This module aims to introduce students to a range of survey techniques commonly used in field ecology and nature conservation. The course is designed to give a thorough theoretical and practical grounding in the techniques available. Field surveys and data collection are essential for base-line studies and for appropriate site/habitat planning, management and monitoring.  

Field Survey Techniques can be studied as a stand-alone course and a key course for the Certificate of Higher Education in Field Ecology at Aberystwyth University.
