4.00 Credits
Basic principles of radiation and remote sensing. Techniques for ground-based measurements of reflected and emitted radiation, as well as ancillary data collection to support airborne and satellite remote sensing studies in agriculture, geography, and hydrology. Prerequisite/Restriction: MATH 1100 or MATH 1210; and PHYS 2110 or PHYS 2210. Cross-listed as: WATS 6003
-
3.00 Credits
This course introduces fluvial geomorphology through the reading of landscapes and riverscapes. Students learn to appreciate riverscape diversity, in which distinctive suites of physical and biotic processes (behavior) help shape landscape form and character. Weekend field trips are required. Additional coursework is required for those enrolled in the graduate-level course. Cross-listed as: WATS 6150 and GEO 5150/GEO 6150.
-
2.00 Credits
Examines biological and social factors influencing aquatic ecosystems and fish habitats within the context of forest management. Analyzes ecological relationships of fish habitats within forest ecosystem, and how these are influenced by forest management practices. Provides examples of forest habitat issues in major regions of North America, illustrating that both biological and social factors must be considered in developing management strategies and programs.
-
2.00 Credits
?This course introduces students to the motivations for and approaches to aquatic ecosystem restoration. It focuses on the principles of restoration, engaging stakeholders, goal setting, establishing references, techniques for implementation from physical and biological perspectives, and assessing success. Prerequisite: WATS 2220 / BIOL 2220
-
3.00 Credits
This course explores the ecology of wetland and riparian plants in the context of ecosystem restoration. It focuses on the needs of plant propagules (e.g., seeds, rhizomes, cuttings) to inform effective revegetation to meet habitat and other restoration goals. Prerequisite(s): BIOL 2220 or WATS 2220 Corequisite: WATS 5300 Repeatable for credit: No Grade Mode: Standard
Corequisite:
WATS 5300
-
2.00 Credits
Students apply the principles, theory, and skills of watershed science to aquatic ecosystem management and restoration projects. Assignments and group projects include diagnosing aquatic ecosystem impairments, objective definition, requests for proposals, restoration planning, regulatory permitting, and conceptual design. Field trips are required. Prerequisite(s)/Restriction(s): GEOG 2800 or WILD 2800 WATS 5300 (may be taken concurrently) Repeatable for credit.
-
2.00 Credits
Application of principles, theory, and skills to real-world aquatic ecosystem management and restoration projects. Assignments and group projects include diagnosing aquatic ecosystem impairments, objective definition, requests for proposals, restoration planning, regulatory permitting, and conceptual design. Field trips required. Prerequisite: WATS 5340 Repeatable for credit.
-
3.00 Credits
Ecology, collection, and systematics of freshwater aquatic invertebrates. Focuses on insects, but also covers crustaceans, molluscs, and annelids. Several weekend field trips and a collection are required. Prerequisite/Restriction: One year of general biology or zoology, or instructor permission Cross-listed as: BIOL 5550.
-
1.00 Credits
This course provides a field-based, three-day, short-course introduction to Low-Tech Process-Based Restoration of Riverscapes. It includes daily field trips and in-class exercises.
-
1.00 Credits
This course provides an introduction to the practice of Low-Tech Process-Based Restoration of Riverscapes. Students gain exposure to the scope of riverscape degradation, low-tech restoration technique examples, and riverscape and restoration principles.
