MODELING COMPETITION AND SITE INTERACTION EFFECTS ON SEEDLING PHYSIOLOGY, GROWTH AND SURVIVAL

Catalog description

Focuses on understanding and modeling the interactions between planted seedling physiology, site conditions and competing vegetation. Includes field trips to study sites, exposing the students to new advances in reforestation research and ecophysiological modeling, with a main emphasis on understanding the interactions between site conditions, conifer seedling physiology, and early-seral vegetation abundance and composition.
