-
3.00 Credits
Three hours laboratory per week. Basic and applied techniques and research methods to understand various marine science related topics. These techniques will be learned and utilized during the course while completing an appropriate research project. May be repeated for credit when topics change, but no more than six credits count towards degree requirement.
-
3.00 Credits
Three hours lecture per week. Course will examine a number of emerging ocean and coastal policy issues. Among the policy issues are those relating to oil, gas, and alternative energy facilities and equipment in coastal or ocean waters, the privatization of public waters, the impact of rising sea levels upon ocean beaches and estuarine shorelines, beach nourishment and shoreline protection, development setback lines, the use of ocean outfalls to dispose of wastewater, and the future role of the Coastal Resources Commission. Course will examine these and other emerging policy issues and the governing state and federal legal regime.
-
3.00 Credits
Three hours lecture per week. Course is a survey of marine plants including phytoplanton, algae, and coastal plants. The course will focus on the ecology, diversity, and physiology of these organisms, and ways to study the different groups in the field.
-
3.00 Credits
Three hours lecture per week. Principles of instruments used in oceanographic research, introduction to electronics, and applications of instrument measurements will be examined. Emphasis will vary from CTD profilers, current meters, radiometry and chemical measurement. Course will include introduction to using observational oceanographic data, with hands-on practice in scientific programming for data analysis.
-
3.00 Credits
Three hours lecture per week Course will examine the geologic history and ecology of the St. Johns River, both economically and environmentally, its estuaries and upland regions. From the early settlers along the St. Johns to the modern port, we'll look back with some detail into the why's and how's of their impact on the St. Johns River. We will also examine how nature influenced the development of northeast Florida.
-
3.00 Credits
Three hours lecture per week. Course will examine the mathematical methods for the analysis of biological, chemical, and physical data from the marine environment - experimental design, parametric non-parametric and re-sampling statistics. Basic design of experiments and field sampling, including random and systemic sampling, subsampling, survey techniques, single and multifactor experiments using randomized, nested, and blocked experimental designs and data analyses.
-
3.00 Credits
Three hours lecture per week. The course provides an introduction to the principles upon which viable aquaculture practices are based. Different culture systems, levels of intensity and environments will be discussed. Lectures will contain background notes and information on specific topics like water quality, nutrition, disease and agri-business. Reference data, exercises and peer reviewed bibliographical sources will be provided as part of the required readings in this applied ecology course.
-
1.00 - 6.00 Credits
One to six lecture and/or laboratory per week. Course will be on selected topics and current issues in marine science. Course can be offered on an as-needed basis for topics not included in the curriculum when faculty availability or opportunities occur. May be repeated for credit when topics change, but no more than six credits count towards degree requirement.
