| Inhalt | The block course in Ecology and Conservation Biology is offered by the research groups “Ecology”, “Plant Ecology and Evolution” and “Geoecology” of the Department of Environmental Sciences, and the research groups “Entomology” of the Natural History Museum and the “Alpine environment and natural hazards” of the SLF Davos. The course takes place during the second part of the spring term and lasts for 6 weeks. The course includes theoretical and practical parts with lectures, tutorials, excursions and independent research projects. Students will develop and expand their knowledge on ecology, palaeoecology and conservation biology. The timing of the course, during spring semester, is well suited for excursions and field projects. Lectures and lab work take place mainly at Schönbeinstrasse 6 and in the Bernoullianum. In week 5 (21.-24.5.2024) there will be a 4-day field course with overnight stay in Beatenberg, Berner Oberland. Expected costs to be borne by the students: Travel there and back, picnic on the first day, drinks. |
| Lernziele | The block course covers the following themes: What determines the coexistence of organisms? How do they react to abiotic and biotic changes, and particularly also anthropogenic influences? What determines the abundance of organisms and determines whether populations are endangered? - Subjects of part A (week 1-2): palaeoecology, long-term ecosystem change, bioindication and environmental reconstruction based on biotic indicators, ecology of running waters and springs. - Subjects of part B (week 3-4): thermal ecology - from genes to ecosystems, insect diversity, plant-pollinator interactions, evolutionary ecology, conservation, conservation genetics. - Subjects of part C (week 5-6): vegetation ecology, abiotic environmental conditions, species distributions and their limits, ecological niche, species abundance, richness and diversity, environmental change. Students will acquire general biological knowledge with an emphasis on ecology and conservation, learn how to design and execute a scientific research project, collect and analyze data that they have collected (using R software), search and evaluate published scientific literature, and present their own results orally and in writing. |
| Bemerkungen | For biology students only Compulsory attendance The course will be held entirely in English. |
