  • 00L 217: Ecology and Systematics of Diatoms

    4.00 Credits
    University of Iowa

    This course is an intensive, field-oriented class appropriate for advanced undergraduate students, graduate students, and post graduate workers in ecology, geology, environmental sciences, and diatom taxonomy. We will immerse ourselves in the diverse aquatic habitats and fossil deposits of the Upper Midwest to observe freshwater diatoms. Students will learn techniques in diatom collection, preparation, and identification. Lectures will cover taxonomy, systematics and biogeography of most freshwater genera. Students will complete individual voucher collections using modern database techniques. Students are encouraged to bring research materials. The use of diatoms in ecological and paleoecological research will be discussed. There is a $40 fee for laboratory supplies and a $40 fee for field trips. Instructors: Mark Edlund, St. Croix Watershed Research Station, Science Museum of Minnesota, and Sarah Spaulding, U.S. Geological Survey, Boulder, CO Scholarships are available through Iowa Lakeside Lab (deadline April 15) including The Charlie Reimer Scholarship, which is awarded to one student annually based on scholastic merit. For more information see the scholarship section of the Lakeside Lab web site. The Hannah T. Croasdale Fellowship is available through the Phycological Society of America (deadline March 1): www.psaalgae.org/website/opportunities/grants/croasdale.html The John C. Kingston Diatom Fellowship was established in 2004 by colleagues, friends and family to honor John's memory and to recognize the contributions he made to the study of diatoms at Iowa Lakeside Laboratory. Each summer, an award is made to one advanced student or researcher to serve as teaching assistant for the Ecology and Systematics of Diatoms course and to engage in a research project. The fellowship includes a stipend and room and board at Lakeside and is available to domestic and international students, at the graduate level or advanced undergraduate level. Applicants should submit a cover letter, CV, and statement of teaching, research, and career interests to the Lakeside Lab Executive Director by email (peter-vanderlinden@uiowa.edu) by February 28, 2011. The JC Kingston Fellowship is administered by the Friends of Lakeside Lab. NOTE: Tuition for this course is assessed separately and is billed in addition to tuition and fees for your other courses.
