This beginner course is designed to give ecologists the foundational botanical skills that are essential for accurate habitat surveying using UKHab and NVC. You will learn useful techniques to help you identify key indicator species of different habitats, including wildflowers and grasses.
Tutor: Henry Miller
I am a botanist working at Kew Gardens on projects relating to the conservation of tropical plants in Uganda as well as producing extinction risk assessments for Ethiopian species. Outside of work I am involved in the Botanical Society of Britain and Ireland and the London Natural History Society, I volunteer with these organisations to record and identify a wide range of plants.
