Ecosystem services provided by wetlands: Anthropogenic impacts and Environmental chemistry

20/04/2016

Advanced Workshop

May 2-6, 2016

This one‐week post‐graduate workshop aims to provide knowledge on the environmental biogeochemical processes supporting the Ecosystem Services (ES) provided by wetlands. Moreover, emphasis will be put on ES assessment endpoints for Ecological Risk Assessment (ERA) and also on wetlands management and restoration. The course is addressed to PhD students with a background in Biology, Natural and Environmental Sciences, Environmental Chemistry, Environmental Engineering or Ecology.

Coordinator: Ana I. Lillebø (DBio & CESAM)

Lecture topics
• Types of wetlands, ES & Human well­‐being
• Biogeochemical processes supporting wetland ES
• ES assessment endpoints for Ecological Risk Assessment
• Multiple stressors affecting wetlands ES
• Wetlands management and restoration
