The introduction to content regarding relevant EU-Direcctives etc. will be given in March and April: Time slot: 5 to 7p.m. The exact dates will be given in the first week of March.
The field-work part depends on weather conditions, most probably in May and June, with respect to the development of the aquatic flora.
Information
Aims, contents and method of the course
Historical development and general order of contents of the European Water Framework Directive (WFD). Specific aspects of the aquatic vegetation as a biotic quality element. The aquatic ecosystem and the status of macrophytes. Evaluation and classification of macrophyte results. Covering relevant aspects of the Habitats-Directive. Knowledge & experience of macrophyte sites in running and floodplain waters.
Assessment and permitted materials
Theory part: conclusion (pdf document) [30%]. Field work (pdf) [30%]. Final protocol (pdf) [40%].
For each of the three performance checks a maximum of 4 points is possible.
Final protocol: this protocol comprises the results of the three parts and will be sent to the teacher for preparing the final grade.Documents for the perfomance control as well as the final protocol (Text, Tables and/or Diagrams, etc.) have to be written in one's own, personal wording.'Open-Book'-conditions: an example of an earlier protocoll will be prepared for the students as a guideline for the content of the final protocol.Writing rules: Times New Roman 12 pt for all text. For tables and diagrams/graphs/numbers and/or letters; minimum size 8 pt.For each of the three contents (aims, content, method/s) 4 points are maximum per content of the performance control.
Final protocol: compilation of the 3 contents (pdf), regarding the order of contents (!). Send this Performance Control document via eMail: georg.janauer@univie.ac.at
