Note: The lecture forms a module together with the course 'Landscape Planning - seminar'. It is compulsory to take the entire module. The module is primarily intended for students of the M.Sc. programme Sustainable Resource Management, though students from other programmes are also welcome. As one component of the module is designed as an interactive seminar, the number of participants may need to be limited. Should this become necessary, priority will be given to SRM students who have selected 'Landscape Management' as their Science Topic.
