Objectives
The student should after completed course
be able to describe how measurement and presentation of different assortments in the forestry are done and which technology and organisation that is available for this
understand the structure of timber price lists and be able to carry out calculation for optimizing wood value
dependent on usage and precision requirement and the size of the object and properties, be able to choose method for and carry out collection and processing of forestry data on stand - or community level,
be able to carry out qualified harvesting planning at object level including cost - and revenue calculations
account for different ecosystems with an emphasis on boreal forests and their dynamic
identify and account for species in forest ecosystems.
Content
This course is built on many of the theories that have been described in earlier courses in the program. some of the things you practice within the course : are used earlier acquired knowledge in forest technique and forest biology to create more detailed harvesting plans. Also knowledge in statistics can be applied here practically in field to create object descriptions for forest stands. In the forest biology part, descriptions of different forest ecosystems with specific focus on boreal forests and species knowledge continue. The knowledge is applied for example practically in site index determination. Apart from lectures the course contains travels to highlight the different preconditions for forestry in Sweden’s different country parts and a high grade of vocational training with a large number of compulsory practical exercises in field.
Grading form
