Landscape Ecology II builds on the ecological principles, concepts, and tools introduced as part of the Landscape Ecology I. The course focuses on the broader landscape scale and covers topics such as environmental characteristics of a landscape and a site, native and anthropogenic soils, native vegetation and plant communities, vegetation disturbance and dynamics. The course examines ecological methods and tools for assessing and evaluating landscapes and their vegetation. It also introduces topics relevant to spatial conservation and restoration planning, landscape and green systems planning, climate change, sustainability and resilience. Through the field assignments and case study examples, students critically interpret a site within the contents of the natural environment and a broader landscape scale. Using the case study site, they provide ecological reasonings for conservation and restoration of native vegetation, suggest landscape advances to strengthen connectivity, reduce fragmentation, and restore ecological functions.
