Opička, Tomáš ; Vágner, Jiří (advisor) ; Semian, Michal (referee)
This thesis deals with tourism and impacts of tourism on the geographic environment. The main purpose is detection of impacts of tourism character, their concentration and intensity in protected area. In this research, author chose the region of the Křivoklatsko protected landscape area. Other aspect this thesis is detection of attandance evolution in confrontation with the proposed Křivoklátsko national park. Key words: tourism, impacts of tourism, the Křivoklátsko protected landscape area, landscape protection

Modelling of surface water pollution in Krivoklatsko protected area using GIS
Šereš, Michal ; Matějíček, Luboš (advisor) ; Benešová, Libuše (referee)
Environmental modelling is lately becoming to be one of the most important decision support systems. Hydrological models present significant potential for use especially in area of surface and groundwater protection. In the diploma thesis, the Soil and Water Assessment Tool (SWAT) was used to evaluate nitrate surface water pollution in nine catchments situated in Křivoklátsko protected area during the period of 2003 - 2010. Modelling process consist of assorted consequent steps. First the hydrological model of each catchment was created. Afterwards the sensitivity analysis was conducted to select most sensitive model parameters. Calibration process was carried out after the parameters selection using SWAT-CUP automatic calibration tool. Model results were visualized and evaluated. The results of the model suggested, that the area of interest was not widely endangered by nitrate pollution. Within each catchment the critical source areas of nitrate pollution were identified. It was observed that these areas are related with intensive agricultural areas. Nitrate leaching ranged from 6 kg.ha-1 to 10 kg.ha-1 per year in agriculture areas. Some areas exceed this amount. Nitrate loss from most of the area of interest ranged from 0 kg.ha-1 to 4 kg.ha-1 per year. Concentrations of nitrates in modeled...

Physical-geographic aspects of alien plant species distribution in the Křivoklátsko Protected Landscape Area
Nováková, Zuzana ; Chuman, Tomáš (advisor) ; Matějček, Tomáš (referee)
Plant invasions are becoming increasingly more discussed issue, primarily due to a negative impact on global biodiversity. It has also an economic impact and it affects human health. It is therefore important to study the introduction of plant species and their distribution, and monitor them in some way. This is particularly applied to protected areas, where rare species of plants are often endangered. In this work were described factors that affect distribution of alien plant species in the level of plant communities, landscape and large territories. For the practical part of the work has been selected the Křivoklátsko PLA as a model area, mainly because of detailed botanical mapping. There were analysed diversity, origin and distribution of alien plant species. Also the effect of selected factors on distribution of alien plant species in the Křivoklátsko PLA were assessed. The average altitude is the strongest factor. The second strongest factor is the fraction of anthropogenic habitats and moderate factor is the habitat diversity. The length of rivers is weak predictor and the length of roads is very weak predictor of number of alien plant species.

Mapping of invasive plants in PLA Křivoklátsko
Popová, Karolína ; Tesařová, Blanka (advisor) ; Petrus, David (referee)
In this thesis I have dealt with invasive plants which were mapped during the summer of 2015 in the defined area of interest in Křivoklátsko. Plant species Impatiens glandulifera, Solidago canadensis Solidago gigantea, Reynoutria japonica, which occur in the relevant territory, belong among the most spread invasive species in the Czech Republic
In the first bibliographical part of this research I deal with the general definition of invasive plants with a detailed characteristic of the monitored plants as well as the methods of invasive species management and the specifics of the mapped area which covers most of the Berounka Site of Community Importance.
The practical part describes the research methodology and the field research. The final chapter evaluates the occurrence of the species in relation to the overall relevant area. It was found that the largest area is occupied by the species Impatiens glandulifera near the river Berounka, which facilitates its spreading. Other species represent minimal coverage in this area.

Invasive plants in PLA Křivoklátsko
Drhlíková, Kristýna ; Tesařová, Blanka (advisor) ; Petrus, David (referee)
This thesis deals with the occurrence of invasive plants species such as Heracleum mantegazzianum, Solidago canadensis and gigantea, Impatiens glandulifera, Reynoutria japonica, sachalinensis and bohemica., which are the most feared plants in the Czech Republic. Invasions are an environmental problem on a global scale, which is increasingly the more discussed.
The mapping took place in the summer of 2015 on the territory of protected natural region Křivoklátsko, where there is a large extent Sites of Community Importance. The thesis is also focused on the characteristics of the area with European significance.
It evaluated the incidence of plant sites, their surface representation and percentage of species in different habitats. Impatiens glandulifera, near Berounka river, was the most surface represented, as the river is the main source of spread for this species. Another occuring species was Solidago canadensis and only two specimen of Reynoutria japonica.
The invaded areas expansion on the area of interest is minimal.

Responsible tourism in Křivoklátsko
STAROSTOVÁ, Markéta
This thesis deals with the responsible tourism in the selected area CHKO Křivoklátsko. The aim of the thesis is to evaluate the current state of eco-friendly types of tourismin this location through the analysis of its present supply. On the basis of the questionnaire research was also evaluated how are visitors interested in activities of responsible tourism. The data that were obtained through the analysis of supply and demand were used as a basis for suggestions of optimization of products of responsible tourism in this area.

Potential of Protected Landscape Area Křivoklátsko for environmental education in elementary school
MÜLLEROVÁ, Barbora
The goal of this bachelor thesis is to find out the importance of Protected Landscape Area (PLA) Křivoklátsko for environmental education in elementary school. Firstly we carried out the field research thanks to which we discovered the information about total character of area of interest as well as the particular nature trails in PLA Křivoklátsko. Owing to information collecting in field we asked Elementary School Křivoklát for cooperation. The theoretical part deals with role of this topic in curricular documents which are validated in the Czech Republic. We read carefully the Framework Education Programme for Elementary Education, the School Education Programme and the Thematic Plans of Elementary School Křivoklát and chosen textbooks with valid clause by Ministry of Education, Youth and Sports. On the basis of all gained information we formed a questionnaire and it was made the pilot research between pupils who are attending the sixth and the ninth class in Elementary School Křivoklát. This research of pupils´ knows ledges concerns nature conservation in the Czech Republic and in the local region, PLA Křivoklátsko. With respect to the results of pilot research and other gained information about the area of interest it was subjectively evaluated the importance of PLA Křivoklátsko for the environmental education in elementary school. Subsequently there were suggested some subject matters for wider using PLA Křivoklátsko in teaching which may be the item of more detailed describing in diploma thesis.
