Knowledge
The participants learn about important concepts and current research in both fundamental and applied landscape ecology. They understand mechanisms determining the dynamics of single species in spatially and temporally variable environments (landscapes). In particular, they learn about basic concepts of population dynamics at various scales, ranging from key processes in the life history of individuals to spatial population dynamics in heterogeneous landscapes, range dynamics and geographic distributions of species.
Skills
The participants learn to statistically analyse and present data in the open-source software R. They are able to search, comprehend and critically discuss scientific publications and to summarize scientific findings both orally and in writing. - Schlüsselkompetenzen:
-
The students know about key topics in current landscape ecology. They advance their oral and written skills for presenting scientific findings and concepts.
- Anmerkungen:
-
The module comprises a five day excursion outside Hohenheim that typically takes place in the second week of the block module.
Due to space constraints in the course room and during the excursion the number of participants in this module is limited to 20. Registration via ILIAS is thus compulsory.
Dieses Modul entspricht für Studierende, die im SS 14 das Studium der Agrarbiologie, Fachrichtung Landschaftsökologie, aufgenommen haben, dem Modul 3201-470 "Landschaftsökologie" - eLearning:
