Marine Ecosystem Dynamics
To counteract known and future environmental problems, knowledge of ecological interactions and effects of human activity is needed.
The course provides a broad overview of the theoretical, practical and applied aspects of the ecosystem dynamics in the marine environment. This is done in favor of a greater focus on theoretical and practical background of ecosystem dynamics, marine environmental monitoring and practical applications.
An overarching goal is to provide insights about the theoretical frameworks and the research processes that are used to understand and manage marine ecosystems.
