Minimum requirements and assessment criteria
The students will be introduced to basic modelling techniques as used in ecology and related fields. The presented techniques are studied on the basis of specific ecological problems. Different approaches for a standing question are illustrated. We will be studying process-oriented models (deterministic, stochastic, discrete, continous and space-explicit), as well as statistic-descriptive models (networks, regression-based).
