BIOL 1100 and BIOL 2100 or ENVL 2100 and ENVL 2200. Wildlife biologists and managers face many challenges in meeting the demands and expectations of society while maintaining ecological integrity. From threatened and endangered species to 'nuisance' status, humans' actions, values and attitudes affect wildlife. Areas of emphasis include wildlife interactions with their abiotic and biotic environment; ways humans impact and perceive wildlife, and implications for management decisions.

ENVL 2100, ENVL 2105, ENVL 2200, ENVL 2205. Approaches and techniques for quantifying, describing and predicting the behavior of natural systems. The focus will be mainly on developing and applying computer models of aquatic systems such as rivers, estuaries and lakes but some terrestrial systems will also be examined. Model development as well as model calibration and verification, are discussed. A significant semester project on a topic of interest to the student is involved. Faculty: J.

This class looks at the pollution of various environmental media, including air, soil and water. Topics to be discussed include: release of pollutants by various natural and anthropogenic processes, the transport and residence time of pollutants in the three environmental media (soil, air and water), and potential human health and ecosystem impact. The most important federal environmental regulations and how they are used in compliance monitoring and the clean-up of contaminated sites will be discussed.

ENVL 2100 and ENVL 2200 or GEOL 2100. (Same as GEOL 3430) Geologic processes sculpt the earth's surface to produce landforms (e.g. mountains, rivers, glacial features, caves, deserts, and coasts. The recognition of these landforms in the field, on topographic maps and on remote sensing imagery is covered in this course. Recognition of the unique set of processes by which they formed. The hazards of human use of particular landforms are assessed through recognition of landforms and the processes that made them. Field trips and lab. Offered Spring odd numbered years. Faculty: R.

Not open to freshmen. Permission of instructor. Provides basic education and training in geographical information Systems (GIS) for students who have stronger background in other field(s) and want to learn the basic skill of GIS for standard applications. The class covers overview of GIS principles and concepts, important applications, knowledge of data structures, acquisition, formatting, database creation, and standard GIS applications in a practical way. Students who have taken the class are expected to know: what GIS is, what GIS does, when GIS is needed, and how to create a GIS database to answer questions about spatial variations of geographic phenomena. This is a hybrid course using WebCT. Faculty: W.
