This course introduces different approaches to quantify biodiversity, and explains the a biotic (e.g., climate and geological processes) and biotic (e.g., ecology and physiology) factors that regulate biodiversity.

Students will analyze biodiversity with a variety of techniques, including, e.g., genomic, computational, and paleontological approaches, and discuss the societal consequences of biodiversity loss.
