| Kompetenceområder | |||||||||||||||||||||
| Competences obtained within basic science: - Knowledge of analysing basic growth conditions: climate, topography, soil (texture, nutrients, water) Competences obtained within applied science: - Ability to analyse stands: stand history, composition, structure, successional stage, health condition - Ability to develop visions and define potentials in relation to functions(recreation, production, protection) - Ability to select methods to establish woodlands and to control required stand development - Ability to develop management plans for urban woodlands Competences obtained within Ethics & Values: - awareness of the problems in connection with recreational values and bio ethics in woodland management. | |||||||||||||||||||||
| Kursets målsætning | |||||||||||||||||||||
| The main objective is to provide students with skills for management of woodlands in an urban context. The student will gain knowledge and develop tools to manage woodlands: to analyse stands of trees and their potential to fulfil multifunctional targets - aesthetic/recreational, ecologic/protective, productive/economical, and to make specifications of interventions in order to reach these goals. | |||||||||||||||||||||
| Kursusindhold | |||||||||||||||||||||
| By means of lectures in combination with case studies and excursions the students will: - analyse basic growth conditions in existing and potential woodlands - climate, topography, soil (texture, nutrients, water) - analyse and evaluate existing stands of trees - composition, structure, successional stage, dynamics, health conditions, as well as aesthetic, recreational and biological qualities. - define developmental potential and long-time visions in relation to urban woodland functionality - select and describe methods to establish woodlands and to manage required stand development - develop management plans for urban woodlands in relation to their multifunctial use. The course unites landscape planning and silviculture and is focused on woodland types originating in Northern and Central Europe. | |||||||||||||||||||||
| Undervisningsform | |||||||||||||||||||||
| The course objectives will be achieved through lectures in combination with case studies, excursions and project work. Cross disciplinary group work will act as an educational "back bone" through the course. The project work is dealing with concrete projects for management of existing tree stands. The project work is resulting in written reports with documentation of analysis work, discussion of concepts and specification of proposals. | |||||||||||||||||||||
