BIOL 067L KS - Conservation Ecology and Management

Basic ecological principles are considered in order to understand how the ecosystem is structured to accomplish its life-supporting functions. Such background allows discussion of how living, natural resources (e.g., agriculture, grasslands, forests, lakes) can be impacted and manipulated or restored (management) on a sustained yield basis (conservation). Several field trips allow observation of ecosystem problems and practices. This course has a laboratory fee.
