During 1997, within the framework of an Italian-funded scientific cooperation between Italy and the Czech Republic, a series of magnetotelluric (MT) soundings was carried out in the region of Northwest Bohemia (Czech Republic). This is one of the most seismically active areas in Central Europe, where micro-earthquake swarms frequently occur during the apparently quiescent intervals between large macro-seismic swarms. Fifteen MT stations were installed in an area of about 15 ´ 20 km2 where 80% of the seismicity of the entire region has been recorded since 1986. The area showed a high electromagnetic noise, possibly of high cultural origin from the nearby industrial zone of the Sokolov basin, which affected both the electric and the magnetic signals. The final data, carefully selected, were modeled by 2D and 3D techniques. The results show an extensive conductive structure in the depth range from 0.5 to 3 km. This structure could be connected with the locally buried granitic massif in the inhomogeneous metamorphic basement, probably accompanied by fracturation, thermo-metamorphism or paleofluids. Moreover, the presence of a conductive anomaly in the northern part of the investigated region could be linked to a lithological change in the metamorphic rocks (prevalence of phyllites over mica schists), which would even increase the effect of the granite.

Abandoned iron skarn deposit Hraničná is located 16 km NW of Jeseník, Silesia, Czech Republic. It is situated in the Staré Město Crystalline Complex, belt of high grade metamorphic rocks, which suppose to be a meta-ophiolite of the initial Cambro-Ordovican rifting. The deposit itself is formed by two stratiform magnetite-hematite bands within the marbles and quartz-rich biotite gneisses. Marbles containing silicates are rich in Zn and Pb and give evidence for sedimentary of volcanosedimentary origin of the ore accumulation. We collected several samples at the adit and +20 m levels of the mine which yielded phosphohedyphane. Mineral forms irregular aggregates up to 100 μm within the calcite-dolomite-magnetite skarn. Its average chemical formula from 7 WDS spots is (Ca2.07Sr0.03Ba0.01Mg0.02Pb3.23Zn0.01Fe0.09Al0.01)Σ5.47[(PO4)2.53(AsO4)0.03(SO3)0.01(SiO4)0.24]Σ2.81[Cl1.05F0.20]Σ1.25 based on 13 O+Cl+F. Use of the normalization to Ca1 + Ca2 = 5 and employing the charge balance could lead to the possible presence of (CO3)2- up to 0.60 apfu, resp. 3.61 hm. % CO2; this possible content do not have any effect on mineral classification. It is, therefore, fifth reported occurrence of this mineral in the territory of the Czech Republic and the Bohemian Massif.

Questionnaire Method

The aim of the article is to present the results of a method of public preferences – a questionnaire survey finding an awareness of the relation between the modifications of watercourses and recreation in urban environment. The aquatic ecosystem and the water itself in a landscape are regarded by citizens as a mere source of energy, food, and water used for industry or as a means of transport. However, water elements along with the flora and fauna belonging to this living ecosystem provide a plethora of opportunities for a development of e.g. recreation, tourism, even an entire region. The questionnaire method used has been applied in selected cities in the Czech Republic, e.g. in Frýdek‑Místek, Olomouc, Vlašim, Benátky nad Jizerou and others. The criterion for selecting the cities has mostly been the construction of nature-friendly modifications to watercourse while seeking to increase the recreational potential of the area. The outcome of this article is to present the original results of the public survey which have subsequently served for a further processing of drafts and measures for recreational potential in the selected locations. The most important finding of this research was the minimum level of selected site citizens’ awareness of revitalization and flood modifications, projects that were realized on watercourses in the cities.

Using Data

This paper explores some Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs – 2 and 12) in agriculture for the Czech Republic and Ukraine. The idea is to find out best practices in implementing SDGs 2 and 12 within the responsible investment framework. For these purposes, benchmarking (comparative analysis) is used. Using data over the period of 2017–2020, a general comparative review of global and national targets of SDGs 2 and 12 in Ukraine and the Czech Republic is provided. The results justify the merely incorporation and compliance of these targets at the national and global levels. The identified problems in achieving SDG 2 and SDG 12 are common for Ukraine and the Czech Republic and relate to unequal access to investment and financial resources. Recommendations and solutions to the most important problems based on the responsible investment instruments are proposed in this paper. The research findings can be useful for regulators (both in agriculture and in the financial market), companies and a wide group of other stakeholders in promoting responsible investment to make more comprehensive progress towards SDG 2 and 12 in Czech Republic and Ukraine by 2030. AcknowledgmentAuthors are grateful to the Czech government for the support provided by the Ministry of Foreign Affairs of the Czech Republic, which allowed this scientific cooperation to start within the project “AgriSciences Platform for Scientific Enhancement of HEIs in Ukraine”.
