Course Goal / Objective
It is aimed to recognise plant sociology research methods, identify/classify landscapes and make naturalness assessment. In this context, it is also expected to use the plant community indicator.
Course Content
Basic concepts of plant science, plant systematics / taxonomy syn. Vegetation units, formations, plant associations and communities. Methodological approaches for the analysis of vegetation. Relationships between plant communities and habitat conditions: Plant life forms. Human impact of the spread of plant communities: Synantropik flora and vegetation.
Course Precondition
