Student projects
There are in the Øle Å project and the other research projects in Poulsker and Bodilsker Planations plenty of opportunities for student assignments and thesis subjects. Intensive monitoring is performed, and various aspects of the ecosystem can thus be in focus, ranging from specific biogeochemical processes, over vegetation ecology to planning of future restoration projects. There are opportunities for students in natural resource management, nature management, forestry, biology, geography etc.
