摘要
This paper presents four different examples of practical research methods in a form of full-day field exercises for undergraduate students, directly related to the Geography and Landscape Ecology degree. Following methods are introduced: (1) Geological survey of the river valley, (2) River corridor survey and aquatic biota monitoring, (3) The evaluation of spatial and temporal changes in the landscape structure and (4) Phytosociological vegetation assessment and succession processes in the River Nutria catchment, Lubietova, Slovakia. Research work, undertaken as a part of this field course, is divided into two stages: 1. stage includes four days of field data collection (students are divided into four groups), 2. stage involves desktop data analysis and processing and the production of research outcomes (data files, maps, statistical assessment etc.). Some examples are presented in this paper.
