  • BI 391: Biology of Whales

    3.00 Credits
    Pine Manor College - Closed

    This upper-level course examines the biology and conservation of cetaceans, whales, dolphins, and porpoises. Topics include physiology, population biology and life history analysis, molecular genetics, morphology, distributional ecology, and social behavior. Early lectures focus on the biology of cetaceans and how they are adapted to the marine environment. Later lectures use case studies to review how biological principles can be applied to the conservation of a wide range of cetacean species. Spring. Prerequisites: BI 101,BI 102, and two upper- level biology courses. Group: III.

  • BI 392: Biology of Fishes

    3.00 Credits
    Pine Manor College - Closed

    This upper-level survey course covers the evolution, systematics, anatomy, physiology, and behavior of freshwater, marine, and anadromous fishes from temperate to tropical environments. The course also examines the diversity of fish interactions in aquatic communities: predator/prey relationships, host/symbiont interactions, and the various roles of fishes as herbivores. Study of inter- and intra-specific predatory-prey relationships among fish populations in aquatic communities integrates principles of ecology. Spring. Prerequisites: One year of general biology and two upper-level biology courses. Group: III.

    This course presents a survey of the coastal environment, its physical characteristics, natural system economic uses, and development pressures. Lectures examine strategies formulated in the United States for land and water management in the coastal zone. The roles of federal, state, and local government, environmental groups, and resource users are also explored. Finally, by comparing coastal zone management problems in the United States with those elsewhere in the world, students gain a global perspective. Spring. Prerequisites: BI 101, BI 102 plus two courses in biology or chemistry. Group: III.
