Description:

Either both BIOL 1100 and 1200 with a minimum grade of C or better or MARS 2201. (Same as MARS 3333.) This course provides a comprehensive study of the diverse and unusual biological communities found in the deep sea. Particular emphasis will be placed on adaptations made by deep-sea organisms to survive the extremely hostile conditions found in the cold, dark waters where no sunlight penetrates and pressure is more than 200 times greater than that experienced by surface organisms. In addition, unique undersea habitats, such as deep-sea hydrothermal vents will be covered in depth. Faculty: T.
