A study of the structural features of various groups of ancient organisms. The course consists of a survey of important animal phyla with emphasis on marine and terrestrial communities, diversity, functional morphology, adaptations and the relationship between form and function. Paleoecological aspects include the interrelationship between organisms, populations, communities and the environment. Prerequisites: BIO 101-102 or departmental permission. 3 credits.

Students in this course will study the principles of geology and ecology that illustrate how the earth acts as an integrated system involving dynamic interactions between its various layers and organisms. Field work will be concentrated in the Negev and rift valley with stops at localities that are illustrative of the geology and ecology of the land. Geological topics include: rocks, weathering and erosion, the rock record, surface processes (mass wasting, streams, deserts), internal processes (earthquakes, plate tectonics, deformation of the earth's crust) and ancient marine communities. Ecological topics include: desert environments, ecological niches, energy and nutrient cycling, food chains and food webs. Students will visit the Geological Survey of Israel with emphasis on the library, repositories, graphics and mapping departments, scanning electron microscope and, a new multi-collector inductively coupled plasma mass spectrometer (MC-ICPMS) designed for precise and accurate analysis of geological and biological materials. Prerequisites Biology 102. Credits 2, 3, or 4 depending on the addition and nature of a written paper assignment.
