Section Title:
Ecohydrology & Water Managemnt
Section Info:
This advanced course will focus on the process understanding of ecohydrology (e.g. physical hydrology, plant water use and stress response), the societal applications of ecohydrology (e.g. irrigation, drought monitoring, water sustainability for ecosystem), and the start-of-the-art methodology to study ecohydrology (e.g. satellite, numerical modeling). The targeted students are upper class undergraduates who have interests in gaining an ecohydrology background and knowing its broader applications, or early-stage graduate students who aim to adopt ecohydrology knowledge in their research.

Section Title:
Valuing Nature
Section Info:
This course will review current theories and state-of-the art methods related to subjective interpretations of human decisions in natural resource management contexts. Students will learn how to transfer theoretical knowledge into practice, as well as explore how values, concepts of place (e.g., attachment, place meanings), and environmental attitudes shape behavior. Discussion will be structured around three topics of fisheries management, protected areas and conservation, and energy transitions toward sustainability.
