Information
Aims, contents and method of the course
This course deals with the most important Higher Plants of the Middle European flora concerning their characteristics, their habitats and their role in the most important vegetation types in the surroundings of Vienna.
Assessment and permitted materials
One interim test each per excursion in the field on the topics of the respective excursion (for both interim tests students can use their field notes); written protocol on both (!) excursions: species list sorted by vegetation type plus a short and single characterization per each vegetation type; a corrected version of the protocol may be submitted after a first check, but only if received until the 30. June 2017. The final deadline for finishing this course is 31. July 2017.
