Contenuti:
The course, targeted to professionals, researchers and students in the forestry sector, aims at learning the basics of forest dynamics simulation models.

These tools are widely used in Central Europe and the United States to visualize current stand conditions, simulate stand development for 20-100 years, and model the effect of silvicultural management, disturbances or other user-defi ned events. Hence, they effectively support planning and silvicultural decisions, and serve as visual aids in communicating management strategies to stakeholders. Course teachers will be scientists from Italian, American and German universities. The training will be based entirely on practical activities and hands-on exercises, carried out individually or in groups.
