Abstract:
AFEC-X 2011 Field Biology Course was held from from 22 October to 3
December 2011, and was the third such course to be organised by PFS-TropAsia
after launching the program in 2009. The aim of these courses is to provide highlevel
training in the biology and conservation of forests in tropical Asia. The
courses are aimed at entry-level graduate students from the region, who are at the
start of their thesis research or professional careers in forest biology. During the
course topics in forest biology are taught by a wide range of experts in tropical
forest science. There is also a strong emphasis on the development of independent
research projects. Students are exposed to different ecosystem types through
course excursions.
