Daisy PhD Course 2026

31 August – 4 September 2026, Copenhagen

Registration is now open for the Short Course on DAISY, a one‑week introduction to the 1D/2D agro‑ecological simulation model DAISY. The course takes place on campus at Frederiksberg in the last week of August and combines concise lectures with hands‑on group exercises.

During the course, participants will learn how to:

  • prepare and structure input data

  • extract, analyse, and visualise model output
  • apply DAISY to their own scientific questions

The course covers key processes such as matrix and biopore water flow, solute transport, heat transfer, soil organic matter turnover, soil–vegetation–atmosphere interactions, crop modelling, and recent model developments including N₂O, PFAS, and the Python extension.

  • 2 ECTS: attendance only during the one‑week course
