Comment/Description

Learning outcome, core skills:
Tropical Dendrology objectives: Assessment of ecological characteristics and management of major tree species. Students will learn how to give an oral presentation.

Contents:
In the tropical rainforest 50-60.000 tree species occur. Of course, it is not possible to know all of them including their ecological characteristics. However, in the course on Tropical dendrology we will present important families to which tropical trees belong. Furthermore, we will elaborate physiological principles with respect to water, carbon and nutrient turnover by trees, and focus on the possibilities of a functional classification of trees. For selected tree species we will analyse the ecological characteristics, management options and the use in more detail.
