At the end of the course, participants will have an advanced understanding of biotic interactions and how they change in a globalized world. They will be familiar with classic ecological knowledge and present changes in the Anthropocene. close

This lecture combines basic ecological research questions with presently pressing questions in the Anthropocene. The main focus will be on biotic interactions (predator-prey interactions, competition, host-parasite interactions, mutualisms, etc.) and how they change in a globalized world. Interdisciplinary questions from e.g. ecological economics will be covered as well. close
