  • 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).

(2014): Horizontal channel development on the upper Jizera and the upper Vltava Rivers between 1938 and 2012. Geografie, 119, No. 2, pp. 105–125. – Through the use of orthophotomaps from 1938 and 1952, this paper examines the develop- ment of horizontal channels of selected rivers in mountain areas of the Bohemian Massif. Two study sites in northern and southern part of Bohemian Massif were analysed in order to evaluate changes in river channels under similar natural conditions. Developments on the Upper Jizera River and its tributary, the Jizerka River, were investigated for the time period of 1938–2012. The Upper Vltava (Moldau) river, along with its tributaries, was studied in regards to developments taking place over the period of 1952–2012. Historical orthophoto- maps were georeferenced and river banks were subsequently determined through the use of ArcGIS software. Both sites are situated in wide valleys with a low gradient, representing an exceptional relief in generally mountainous regions. Channel changes are documented via fluvial lakes, paleomeander remnants and meander cut-offs. Together with high precipitation rates in both basins, periods of extreme floodings seem to have a significant influence on channel development and transformation. Lateral erosion is somewhat less intense when compared to other rivers in similar natural environments across Central E urope. The esti- mated maximum lateral erosion in the Upper Jizera River basin is 0.5 m.year−1, whereas in the Vltava River basin, the lateral erosion reaches up to 1.1 m.year−1.

  • Municipal Flags in Bohemia
    Municipal Flags in Bohemia ALe§ Bro2ek I believe that those who have ever visited Czechoslovakia will agree with me when I say that our country does not belong among such flag-rich coun tries as West Germany or the Netherlands. Nevertheless, we have a strong flag study society. It is called the Prague Vexillological Club and has been uniting both Czechoslovak flag scholars, and collectors for 13 years. Since its very beginning out Club has promoted an interest not only in - the history of the Czechoslovak State Flag but also in the municipal — flags of our country. One of its first projects was therefore underta— ken with the aim of the collecting data both on historic and contempora ry municipal flags in use in the territory of Bohemia, Moravia, and Slo vakia. We mailed about a thousand letters to nearly all district and municipal museums, archives and administrations asking them to inform us whether municipal flags were or are flown there. Their replies should include ther a description of the flag, or a drawing in the case of a more comply cated flag pattern, data on colour symbolism and flag usage, and biblio­ graphic references. It was sometimes necessary to send a second or third query before we received a reply. The quality of replies varied. We some­ times got a negative answer from an administration and an affirmative — one from a museum or archives in the same town. Data obtained from the replies were compiled by Dr. Ludvik Mucha, chair­ man of the Prague Vexillological Club. He also incorporated in them the information provided by Jan Miller of Warsaw, one of the world's experts in municipal vexillology, as well as by some members of Prague Vexillolo gical Club.

  • Radioactivity of Mineral Waters in Bohemia
    Radioactivity of mineral waters in Bohemia RADIOACTIVITY OF MINERAL WATERS IN BOHEMIA Z. KREJBICHOVA´ AQUATEST SG, a.s., Geologicka ´ 4, 152 00 Praha 5, Czech Republic CzechRadioactivityZ.Krejbichov´ a of mineral waters in Bohemia Republic is a country of many mineral and thermal springs. Studies of mineral waters including chemical and radiochemical analyses have been conducted in Czechoslovakia for a long time. Company Aquatest-Stavebn´ı geologie (AQ) took part in these activities since early 1960s – new capture of springs, survey drillings, proposition of protective zones. An offer of available radiochemical analytical methods is presented in this paper. Survey of historical data and of analyses of other institutes is listed for comparison. The parallels with some foreign mineral sources are mentioned. 1 Natural radionuclides in mineral water Mineral and thermal waters are a special kind of ground-waters distinguished by specific chemical and physical properties as, e.g., higher mineralisation, trace ele- ments, dissolved gas, higher temperature or radioactivity. Mineral and thermal waters are usually connected with specific and unique geological and tectonic structures. From the geological point of view, the average dose equivalent of 0,37 mSv per year is measured on the territory of Czech Republic. In granite massifs and other naturally radioactive rocks or permo-carbon basins higher values of 1,1 – 1,7 mSv per year have been detected. Elements of the uranium- radium family have greater signification than those of the thorium series [1]. A high number of mineral waters in Bohemia is a part of the great European province of carbonated waters, which extends from France over Eiffel, Rhön, Harz to the West Bohemia and to Silesia.

  • The Development of the Health and Social Care Sector in the Regions of the Czech Republic in Comparison with Other EU Countries
    social sciences $€ £ ¥ Article The Development of the Health and Social Care Sector in the Regions of the Czech Republic in Comparison with other EU Countries Erika Urbánková Department of Economic Theories, Faculty of Economics and Management, Czech University of Life Sciences, Prague 16500, Czech Republic; [email protected] Received: 6 April 2019; Accepted: 29 May 2019; Published: 3 June 2019 Abstract: In this paper, the quantitative status of employees in the Health and Social Care sector in the Czech Republic is assessed, and the future development of the sector is predicted both for the Czech Republic as a whole, and for individual regions according to the NUTS3 classification. At present, labor market prognoses are created using the ROA-CERGE model, which includes the main professions in the Health and Social Care sector. This article expands the predictions by adding the regional level and using extrapolation of time series, and it identifies the regions important for the given sector and the labor force. The position of the Czech Republic with regard to selected professions in comparison with other countries of the European Union, i.e., its qualitative status, is also assessed in the paper. The following professions are assessed: general nurses and midwives (both with and without a specialization), physicians, and professional assistants. Healthcare workers do not manifest geographical mobility between regions and work primarily in the region where they live. Since the Czech Republic’s accession to the EU, staff working in key professions have been able to work under comparable conditions in any of the member states. The workforce flow depends, among other things, on its qualitative representation in the given country.
