BIOL 4100 - Management of Forest Ecosystems

An ecosystem course that treats the ecology of forests and consequences of forest processes in natural and managed systems. The class emphasizes the “pattern & process” concept that is the central theme in modern vegetation sciences at increasing scales: from form/function of leaves and other parts of trees through population, community and landscape ecology to the role of forests in the global climate and carbon-cycling. It is recommended to take EVSC 3200 prior to enrollment in this class.
