About the Course

The course provides advanced knowledge of how plant physiology and processes in their ecosystems respond to various external factors, as well as how plants interact with their environment to take up, use and circulate resources like coal, water and nutrients. These responses and processes are taken into account particularly in relation to global environmental changes (temperature, carbon dioxide concentration, precipitation, nitrogen deposition, etc.). The course is interactive and includes, in addition to lectures, practical work in the field and in the lab, theoretical modeling exercises, individual presentations and seminars. All parts of the course are compulsory except from the lectures, since the compulsory parts develop the skills and attitudes that are part of the learning outcomes in a way that is not possible through self-study. The course consists of about 10 weeks of full-time study and is divided into two parts: Theory 9 hp and project 6 cr.
