Diploma thesis is an environmentally and process oriented project which is based on the issue of the so-called bark beetle calamity. It deals with the personification of non-human life. It uses experience with materials, their handling and processing.
A knowledge of secondary school students on forests, bark beetles and bark beetle outbreaks
PAVLOVEC, Petr
PAVLOVEC, Petr. Knowledge of primary school students about forests, bark beetle and bark beetlecalamity. Bachelor thesis. Faculty of Education, University of South Bohemia in České Budějovice, Department of Biology, 2021, 63 pages. The bachelor's thesis deals with the knowledge of pupils of the 2nd grade of primary schools about forest management in Czech forests and about the nation wide problem which has currently become a bark beetlecalamity. The aim of the bachelor's thesis is to find out whether primary school pupils are sufficiently familiar with the problem of bark beetlecalamity and to assess thed ifferences in pupils' knowledge in areas with a high incidence of the issue in contrast to areas almou untouched. Pupils' information and awareness of forests and the bark beetle (Scolytinae) subfamily will be obtained through aquestionnaire. The questionnaire was distributed to pupils of chosen secondary schools.
The issue of Ips typographus in the National park Šumava ?application into geographical education
Faflák, Jiří ; Matějček, Tomáš (advisor) ; Král, Luboš (referee)
The issue of Ips typographus in the National park Šumava - application into geographical education Abstract The bachelor thesis deals with the issue of Ips typographus with an emphasis on the possible ways of solving the outbreaks of its population in the National Park of Šumava. This work is also concerned with the application of articles dealing with this problem into geographical education. The outbreaks caused by the Spruce Bark Beetle are a long-term problem typical for non-native spruce monocultures that have replaced, not only in Šumava, the native mixed forests. The opinions on how to approach this matter differ a lot and it is quite hard to assess their objectivity. The method of active reading proved to be ideal when including this topic into geographical education. Active reading of texts in the geographical lessons helps students to develop critical thinking and to shape their individual opinion. The set of articles presented in this thesis encompassing various insights on how to solve the Spruce Bark Beetle outbreaks in Šumava will help the teacher in developing the above mentioned students' skills. Articles are divided into three separate groups according to the solution they propose. A CD included in this work contains selected articles. Teachers have the option to work with the articles and...

Natural regeneration of Norway spruce in mountain forests and at disturbed plots
Urbanová, Renáta ; Hadincová, Věroslava (advisor) ; Brůna, Josef (referee)
The natural regeneration of Picea abies in undisturbed mountain spruce forests as well as in disturbed areas formed by windstorms and overgrowth of bark beetles, especially spruce bark beetle (Ips typographus), takes place primarily through seed germination from a transitional soil seed bank. The quality of the soil seed bank depends on the amount of seeds available, which varies significantly throughout years, and on environment conditions. Interannual changes in the amount of seeds produced are caused by the irregular occurrence of seed years, which reflects weather changes in the context of ongoing climate change. Increased average air temperature and unevenly distributed rainfalls throughout the year have a positive effect on the spruce phenology, seed abundance and quality and results in increasing frequency of seed years. The large amount of seeds during seed years induces increased abundance of granivores for which the seeds are the source of nutrients and environment for their development. Seed predators of invertebrates and, small vertebrates groups and fungal pathogens significantly reduce the proportion of seeds needed for spruce natural regeneration. This bachelor thesis summarizes up to now knowledge explaining mechanisms and interactions associated with the soil seed bank of Picea...
Shaping of Students' Attitudes in Geographical Education - The Issue of Ips Typographus Outbreaks
Faflák, Jiří ; Matějček, Tomáš (advisor) ; Hanus, Martin (referee)
Shaping of students' attitudes in geographical education - the issue of Ips typographus outbreaks Abstract The diploma thesis deals with shaping the students' attitudes by utilising various texts during the geography classes. This experiment is shown on particular problem of Spruce Bark Beetle in the National Park of Šumava. There are two main streams towards this issue of Spruce Bark Beetle-one of them promotes the idea of incorporating the human intervention, while reducing the disaster, the other follows the opposite attitude towards the outbreak of the Spruce Bark Beetle, and that is not to intervene at all and to leave the destructed vegetation to regenerate. The backbone of the thesis is represented by a survey that aims at finding attitudes towards the problem mentioned above. Moreover, the survey also questions the way the attitudes change depending on critical reading of distinctive texts. Two main questions are posed in this research. The results are graphically depicted and commented upon in the thesis. The research shows the extent to which it is possible to influence the students' opinion utilising quality study texts. Key words: Spruce Bark Beetle (Ips typographus), National park Šumava, Spruce Bark Beetle outbreak, geographical education, critical thinking, active reading, shaping of attitudes

Estimate of available nutrients in forest soil after bark beetle outbreak of stands after salvage logging and of stands left without intervention in the Šumava National park
DRÁBKOVÁ, Marie
The aim of this study is to estimate and compare the amount of available nutrients in forest soil of stands where the salvage logging took place after the dieback of the forest caused by bark beetle outbreak and of stands left without any intervention in protected areas in Šumava National Park. The study also focus on the influence of the vegetation cover and decaying wood on the soil chemistry, especially on the cationt exchange capacity, base cationts and aluminium contents. Preliminary results and proposal of future research are given.
