Forest Change Ecology and Research Fundamentals
'This course addresses how forests respond to disturbances such as wildfire and impact of climate change, with a focus on regeneration and nutrient dynamics. Students will engage in hands-on experiments, complemented by a workshop in experimental design. Alongside lectures on disturbance ecology, scientific communication, and statistical tools, the course provides both theoretical foundations and practical research experience in forest ecology.'
Isotopes in Environmental Science
The course offers a broad introduction to the use of stable isotopes (SI) in Environmental Science.
Basic knowledge on terminology, fractionation processes, isotope mixing, instrumentation and standards. The topics covered are plants and photosynthesis; atmosphere and greenhouse gases; soil nutrient cycles; water isotopes in the landscape.

Environmental Soil Science and Plant Nutrition
The module provides basic knowledge of soil chemistry and plant nutrition. It covers chemical properties and processes in the soil—such as sorption, redox reactions, and water balance—as well as the uptake, availability, and control of plant nutrients. Practical exercises, field trips, and seminars deepen the understanding of ecological relationships and bioremediation approaches to pollutant remediation.
