Description
This course builds on the knowledge of plant communities introduced in LAND2151 Landscape Analysis and focuses on plants as components of urban ecological landscape patterns at the landscape and metropolitan scales. It examines the role of plants in various situations, for example, in landscape remediation and regeneration, planning for climate change resilience, serving as ‘green infrastructure’, and protecting riparian and wetland areas. The course involves several excursions to local sites, and students are asked to contribute to the cost of these excursions.
