BIOL 348 Tropical Marine Ecology
Through travel to distant field sites, students will conduct a first-hand examination of the physical, chemical and biological characteristics and processes of a selected ecosystem. Students will be involved in intensive fieldwork, readings and discussion that will focus on interactions between the system’s biota and the physical and chemical parameters unique to the geographic area under examination. Comparisons will be drawn between the ecosystem under study and temperate systems more likely to be encountered near the Hood campus.
