Ecosystem Restoration and Climate Change

About

The course on "Ecology and Climate" change will focus on the interactions of climate change, soils and water in headwatersheds. Climate change will change soil processes quite drastically. As a result, aquatic ecosystems' resilience is also affected because these are closely linked to soils. As an interdisciplinary project the summer school will deal with ecological, socio-cultural and economic aspects of climate change. There will be an important hands-on component where we will learn field and lab methods. The summer school will be organised jointly with the Eco2adapt and Microeco projects as a collaboration of the Universities of Eastern Finland, the University of Belgrade (Serbia), CATIE (Costa-Rica) and the Zhejiang A&F (China) Universities.
