Dinâmica de Populações

The main objective of this curricular unit (UC) is to provide the students with knowledge that allows them to:
- Understand the population growth models for isolated or interacting populations;
- Analyze the results of simulations under different scenarios defined by model parameters;
- Interpret results from different simulations;
- Critically evaluate and discuss related literature.

Topics studied and tools used in this UC will allow the student to acquire skills useful for future work in the area of conservation and sustainable management of biological communities and ecosystems.
