Course objectives
The course consists of selected topics of fluvial systems ecology presented in form of case studies. Every theme is introduced by overview of concepts, existing knowledge and methods. Statistical analyses and interpretation of results is demonstrated on real data. The course is organized in four topic blocks: i) GIS a geostatistics, ii) hydromorphology, iii) fluvial habitats and macroinvertebrate communities, iv) assessment and conservation of fluvial systems
Syllabus
  • 1) Introduction (structure of lectures, literature, theories, study design) 2) GIS tools for acquiring, evaluation and presentation of ecological data 3) Analysis of model catchment 4) Multiple-scale analysis of results 5) Ecohydrology and hydromorphological surveys 6) Interactions between aquatic, riparian and terrestrial ecosystems 7) Habitats of benthic invertebrates 8) Structure of benthic communities and populations 9) Ecological interactions in macroinvertebrate communities 10) Analyses of spatial and temporal distributions 11) Application of research results in assessment of anthropogenic impacts 12) Assessment of ecological status and restoration efficiency
