-
3.00 Credits
Alt yrs.; II; 3 cr (B-I). Multiple ways in which arthropods exploit plants, plant traits that deter or augment insects, environmental mediation of these interactions, effects on population dynamics, community ecology and co-evolution, and implications to natural resource management, environmental quality, and sustainable development. P: One of the following: Bot/For/Zoo 460, Ent/Pl Path/For 500, Pl Path/Bot 505, Forestry 550, or Entom 342.
-
5.00 Credits
Alt yrs.; I; 3-5 cr (B-A). This course uses computer and GIS-based modeling to explore how climate, topography, vegetation type, and key animal properties all interact to specify from first principles the energetics and activity constraints of animals on any landscape. It links individual, population and community variables at landscape scales. P: Jr st.
-
3.00 Credits
II; 3 cr (B-I). Interactions of fishes with their physical, chemical, and biotic environment; physiological ecology, community ecology and fisheries sciences. Lake Mendota perch fishery and Shedd Aquarium field trips. P: 1 yr biol & chem & Jr st.

-
3.00 Credits
II; 3 cr (B-I). Comprehensive introduction to bird biology with emphasis on evolution, ecology, and behavior.
