-
8.00 Credits
Variable enrollment, two to nine hours; maximum credit applicable toward degree, six hours. (F, Sp, Su)
-
9.00 Credits
1 to 3 hours. Prerequisite: fifteen hours of microbiology, permission. May be repeated; maximum credit six hours. The student selects an area in which the student desires to read intensively, then selects a staff member who is an authority in that field, and together they plan a program for investigation of the literature. (F, Sp, Su)
-
0.00 Credits
Prerequisite: one computer course, one course in ecology, or permission of instructor. Trains students to use modeling tools in their research and to gain greater ability to understand, appreciate, and criticize modeling work. Students will learn general procedure and principles with case studies of successful models in ecology and participate in course projects to gain hands-on experience in model development. (Irreg.)
-
1.00 Credits
Prerequisite: 3813 and 3812, plus six hours of microbiology, biochemistry, organic chemistry or permission. Recent advances in bacterial metabolism will be covered with emphasis on unusual bacterial pathways and on the biotransformations of environmentally significant materials. (Sp odd-numbered years)
-
7.00 Credits
Prerequisite: 3813 and 3812 plus two courses in microbiology, or 3813 and 3812 plus one microbiology course and one ecology course; biochemistry; calculus; or permission. Advanced treatment of the development and interactions of microbial communities with their living and abiotic environment. Emphasis placed on experimental approaches and on the quantitative concepts of the subject matter. Topics include a kinetic evaluation of microbial activities, global carbon cycling, biodegradation of environmentally significant materials and techniques used in the study of microbial ecology. (F even-numbered years)
-
8.00 Credits
2 to 16 hours. (F, Sp, Su)
-
4.00 Credits
Examines Earth systems of North America using both indigenous and Western perspectives, and an Earth science approach. This team-taught course will utilize a combination of geology, geography, meteorology, and Native American sciences, as expressed through the use of art. (Sp) [II-NL]
-
1.00 Credits
Prerequisite: Mathematics 1503 or higher. Required of all Meteorology majors during their first year of residence. Introduction to the School of Meteorology and its curriculum, faculty and staff. Presentations from different professional meteorologists introduce career options, challenges and opportunities in meteorology. (F)
-
1.00 Credits
Prerequisite: Grade of C or better in Mathematics 1823; corequisite: 2013,Computer Science 1313 or 1323, Mathematics 2423, and Physics 2514 or 1205. Reinforces the theoretical concepts provided in the counterpart lecture course Meteorology 2013, which introduces students to important phenomena and physical processes that occur in the earth's atmosphere. Through a series of laboratory exercises, students will learn the basic concepts and tools that are used to study atmospheric problems. Special emphasis will be placed on developing information technology and computational skills. The laboratory exercises target the topics covered in the lecture component. (F, Sp) [II-LAB]
-
3.00 Credits
Prerequisite: Mathematics 1823 (C or better); corequisite: 2011, Computer Science 1313 or 1323, Mathematics 2423, Physics 2514 or 1205. Introduces students to important phenomena and physical processes that occur in earth's atmosphere, as well as to the basic concepts and instruments used to study atmospheric problems. Focuses on atmospheric radiation, thermodynamics, moisture, stability, clouds, and precipitation. (F, Sp) [II-LAB]
