich využití při zalesňování v Krušných horách
Slivková, Tereza
This diploma thesis deals with the use of modern powder fertilizers with growth stimulators, which were used for afforestation of hollow Norway spruce (Picea abies / L./Karst.) after bulldozer soil preparation in the Ore Mountains at LS Klášterec nad Ohří. On these scarified areas of the 7th forest vegetation stage two research areas of Bojiště and Kiosek were established. The battlefield area Bojiště was divided into 6 plots, one of which served only as a check. On these parcels were distinguished Norway spruce (Picea abies / L./Karst.) specimens from growing trees (A) and seedlings (B). Norway spruce seedlings were fertilized with fertilizers series Silvamix® (Sivamix® SR50 + S2, Silvamix® SR30 + S2 and Agluform 90S + S2) and organomineral fertilizers Vermaktiv Stimul and Fungil. Samples of the last year of needles were taken once per year, as well as samples of the soil environment. Support of nutrients were extended and growth spruce cultivation especially by using fertiliziers series Silvamix®. Individual fertilizers were contributed to the promotion of the different nutrients, of course in relation to the composition of fertilizers. Further these fertilizers contributed to improving the vitality of individuals Norway spruce (Picea abies / L./Karst.). The area of the Kiosek was treated with the new fertilizer UNICON. On this area carried two years of research for the sampling of soil samples and the last year needles of Norway spruce (Picea abies / L./Karst.). Against a control variant UNICON has demonstrated the benefits of optimizing the soil enviroment of sprececulture. The overall effect of this fertilizer contributed growth of individuals on the surface and the overall balancing takings nutrients.
