| Description: | Ecologists claim there are more than 840 spiders per square meter of pasture and that water voles are our most catastrophically endangered small mammal. But how can they actually confirm this? This course outlines 1) the practical science of ecology; 2) the survey techniques used to count species and understand how different habitats, plant and animal communities work; and 3) how this information prioritises species conservation programmes. |
