Microbiology of ecosystems (Microbial ecology) provides a general introduction to the diversity and ecological roles of microorganisms (bacteria, archaea and microeukaryotes) in natural and artificial environments with special emphasis on microbial biological interactions and habitat adaptations in the light of global change.

Syllabus:
1. Introductory lecture: historical overview of research in microbial ecology
2. Taxonomy and systematics of different groups of microorganisms
3. Ecological interactions between prokaryotes and microeukaryotes (interspecific and intraspecific interactions; plant and animal organisms as hosts)
4. Marine ecosystems
5. Freshwater ecosystems
6. Soil ecosystems
7. Forest ecosystems
8. Extremophile habitats
9. Urban and built ecosystems
