The course provides basic information about selected problems surveyed by geographers in Czechia. The introductory lesson deals with landscape protection - the species and territorial protection. The next lecture gives the information about geological and geomorphological conditions in the Czech Republic, which is followed by pedogeographical overview in the next seminar. Weather and climate extremes and their meteorological causes are discussed later on. Next two seminars are focused on hydrology and hydrogeography of the Czech Republic including the sources of pollution and the development of water quality in the context of the political changes in the Central Europe.
Human geography part of the course is based on the social and economic geography topics - agriculture and industry, tertiary sector, tourism. Suburbanization process is under discussion, as well as international migration, in the European context. The final seminar consists of the students' papers presentation - essays or short surveys on selected topics, which were worked out under the tutorship of the participant teachers.
