Eutrophication of water reservoirs
Kukol, Jan ; Bartoníčková, Eva (referee) ; Biela, Renata (advisor)
The first part of this thesis is focused on general explanation of eutrophication, its causes and consequences. The possible solutions of eutrophication are discussed briefly and a few examples of eutrophic reservoirs in the Czech Republic are added. The second part of this thesis is focused on ongoing modifications of water reservoir Brno and finally the effectiveness of measures are being compared.

Eutrofizace povrchových vod
Kunze, David
This bachelor thesis deals with eutrophication of surface waters. People dramatically increase trophic conditions of water ecosystems. Attention is focused on phosphorus as a crucial nutrient for excessive growth of phytoplankton, especially cyanobacteria. Wastewaters are the main source of phosphorus. For this reason, wastewater treatment plants must use the best available techniques to eliminate phosphorus. Phosphorus will be a scarce resource. Author describes the possibilities for recycling of phosphorus. Measures to reduce eutrophication, including completed projects, are also mentioned. Nitrogen sources and the possibility of its removal, are discussed too. Measured concentrations of the basic indicators in representative profiles of river basins show the development of eutrophication in the Czech Republic. Finally, values of these indicators are compared with the limits set by current legislation.

Ecological biomonitoring of peatlands - the NCV index, acidification and eutrophication
Henková Mauleová, Lucie ; Neustupa, Jiří (advisor) ; Šťastný, Jan (referee)
Biomonitoring is a method of ecosystem properties determination based on its biological properties, especially composition of the biota. Based on various aquatic-oriented biomonitoring systems, it is possible to quantify, for example, water purity or trophic index for water management purposes or to characterize the ecological status of the ecosystem for scientific and conservation purposes. While water quality-oriented biomonitoring systems are widespread and routinely used, ecology state-oriented (quantifying qualities like succession stage or stability) are less exploited and their wider use in the future could help understanding and management of some aquatic ecosystems. One of the ecology-oriented biomonitoring systems is NCV index (natural conservation value index) oriented to wetlands which it evaluates through their desmid biota, measuring species diversity, rarity of represented species and ecosystem maturity for which they are typical, and rarity of represented species NCV index aims to describe the value of the ecosystem in terms of its replicability.

Effect of ponds and pond systems on the composition of the benthos in horní Lužnice
SVAČINA, Petr
The work is focused on monitoring changes in benthic communities in the longitudinal gradient of the river Lužnice. The river flows through to the pond area Třeboňsko and the largest pond of the Czech Republic - Rožmberk. It is examine affect of pond on benthic communities. The work involves collecting benthos according to the PERLA method on four profile in four seasons, the analysis of chemical parameters and data processing. The values of SI (saprobiological index) in the longitudinal gradient were from SI 1.8 to SI 2.6. SI values were at the outflow of Rožmberk higher than at inflow. The lowest values were in the first profile Suchdol (SI 1,8 ? SI 2,1) and higher values were in the last profile Vlkov (SI 2,4 ? 2,6). The chemical parameters at outflow were observed increased values of BOD5, TOC, NL105, NL505, chlorophyll and total P but lower values of nitrogen forms (Ntotal,NH4, N-NO3-). On the each profile was the significant change in the incidence or absence of certain groups. Profiles Suchdol and Hlína were diferent than Lužnice and Vlkov especially in the presence of stoneflies, dragonflies, beetles, and individuals generally indicates good water quality. Profiles at outflows from Rožmberk (Lužnice and Vlkov) showed a continued presence of bloodsuckers and more species indicating high organic pollution. NMDS method confirmed impact of sites in communities rather than period (R2 = 0.6 at significance level of p = 0.001).

Influence of land use on runoff phosphorus in the selected area
CIML, Jiří
The work focuses how land use on the selected location affects the amount of phosphorus in the watershed Jenínský potok. Defines the basic concepts of this and related issues. The monitored values are total phosphorus and phosphorus contained in phosphate ions and description of the measuring apparatus. The resulting data are arranged in tables and graphs and resultes are compare with standards CSN and other similar studies.

Spreading of Bryozoa Pectinatella magnifica in Třeboňsko region
LUKEŠOVÁ, Petra
Pectinatella magnifica is a fresh water invertebrate colonial animal originating from North America which spreading, throughout Europe as well as Asia, has recently reached a characteristics of invasion. Charakter of the colonies, their seasonnal dynamics and other development aspects have been studied at six destinations in South Bohemia (lake Cep, Nový Lipnický pond, Hejtman pond, Nový Kanclíř pond, Vlkov sandpit and Hnevkovice water reservoir). Repeated biomass quantitative collections have been carried out in 10 m transects alongside the shoreline. Also the environmental factors have been found out (temperature, conductivity, water reactions, transparency, trophia, colonies substrate) and charakteristics of individual invaded reservoirs. The list of currently known destinations has been completed with another reservoirs into which the species has spread out.
