Relationship between thermo-oxidative stability and soil quality indicators
Svatoň, Karel ; Doležalová Weissmannová, Helena (referee) ; Kučerík, Jiří (advisor)
This diploma thesis focuses on the use of thermogravimetry as quick and low-cost method in the analysis of soil quality. Most of the currently used methods for analyzing some soil properties are, unlike thermogravimetry, demanding especially for pretreatment and analysis time. Previous research has shown an interesting correlation between thermogravimetry data and some soil properties, but to obtain these correlations, it is necessary to keep the analyzed soils at 76% relative humidity. The aim of this work was to determine whether similar correlations can also by achieved at lower relative humidities. Therefore, soil samples in this work were thermogravimetrically analyzed at 43% relative humidity. That humidity is closer to laboratory conditions and it is also easier to be reached by most of commercially available thermogravimeters. Next aim of this thesis was to find whether thermogravimetric data correlate with other soil properties, especially microbiological indicators of soil quality. Results showed that thermogravimetry of soil samples correlates with standard methods even at 43% humidity. Furthermore, it was found that they also correlate with selected microbiological parameters, such as anaerobic ammonification or urease activity. These results suggest the possibility of using thermogravimetry analysis at broader spectrum of soil properties, without the need for pretreatment of samples and at different (relevant) soil moisture.

Problematika stárnoucí populace v ČR z pohledu regionů
Svatoň, Karel ; Kazdová, Jitka (advisor) ; Svoboda, Libor (referee)
Práce charakterizuje vliv stárnutí populace na systémy zajišťování zdravotnických a sociálních služeb v České republice a jejích regionech. Soustředí se především na odhad budoucího vývoje faktorů ovlivňujících poptávku po nich. Mezi tyto činitele se zde řadí zdravotní stav, zdravá délka života a podíl potenciálně nesoběstačných osob. Vše je rovněž porovnáno s vývojem v Evropské unii i ostatním světě.
