Impact of water quality and physical habitat degradation upon fish biodiversity in small streams of the Czech Republic
Adámek, Z. ; Jurajda, Pavel
The data obtained during the surveys of fish assemblages in Czech streams of the Danube and Elbe river basins were evaluated with respect to the relation between fish biodiversity and level of water (organic pollution) and/or physical habitat quality (longitudinal heterogeneity, substrate, riparian vegetation, canalisation). Fish asseblages showed the highest biodiversity in betamezosaprobity in both lowland and highland streams. Their response were more pronounced regarding water quality rather than physical habitat deterioration, i.e. fish biodiversity declined with decreasing water quality more considerably than with physical habitat degradation.

Krajina jako základ životního prostředí malých měst
Kirchner, Karel ; Lacina, Jan
Contribution deals with specific features of the nature environment of the small towns. Nature environment influenced development of economic activities in the during of evolution of the small towns. In the present, nature environment and its components are influencing the environment of the small towns. This relations are pointed on examples of the small towns: Dubňany and Tišnov.

Metodické aspekty studia biodiverzity v půdě
Šimek, Miloslav ; Krištůfek, Václav
Soil has many ecological and human-linked functions which can be fulfilled mostly due to the presence of countless living creatures - soil biota. Diversity of soil organisms is often linked to other important soil attributes, e.g. fertility, productivity, resilience, quality and health, as well as soil degradation. In this paper, concept of soil biodiversity is analysed and traditional and current methodological approaches in studying soil biodiversity are listed and briefly discussed
