International Graduate Course

Ecophysiology of Photosynthesis:  Theoretical and Practical Approaches

(January 4 to 15, 2010)

This intensive theoretical–field course for graduate students spans two weeks, including lectures, seminars, and practical classes in the field. The course will utilize the Katalapi Park facilities to develop lectures, training in plant ecophysiological methods, and field sampling activities. The field course is designed as an intensive immersion experience, and demands stamina, endurance, social skills and patience. We will study topics related to ecophysiology of photosynthesis in terrestrial plants.
