Course objectives
The approach to the Landscape is ecosystematic, with terrain identifications of landscape entities, analysis and interpretations, evaluation and proposals of landscape improvement.

Main objectives can be summarized as follows:
to widen students knowledge of the Geography necessary for Landscape studium;
to identify landscape structures;
to understand Landscape-Biota phenomenons;
to learn how to do landscape-ecological mapping
to understand the principles of Ecological networks and rules of their proposals.
Learning outcomes
The student after the passing this course inter alia should be able:
- to explain terms as Zonobiom, Orobiom, Geobiom and Biom, to know examples of them, and diferences among them;
- to explain the term "Landscape phenomenon", to name them and to characterize them;
- to characterize co-called Anemo-Orographical systems and hilltoping, including types of their localities;
- to explain terms as primary, secondary and tertiary landscape structures and how are connected in the Landscape;
- to choose adequate landscape metrics for a requested task, to characterize it and explain its advantages and weak aspects;
- to characterize Ecological Networks and Territorial Systems of Ecological Stability of Landscape and to explain their expected functions.

Teaching methods
Lectures are held with help of powerpoint presentations with many picture illustrations. Part of the class exercises is replaced by terrain excursion - with active cooperation of the students. During the course students elaborate terrain project (mapping of a landscape).
Assessment methods
Exam is oral with posibility of preparation (ca 25 min.). It must be fullfiled at least on level "E".
Quality of the terrain project gives cca 20 % of final course mark.
Quality of collaboration in excercises gives cca 10 % of the final course mark including terrain excursion.
To obtain the possiblility to attend the exam, students have to present their notes from the excursion to the seminar tutor.

to widen students knowledge of the Geography necessary for Landscape studium;
to identify landscape structures;
to understand Landscape-Biota phenomenons;
to understand the principles of Ecological networks and rules of their proposals.
Learning outcomes
The student after the passing this course inter alia should be able:
- to explain terms as Zonobiom, Orobiom, Geobiom and Biom, to know examples of them, and diferences among them;
- to explain the term "Landscape phenomenon", to name them and to characterize them;
- to characterize co-called Anemo-Orographical systems and hilltoping, including types of their localities;
- to explain terms as primary, secondary and tertiary landscape structures and how are connected in the Landscape;
- to choose adequate landscape metrics for a requested task, to characterize it and explain its advantages and weak aspects;
- to characterize Ecological Networks and Territorial Systems of Ecological Stability of Landscape and to explain their expected functions.
Syllabus

Teaching methods
Lectures are held with help of powerpoint presentations with many picture illustrations. Part of the class exercises is replaced by terrain excursion - with active cooperation of the students. During the course students elaborate terrain project (mapping of a landscape).
Assessment methods
Exam is done by written test. It must be at least on level "E" anyway. Quality of the terrain project gives cca 20% of final course mark. Recognization of common woods in Czechia (on computer screen) gives another cca 20% of final mark. Quality of collaboration in excercises gives cca 10% of the final course mark. To obtain the possiblility to attend the exam, students have to present their notes from the excursion to the seminar tutor.

Teaching methods
Lectures are held with help of powerpoint presentations with many picture illustrations. Part of the class exercises is replaced by terrain excursion - with active cooperation of the students. During the course students elaborate terrain project (mapping of a landscape).
Assessment methods
Exam is done by written test. It must be at least on level "E" anyway. Quality of the terrain project gives cca 20% of final course mark. Recognization of common woods in Czechia (on computer screen) gives another cca 20% of final mark. Quality of collaboration in excercises give cca 10% of the final course mark. To obtain the possiblility to attend the exam, students have to present their notes from the excursion to the seminar tutor.

Course objectives (in Czech)
Předmět krajinná ekologie představuje aplikaci fyzické a humánní geografie v interdisciplinárním studiu krajiny. Je orientován environmentálně, jeho základ je ekosystémový s terénními identifikacemi, analýzou, interpretací, hodnocením a návrhy úprav v kontextu trvalé udržitelnosti.Výchozím přístupem je mapování současné kulturní krajiny, její historie a možnosti úprav interakcí lidské společnosti a přírody. Krajinu chápe i jako sociální konstrukci, zaměřuje se na možnosti vyvážených změn kulturních, ekonomických a sociálních s respektem jak k přírodě, tak k uváženým potřebám společnosti. Nezbytnou součástí studia je schopnost identifikace základních entit krajiny včetně biologických objektů.

Teaching methods
Lectures are held with help of powerpoint presentations with many picture illustrations. Part of the class exercises is replaced by terrain excursion - with active cooperation of the students. During the course students elaborate terrain project (mapping of a landscape).
Assessment methods
Exam is done by written test. It must be at least on level "E" anyway. Quality of the terrain project gives cca 20% of final course mark. Recognization of common woods in Czechia (on computer screen) gives another cca 20% of final mark. Quality of collaboration in excercises give cca 10% of the final course mark. To obtain the possiblility to attend the exam, students have to present their notes from the excursion to the seminar tutor.

Course objectives (in Czech)
Předmět krajinná ekologie představuje aplikaci fyzické a humánní geografie v interdisciplinárním studiu krajiny. Je orientován environmentálně, jeho základ je ekosystémový s terénními identifikacemi, analýzou, interpretací, hodnocením a návrhy úprav v kontextu trvalé udržitelnosti.Výchozím přístupem je mapování současné kulturní krajiny, její historie a možnosti úprav interakcí lidské společnosti a přírody. Krajinu chápe jako sociální konstrukci, zaměřuje se na možnosti vyvážených změn kulturních, ekonomických, sociálních a politických s respektem jak k přírodě, tak k uváženým potřebám společnosti. Nezbytnou součástí studia je schopnost identifikace základních entit krajiny včetně biologických objektů.
