BOT2263 Ecophysiology of Tropical Plants

 In this module, students will be introduced to historical background of eco-physiology and the destruction of tropical forests. This module will provide a more understanding on different types of tropical forests, their physiognomy and functional structure. Furthermore, it will provide more understanding of environment factors in tropical forests (temperature, light, water, mineral nutrients). It will mainly focus on eco-physiological responses to temperature, light and to drought.
