Workgroups autumn seminar

11.11.2020

The joint seminar of Macroecology and Landscape Biodiversity workgroups was held on 11th November in Tartu Lodjakoda. The focus of this seminar were evolutionary and phylogenetic questions. We were happy to welcome two guest speakers - Marina Semchenko from the Plant Ecology Lab talked about plant evolutionary ecology and Robert Davis from the Zoology department introduced the current trends in phylogenetic analyses. During the seminar day, we heard many exciting presentations also from the members of both workgroups. In the evening we had a chance to explore the Lodjakoda boathouse and learn how traditional barges were built.
