Ädellövskog - historia, ekologi och skötsel

Hur har våra lövskogar i norra och centrala Europa utvecklats – och hur kan vi förvalta dem på ett hållbart sätt i framtiden? Den här kursen ger en bred och fördjupad förståelse för tempererade lövskogsekosystem, med fokus på skogshistoria, ekologi, biologisk mångfald och moderna skötselstrategier.


Du studerar dynamiken i lövskogar, som störningar, succession och påverkan från både människa och klimat. Kursen behandlar även skogsbrukets roll för bevarandet av biologisk mångfald, restaurering av livsmiljöer och omställning från gran- till lövskog. Genom föreläsningar, exkursioner och praktiska uppgifter får du analysera aktuella frågor kring skogsskötsel, klimatförändringar och samhällspåverkan.


Kursen passar dig som vill förstå de komplexa samband som formar våra lövskogar – i dåtid, nutid och framtid.
