BIOL302
- Applied Ecology
This course is intended to reacquaint students with a selection of the physical and ecological principles that structure natural ecosystems, investigate how humans have altered natural ecosystems by failing to understand these principles and show (or suggest) how natural ecosystems can be returned to "health" by application of these same physical and ecologycal principles. The objective of the course is not to provide students with material to be memorized, but rather to give an appreciation of how disruption of physical and ecological factors and processes lead to environmental problems, and how a proper understanding of the factors and processes can assist in remedying the situation. The role of societal features (human needs and desires, political realities, etc.) in both causing the problems and remedying them will be a consistent, though low-level theme.
