teacher profile teaching materials
Methodological skills (Knowing how to perform :) acquire and use experimental data for a rational exploitation of natural resources.
Teaching program:
Biogeochemical cycles with particular reference to the hydrological one and its sustainable management. History on the exploitation of natural living resources: from Gordon's theory to HORIZON 2020 (through sustainable development, the Millennium Ecosystem Assessment and ecosystem services). Principles of urban ecology and sustainable cities: Green City, Smart Economy and Citizen Science. Biomanipulation: from the Frankenstein effect to DAISIE (Delivering Alien Invasive Species Inventories for Europe). Bioturpation. Assessment of local and national socio-economic impacts.

Type of delivery of the course
The course will take place with lectures, fieldwork and computerized classroom exercises with the help of PCs and specific programs (PowerPoint / Excel / EcoSim)Type of evaluation
Test will consist of oral exam. The students will be evaluated for both achievement of correct results and way the answer is carried out.
