Information
Aims, contents and method of the course
Assessment and permitted materials
Mode of examination: Written exam with two questions out of the terrestrial, one of the limnological and one of the marinebiological parts. Several examination dates. The final mark is based on the average of the gradings of each question, where values exactly between to marks will be round up.
Minimum requirements and assessment criteria
Written exam: The four exam questions will be evaluated separately along the usual five-part grading (1 = very good, 5 = insufficient). The final evaluation results from the average of the four grades, where intermediate values will be rounded up from 0.5 (e.g. 2.5 = 3).

Terrestrial habitats: classification, zone of tropical forests, substropical ecosystems with deciduous forests, grasslands and deserts, mediterranean ecosystems, warm and cool temperate zones with evergreen and deciduous forests, montane and boral forests, tundra and polar deserts.
Limnic habitats: their role for the global water budget, history and evolution, principles of classification and systemic features of limnic ecosystems, chemical characteristics with respect to the geological underground, the features of the catchment area and the contribution of anthropogenic pollutants, importance of limnic systems with regard to landscape ecology in general, possibilities for restauration measures.The lecture aims to build awareness of the global climate and ecozones, terrestrially as well as in freshwater and marine environments. Raising awareness of the abiotic requirements, the biotic composition of the biosphere and its threats appears to be essential for understanding the major ecological relationships in the context of a growing human impact.
