Monitoring shifts of the rock block "Hřebenáč" in the Moravian Karst
Geratová, Patrícia ; Kašpar, Karel (referee) ; Šváb, Tomáš (advisor)
The bachelor thesis deals with the monitoring of horizontal and vertical movements of the rock formation "Hřebenáč". The monitoring was conducted in order to assess visitor safety in the area, for the formation is located near the entrance to the cave and is popular with climbers. Before conducting the monitoring a survey network was created and points of contact located on the formation face. The monitoring was carried out in two stages using a trigonometric and a levelling method. The data obtained in individual stages were balanced, transformed and compared. The results of the thesis will be provided to the administration of the protected landscape area CHKO Moravský kras.

Monitoring of cracks in the masonry of sacral buildings
Kozubková, Tereza ; Stehlík, Michal (referee) ; Cikrle, Petr (advisor)
This bachelor thesis deals with the monitoring of cracks in masonry of religious buildings and suitable methods of measuring their movements. The first part of the thesis deals with the historical development of the selected building and the description of the structure. It then describes the methods suitable for monitoring movements in cracks and the design of a suitable methodology for monitoring similar objects. The second part of this thesis is devoted to the practical measurements of the selected object, their evaluation and assessment of the state of the structure.

Movements within non-breeding grounds in terrestrial migratory birds
Kadlecová, Barbora ; Brlík, Vojtěch (advisor) ; Remeš, Vladimír (referee)
In recent years, the ecology of migratory birds has been a frequently studied subject especially due to modern tracking technologies. However, facts about behaviour of migratory birds on wintering areas are still limited. This thesis gathers information about movements within non-breeding grounds and stationary behaviour of terrestrial birds on wintering areas and about reasons of the movements. The majority of described movements occurred in Africa and South America and they were usually made by insectivorous songbirds. Majority of published data describes long-distance movements above 100 km. The most discussed factor of the movements was an availability of food which is affected by vegetation and the seasonal weather. Apart from the environmental factors I considered inner factors too, e. g. age or sex of birds. I also proposed some additional factors as a potential cause of movements within non-breeding grounds. The information about movements on wintering areas could serve as ground for further research of the behaviour of birds on wintering grounds, the influence of environmental conditions on the ecology of migratory birds and the information could also improve the protection of migratory birds.

Spatial activity of birds and methods of its continuous monitoring
Havelka, Jan ; Sedláček, Ondřej (advisor) ; Kauzál, Ondřej (referee)
The aim of this work was to collect current knowledge of avian spatial aktivity focusing to its internal structure, using modern telemetry devices which allows continuous monitoring of small animal species. In the light of these new methods, avian home ranges seem to be more dynamic structures, changing during diurnal and nocturnal acitvities, breeding cycle, age, sex and social statut of a bird. Thanks to detailed radiotelemetry we can observe even secretive animal behaviour and its characteristics in three dimensions. Continual monitoring allows us to study migration in a detailed way, its influence to other parts of their annual cycle and to asses migration connectivity. In future these new information should be used for targeted conservation of endangered species.

Dancing with the Eyes of the Blind
Stráníková, Anežka ; Šumníková, Pavlína (advisor) ; Mužáková, Monika (referee)
This diploma thesis is focused on issues of dance in relation to blind people. The goal of the thesis is to find out how to compensate for a blind person's lack of visual perception through dance. A secondary goal is to explore what dance means to blind people. The research is based on theoretical solutions obtained by analysis of available sources and based on research using qualitative strategies. To fulfill the research task, techniques of participant observation and interviews were used. From the data obtained through semi-structured interviews and observation of blind respondents in the framework of dance events, it has been found that dance is an effective form of stimulation and development of the compensatory senses of blind people. Most significantly dance influenced the participants' perception of their bodies, developing their capabilities and ability to respond to internal and external stimuli. The results of other interviews show that all blind participants have experience with dance. This experience is overwhelmingly positive. The survey confirms the importance of dance for blind people in the planes of their physical, mental and social faculties. KEY WORDS blindness, dance, compensation, perception, senses, movements, neuroplasticity
