Introduction to Marine Science (BIOL 1202)
An introduction to the physical, chemical, and biological aspects of marine environments.
Offered every winter term.
No prerequisites.
Movement Ecology (BIOL 3522)
Individuals move for many reasons throughout their life cycle, e.g. to search for a good place to live, to escape predation, to gain access to food, or to find a mate. This course will cover the patterns, causes, and consequences of different types of movement with an emphasis on dispersal and migration. We will consider questions such as: is selection for movement strategies different across different environments? What role will movement play in an increasingly fragmented and changing world? Reading and discussing primary literature will be a key component of this course.
Offered in alternate winter terms.
Prerequisites: BIOL 2585 and at least one university-level statistics course, or permission from instructor
