1. Soil ecology: focus of the lecture is the presentation of the most important natural soil functions:
Each of the functions is described in detail, including the properties and processes relevant to the fulfillment of the function. Furthermore, factors are considered that can lead to the impairment of soil functions and how these disturbances can be prevented or reversed in terms of soil protection. For this purpose, the functions of near-natural sites are repeatedly compared with those of more anthropogenically influenced sites. During the excursions, individual topics will be deepened in the field and in exhibitions.
2. Vegetation ecology: The main focus of the lecture is the elaboration of the essential functions of flora and vegetation in ecosystems:
Each of these functions is described in detail and the relevant characteristics and processes that influence them are explained. Since it is mainly human activity that affects the above functions, the thematic focus is on the nature and mode of action of anthropogenic influences (e.g. hemeroby stages, flora and vegetation in settlements, urban-urban comparison of biotic parameters, neophytes in Central European habitats).
