    Formerly Prep for the New Jersey Seal Study. MARS/BIOL 3499 serves as both a course in seal biology and ecology, and/or a preparation for participation in The New Jersey Seal Study (Spring). We will focus on basic biology and adaptations of pinnepeds (seals, sea lions, fur seals and walruses) to aquatic life. Some instruction in field observation of behavior will also be included. Limited field work (TBA) may be included in late fall (1-2 trips). Faculty: C.

    This course offers and guides student research on seals that winter in local New Jersey bays. Students also focus on specific projects in diet, behavior or population biology. In weekly meetings, we will discuss field observations in general and specific projects. Topics include: how to plan research and how to collect, analyze, and report results. Field trips once a week. This course may be offered in sections with a Q2 designation. Faculty: C.
