BO404 : Synecology

Compulsory

Introduction to the science and areas of interest of the plant community environment (Synecology). plant community "; The size and growth of the plant group.
Knowledge: Distribution of sources in the plant, patterns and strategies of plant survival in different environments.
Knowledge: Factors influencing the distribution of plant species in the natural environment, reasons for the emergence of plant communities, specific relationships, species' plant distribution pattern, and energy efficiency.
Identification of sample collection methods to assess the characteristics of plant communities, methods to class plant communities and methods to estimate and measure vegetation, preparation of environmental spreadsheets
To identify the causes and types of plant succession, learn the bases of plant mingling using aerial and satellite imagery, remote sensing and geographic information systems (GIS)

a. Knowledge and understanding:

The student will learn about the concept of the ecology of the plant community and its areas of interest and the components of the plant community
The student should learn about the patterns and strategies of survival of plants in different environments and the distribution of sources in the plant.
The student should learn about the causes of the emergence of plant communities and the factors influencing the distribution of plant species in the natural environment and the pattern of plant species distribution and energy efficiency.
The student will learn about sampling methods to assess the characteristics and class of plant communities and methods of estimating and measuring vegetation and interpreting tables of environmental data
The student interprets the concept of vegetation succession, its types and vegetation maps

b. Mental Skills:

The student distinguishes the components and areas of interest of the plant community.
To compare survival strategies for plants in different environments
The student will link the factors influencing the distribution of plant species in the natural environment to the emergence of plant communities.
The student compares the results obtained from sampling methods to assess and report on the characteristics of plant communities
The student distinguishes the basics of the cascade phase of vegetation and interprets the vegetation maps.

c. Practical and professional skills:

The student distinguishes the components of the plant community.
The student in different environments distinguishes plant strategies for survival.
The student distinguishes the distribution of plant species in the natural environment.
The student uses the optimal standard area of the standard box in sample collection methods to assess the characteristics of plant communities and measure vegetation.
