BIOL-UA 18 - Urban Ecology

Institution:

New York University

Subject:

Description:

Urban ecology focuses on the interactions between plants, animals, and the environment in an urban setting. NYU is the perfect place to get outside to observe and analyze these interactions directly. Our laboratory includes the streets, parks, and neighborhoods surrounding NYU, where students can ask questions and explore issues of how we define urban ecosystems, how biodiversity and socioeconomics interact, and how biogeochemical and hydrologic cycles function in an urban ecosystem. This course is intended for highly motivated students who plan to obtain advanced degrees in the area of environmental science.
