  • Altitude and Forest Type Effects on Soils in the Jizera Mountains Region
    Soil & Water Res., 2, 2007 (2): 35–44 Altitude and Forest Type Effects on Soils in the Jizera Mountains Region LENKA PAVLŮ, LUBOŠ BORŮVKA, ANTONÍN NIKODEM, MARCELA ROHOŠKOVÁ and VÍT PENÍŽEK Department of Soil Science and Geology, Faculty of Agrobiology, Food and Natural Resources, Czech University of Life Sciences in Prague, Prague, Czech Republic Abstract: This paper is focused on the Jizera Mountains as a region strongly influenced by man in the past. The structure of the natural forest was changed. Species monocultures with similar tree ages were planted. High acidificants concentrations in atmosphere led to the decline of these monoculture forests in the top parts of the mountains and the high acidificants deposition damaged the soils in the whole region. The goals of this study are to describe the distribution of the soil properties in altitude transects, where temperature, precipitation, and vegetation gradients are recorded, and to compare the soil properties in spruce and beech forests. The soil samples were collected from soil pits in a surviving nature-close beech forest, in a production spruce forest, and also in the top dead forest area with a grass cover. Soil samples from sufficiently deep diagnostic horizons were taken for the study of chemical properties. The basic soil characteristics were determined by the commonly used methods (pH, effective cation exchange capacity – eCEC, and the contents of cations in the sorption complex, A400/A600 as humus quality parameter, the contents of available Ca, Mg, K and P, pseudototal content of Ca and Mg, and two differently extracted Fe and Al forms contents).

  • The Historical Cultural Landscape of the Western Sudetes. an Introduction to the Research
    Summary The historical cultural landscape of the western Sudetes. An introduction to the research I. Introduction The authors of the book attempted to describe the cultural landscape created over the course of several hundred years in the specific mountain and foothills conditions in the southwest of Lower Silesia in Poland. The pressure of environmental features had an overwhelming effect on the nature of settlements. In conditions of the widespread predominance of the agrarian economy over other categories of production, the foot- hills and mountains were settled later and less intensively than those well-suited for lowland agriculture. This tendency is confirmed by the relatively rare settlement of the Sudetes in the early Middle Ages. The planned colonisation, conducted in Silesia in the 13th century, did not have such an intensive course in mountainous areas as in the lowland zone. The western part of Lower Silesia and the neighbouring areas of Lusatia were colonised by in a planned programme, bringing settlers from the German lan- guage area and using German legal models. The success of this programme is consid- ered one of the significant economic and organisational achievements of Prince Henry I the Bearded. The testimony to the implementation of his plan was the creation of the foundations of mining and the first locations in Silesia of the cities of Złotoryja (probably 1211) and Lwówek (1217), perhaps also Wleń (1214?). The mountain areas further south remained outside the zone of intensive colonisation. This was undertak- en several dozen years later, at the turn of the 13th and 14th centuries, and mainly in the 14th century, adapting settlement and economy to the special conditions of the natural environment.

  • Road Book 2020
    Wenger Czech Adventure Race 2020: Roadbook Dear racers, welcome to our beautiful area of Bohemian Paradise where we have tried to find the most attractive places for you. We believe you will enjoy the race in the breathtaking countryside rich in natural as well as historical sights. Start CZAR20: TA1, Thursday 27th October 2020 v 9 am. Czech Paradise Sandstone rocks, dead volcanoes, wets, deep forests are typical natural heritage, while ruins, castles and old folk homes remind of cultural history. Jizera river is the arteria and Jizera Mountains and Krkonose/Giant Mountains are the surroundings. Traditional crafts include the jewelry, jewel cutting, glass making and wood carving. Prachov Rocks – the visit of Rock Town is highly recommended The formations are made of sandstone, originally in the form of a plateau. Since its formation over 60 million years ago, the rock has been eroded by wind and rain into the unique forms found at the site Stage: Orienteering (15 km, elevation gain 650m, free order) Sandstone climbing in the Bohemian Paradise originated about 100 years ago. First, after the WWI German climbers climbed in the Bohemian Paradise. In the 1930s, however, pioneers from Czechoslovakia took over the pioneering. Many climbers grew up in the rock towns and took part in expeditions to the mountains around the world. Today we can only admire the courage and determination with which they embarked on difficult first ascents. Mainly because they lacked basic climbing equipment. They had ordinary hemp ropes, old slippers were used as climbing shoes, and harnesses were sewn at home from old fire hoses.

  • A Century of Czech Tramping 19 FOLKLORICA 2011, Vol. XVI ARTICLES a Century of Czech Tramping Jan Pohunek Institute of Ethnology
    A Century of Czech tramping 19 ARTICLES A Century of Czech tramping Jan Pohunek Institute of Ethnology, Faculty of Arts, Charles University Prague, Czech Republic Abstract The article describes the history and major characteristics of an independent Czech youth movement called “tramping”. The movement originated in the 1910s-1920s as an unorganized offshoot of boy scouting and E. T. Seton’s Woodcraft and quickly became popular among urban teens and young adults. It was simply a way of spending time outdoors with friends at first, heavily influenced by early western movies and Wild West aesthetics in general, but became a distinctive subculture and cultural phenomenon during the following decades. Some of its unique aspects include specific music, slang, art and dress code. Czech tramping is also an interesting example of an early youth subculture, which is comparable to post-WW2 subcultures and which survived into the present day although its participants were often persecuted, especially under the communist regime. Another topic discussed is the fact that the movement kept its independence even under political pressure, rejected all attempts to organize it hierarchically and while it sometimes had a dimension of a protest culture in the 20th century, it can be considered to be apolitical in general. It is now almost a hundred years since an interesting modern folk cultural phenomenon began to establish itself in Bohemia. ‘Tramping’ (1), as it is called nowadays, can be described as an unorganized youth movement, or a subculture, that is heavily inspired by the romantic image of the American Wild West and that manifests itself mostly through outdoor social activities such as hiking or camping, accompanied by specific styles of music, slang, architecture, art and clothing.

First, the historical moment of this heritage appearing is introduced and second, the way of its contemporary presence and connected cultiural problems. As a key study were discussed from both perspectives: evangelical church in Karpacz so-called Wang Temple (brought in fi rst half of XIX-th century by Prussian king Wilhelm III from Norway) – nowadays under protection of polish evangelical parish; also: life and charity work of Marianna Orańska – owner of the castle in Kamieniec Ząbkowicki and neighbourhood grounds – nowadays touristic route leading on the borderland of Poland and Czech Republic, following in Marianna’s steps and history of evangelical community from Tyrol, brought to Mysłakowice by Prussian king Wilhelm III – nowadays Tyrol’s House lead by Zierthall commune from Austria.
