Are former common pastures a significant part of protected areas?
Kosová, Barbora ; Křenová, Zdeňka (advisor) ; Härtel, Handrij (referee)
Former common pastures show a higher biological value than the surrounding landscape and they usually represent areas of conservation value. The aim of this thesis is to find out whether the state nature protection of the Czech Republic reflects this fact. For this purpose, 210 small protected areas in six districts in three regions, namely Cheb and Sokolov districts in Karlovy Vary region, Česká Lípa and Jablonec nad Nisou districts in Liberec region, and Kroměříž and Zlín disctricts in Zlín region were analyzed. The former common pastures were located within the boundaries of the small protected areas according to the historical maps of Stable Cadastre from the first half of the 19th century. To determine biotope diversity of analyzed areas the Natura 2000 biotope mapping was used. Data from the species database were used to compare species diversity of the studied protected areas. In conclusion, the former common pastures were located in 30 out of 210 small protected areas and on average covered 3,6 % of the protected area. Above average values were found in the districts of Zlín region. Higher biotope diversity of the former common pastures was confirmed, as well as higher biotope diversity of protected areas, in which former common pastures were located. The differences in the species...

Ohrožené druhy rostlin v národních parcích ČR: srovnání z pohledu chráněných fenoménů a managementových přístupů
Rejzková, Tereza ; Härtel, Handrij (advisor) ; Reif, Jiří (referee)
Bachelor thesis aims to contribute to currently on-going conservation debate on the role of the national parks (not only in the Czech Republic): to what extent should the national parks protect natural processes and to what extent the species / habitat diversity (e.g. Härtel 2009a, 2009b). The conservation background is represented by the management categories of the International Union for Conservation of Nature (IUCN) (Dudley 2008). General conservation dilemma between the concept of wilderness and protection of diversity by active management is currently stressed mainly by entomologists. This work aims to contribute to this topic based on data on endangered plant species (Grulich 2012) (including protected ones) in four national parks in the Czech Republic. Endangered species represent together with protection of the processes and diversity of inanimate nature (geodiversity) one of the conservation subjects of the national parks. The number of endangered species in the national parks as well as the species composition of this group illustrates the significant biogeographical differences between the Czech national parks as well as very different natural phenomena protected by the parks. Comparison of threatened species in the Czech national parks and habitat requirements of these species will,...

Application of floristic mapping results in the Elbe Sandstones 1991-2007
Bauer, P. ; Härtel, Handrij ; Riebe, H.
Floristic mapping of the Elbe Sandstones Protected Landscape Area (since 2000 including the Bohemian Switzerland National Park) proceeds since 1991, simultaneously with a similar project on the German side (in the Saxon Switzerland). The main contribution of this project consists in the methodical, scientific (e.g., new taxa in the territory of the Czech Republic) and applied level (e.g., basis for management and forest planning, designation of new protected areas).

Phytogeographic importance of Central European sandstone regions
Härtel, Handrij
The importance of flora of the Central European sandstone landscapes is based not on the species richness (alpha diversity) but on the specific composition of flora. The flora of a sandstone region is characterized by a pronounced island environment resulting in frequent occurrence of relic species and isolated occurrences of many species. As a result of high habitat diversity, an unusual combination of various phytogeographic elements is specific to sandstone landscapes, such as atlantic/continental, boreomontane/thermophilous etc.
