Course objectives

At the end of this course student should be able to:
evaluate basic mechanisms and factors underlying plant biomass production in biosphere;
explain the processes of carbon fixation and carbon loss in plants;
relate the size of production and environmental factors;
analyze and predict of plant production based on mathematical modeling.

Learning outcomes

The students should get a knowledge on principals of productional processes in plants. The students should be able to explain the processes of carbon fixation and carbon loss in plants and relate the extent of production and environmental factors. They should also analyze and predict of plant production based on mathematical modeling.
