Abstract

V originále

Within last two decades, education of undergraduate and postgraduate students at the Masaryk University (Brno), an institution responsible for running the Czech Antarctic station J.G.Mendel and education of a new generation of Czech specialists in a variety of disciplines in Antarctic science, has been carried out in regular courses: (1) Polar Ecology, and (2) Polar Plant Biology. The two core courses have annual attendance of about 20 students each and focus a variety of topics related to Antarctic science. The course Polar Ecology covers the theoretical part of geoscientific disciplines focused on Polar regions. It includes information covering polar research in the following scientific branches: geology, geomorphology, meteorology, climatology, glaciology, hydrology and limnology. The Polar Plant Biology includes Plants in the Arctic and Antarctica, vegetation of coastal and continental Antarctica, vascular plants in polar regions, diversity of algae and cyanobacteria, mosses and lichens • physiology of plant acclimation and adaptation, and plant stress physiology. Just recently, some new courses have been introduced to attract international students coming to the Masaryk university mainly within ERASMUS- or bilateral agreement-based framework. The new courses (given in English) are: (a) Past, Present and Future Changes of the Cryosphere, and (b) Experimental Plant Biology.
