Course content
|
Content of practicals: Talks of selected invited speakers, combined with talks of registered students, followed by discussions. The course is primarily for the international Quantitative Ecology module, it is expected that the international students introduce themselves and their own research. We think we can secure presentations of prominent ecologists to present their results and to lead the discussion.
