Course Goal

This course aims to provide information about the movement of plant nutrients at different levels, starting from the plant scale to the global scale, to the candidate scientists who carry out their doctoral studies in the fields of Soil Science and Plant Nutrition, Crop Production.

Course Content

Climate dependence of plant nutrient movements at different levels (within the plant, field conditions, farm environment, regional, terrestrial, continental and global), disruptions caused by natural and anthropogenic causes, consequences of disturbed material flow, possible adaptation mechanisms of plants (flora) and fauna, and what to do to fix this problem.

Course Precondition

No prerequisites

Resources

Lecture notes Mineral Nutrition of Higher Plants The Nature and Properties of Soils

Notes

No other course resources
