The objective of these meetings is to publicize the research activities at the stations through a series of activities of science and learning of the resources of the natural environment in which they are located, as well as raise awareness of the need to conserve Mediterraneanbiodiversity. Scientific stations that will be the course are:
Management of natural areas plays a major role in the socio-economical and political agenda as society demands for a sustainable use of natural resources and efficient management of natural heritage grows. European Framework Directives on Natural Resources, Water, and Protection of Habitats and Natural Areas are good examples of this. The implementation of these Directives requires qualified professionals with a vast understanding on the functioning of natural systems, and a strong expertise of environmental issues.
Our M.Sc. on Management and Restoration of Natural Areas will provide suitable preparation on the natural heritage, correcting measures to attain the best ecosystem state, optimum management of natural resources, and available biotechnological tools to bring the best solutions to current and future environmental problems.
This M.Sc. will provide the means:
- To design, carry out and pilot restoration projects.
- To manage protected areas.
- To develop sound research on ecosystem conservation and restoration.
The M.Sc is imparted by well recognized experts with strong links to public and private sectors in Spain and worldwide.
Course carried out by tone Belda and Leticia Asensio on localization, identification use and applications of fungi and mushrooms. 22 and 23 October 2011.
By Prof. Pedro Alfaro, Department of Earth Sciences and Environment. September 17 and 18, 2011.
Programme of environmental volunteers in the parks of Serra Mariola and Font Roja. University students volunteers, will collaborate on several projects of public use, management and research of both natural parks during August.
On 5 June, World Environment day, Font Roja Natura entities wil organize a playful journey in a magic train to the forest of the Font Roja. A landscape of legends, tales, imagination and enjoyment of nature.
Informative workshop introduction to morphological, physiological adaptations, strategies of pollination and dissemination of the plants of the Park. on June 25, 2011.
Workshop on introduction to the identification of amphibians. It includes theoretical and practical sessions on biology and descriptive traits, decline, threats and conservation. It includes field trips to the P.N: Serra de Mariola and evening session of identification of songs. June 18, 2011.
This course aims to deep in the knowledge derived from scientific research that can be applied using different techniques and contrasting experiences to improve outcomes in terrestrial ecosystems and especially the semi-arid Mediterranean. Institutions participating in this course (Department of Environment, Water, Urbanism and Housing, CEAM and University of Alicante) have been pioneers in generating knowledge in this area and have developed a solid scientific basis.
Directed to environmental professionals and technicians of the government, members of environmental NGOs as well as university students in biology, environmental science and environmental education studies, and interested in ecological restoration.
The inscription (30 eur) includes support, documentation, meals and transportation from the AU. Interested in attending can manage accommodation in the University Village near the University of Alicante, with excellent price/quality ratio ( http://www.villauniversitaria.com/ ).

The Paraje Natural Municipal Racó de Sant Bonaventura - Canalons was declared by agreement of 8 February 2002 of the Valencian Government, in the municipality of Alcoy. In this place are combined perfectly two basic premises necessary for the Declaration of a Natural Protected Area: it presents unique ecosystems that need to be preserved, and a high public use.
The workshop is the simulation of the main activities carried out in the nursery of the Natural Park , whose purpose is to produce plant species for reforestation in areas of Mediterranean forest.
Taught Course "Description and assessment of ecosystems" in the UA ECFRN. This is a subject with a high practical content and applied, in which students acquire skills in the diagnosis of ecosystems. Various practical activities are carried out in the forest and other ecosystems in the Font Roja.
In the Natural Park of Font Roja and Serra de Mariola. The volunteers will work on various projects for public use, management and research of both natural parks, doing the following activities:
