Information
Aims, contents and method of the course
Aim of this course is to get familiar with food types, diets, and nutritional interactions in the sea. Hypotheses, questions, and experiments on selected organisms will be developed by the students. Appropriate methods will be selected and students get familiar with them. Data will be analyzed and interpreted.
