John, Last July, Enrique Reyes from East Carolina University taught a two weeks course about ecological modelling in Spain. You may ask him:

This course is taught by Sven Jorgensen, editor of Ecological Modeling. This is a link to the course contents: http://www.limnetica.com/document/Ecological_Modelling_2008.pdf This course results from an agreement between the AIL (Asociación Ibérica de Limnología) y AEET (Asociación Española de Ecología Terrestre) so you may contact this organizations for more information: AEET: [email protected] AIL: [email protected] Both courses are introductory to ecological modelling and have a main focus on ecosystem dynamics and theoretical ecology.
