Yu, Z	Part of Term: 1 Date Range: 01/25/21-05/05/21 Credit: 3 hours Section Title: Aquatic Biogeochemistry Section Info: INCLUDES REQUIRED FIELD TRIPS TO STUDY SITES ON OR NEAR CAMPUS. This course examines the transport, transformation, and retention of carbon and nutrients in aquatic ecosystems across the continuum from streams to coastal waters. In addition, the course explores how disturbance (e.g., agriculture and urbanization) and global change drivers (e.g. land use change, atmospheric deposition, and climate change) alter nutrient and carbon cycling in the context of watersheds. Emphasis will be placed on the application of biogeochemical principals for improving water quality as well as biogeochemical approaches for aquatic ecosystem protection. These ideas will be explored by a combination of lectures, literature reading, field trips to study sites, and final project.

Curtis Quick, J	Part of Term: 1 Date Range: 01/25/21-05/05/21 Credit: 3 hours Section Title: Marine & Coastal Conserv Mgmt Section Info: This course will explore the importance of our marine and coastal resources and the challenges in sustainable exploitation. The impacts humans have on these systems will be examined across scales, species to ecosystems,with a particular emphasis on tropical species and locations. We will examine a range of anthropogenic impacts and conservation and marine spatial planning strategies used to mitigate them. Throughout the course we will critically assess the data and tools available to managers of these systems.We will explore the management actions from the view point of multiple stakeholder groups.The students will have the opportunity for discussion and debate on a range of topical marine and coastal issues.
