AbstractThe distribution and ecology of desmids in wetland habitats in the Czech Republic were studied during 2003–2007. Samples were taken also from various aerophytic habitats and temporary pools thet had not been sufficiently studied before. Altogether 110 desmids taxa were found in 31 samples which were ordinated on the basis of their desmid species composition using a multivariate statistic method. The discussion focuses on the most interesting findings and on the factors that influence the distribution of desmids in different types of aerophytic habitats.

Volunteer Time

The economic value of volunteering is an increasingly important part of volunteering management. It has become part of public policies. Some requests for proposals (RFP) enable nonprofits to include the value of volunteer time in compulsory co-financing. These RFP include the European Economic Area (EEA) Grants and Norway Grants. This article addresses the relationship in the value of volunteering, also called in-kind volunteering contributions. The research includes two case studies of finances from EEA and Norway Grants in the Czech Republic: the Czech NGO Programme, responsible for allocating grants between 2009 and 2014, and the Active Citizens Fund, responsible for allocating grants between 2014 and 2021. They share elements through the EEA and Norway Grants rules. However, they use different types of specialist replacement wages. The article summarizes the arguments for including in-kind volunteering contributions. It presents the possible values of these contributions in the selected cases, including the relationship between the type of volunteering and the number of hours necessary to achieve these values. The article defines the theoretical basis for calculating the value of in-kind volunteer contributions and illustrates this with real examples of allocations from EEA and Norway Grants.

Results of an analysis of dipteran pests composition and changes of their importance in agricultural, horticultural and ornamental plants during the 20th century are given. Even 89 Diptera species have been registered as pests of these plants (1.1 % of all species known in the Czech Republic). Of these ca 14 (16%) species caused regular and important and other 23 (26%) species occasional damages. The remaining 52 (58%) species are unimportant, local and sporadic pests. Only small changes (10% maximally) in the species composition of more important dipteran pests have been registered during the century.

Abstract This epidemiological study monitored the occurrence of the coccidia genus Eimeria and their species composition over a oneyear period at an organic sheep farm in the Czech Republic. Individual faecal samples were collected from thirty lambs and thirty ewes once a month throughout the whole survey. As a result, 348 and 333 samples from ewes and lambs respectively were evaluated using the faecal flotation technique. The overall prevalence of eimeriosis was 75.7% and 54.0% for lambs and ewes respectively. Four Eimeria species (E. ovinoidalis, E. crandallis/weybridgensis, E. parva, and E. intricata) were identified in both, lambs and ewes, during this survey. The most prevalent species was E. ovinoidalis, with an overall prevalence of 84% in ewes and 85% in lambs, followed by E. parva and E. crandallis/weybridgensis. The oocysts faecal output was seasonal. The highest oocysts per gram levels were detected in February (139 000) and May (250 000) in ewes and in February (1 949 900), March (326 000), and May (187 700) in lambs. The intensity of Eimeria infection differed significantly (P < 0.0001) between ewes and lambs during the monitored period.

Refractive Index Detection

Polymerised triacylglycerols (TAG) were determined in the fat of 66 industrially produced fried foods (especially frozen pre-fried French fries, potato chips and other fried snacks) and 56 samples of French fries (and other forms of fried potatoes) prepared in restaurants, snack bars, and other catering establishments. All samples were purchased in the Czech Republic, especially in Prague, in the years 2012–2014. Polymerised TAG were determined by HP-SEC with refractive index detection, after the fat extraction with petroleum ether. While in none of the samples of industrially produced fried foods did the content of polymerised TAG in fat exceed the limit value of 12%, in French fries provided by different types of catering establishments this threshold was exceeded in 9 samples (i.e. approximately in 16% of the analysed samples).

Different Types

Housing and activities integrate the satisfaction of other human needs. In this regard, we can look at housing as a tool for the development of society itself. The division of different forms of housing in the Czech Republic into several groups can be done in many different ways. It always depends on who formulates the different types of housing.
