  • BIOM 459: Advanced Methods in Coastal Ecology

    3.00 Credits
    East Stroudsburg University of Pennsylvania

    This course covers the wide array of methods of data collection, study designs, and analyses used in ecology. Emphasis is placed on understanding the strengths and weaknesses of different ecological methods and analyses in the study of coastal environments. Lecture, fieldwork, and laboratory are integrated, and students gain practical computer experience by analyzing ecology data from the field using software that performs analyses introduced in lecture. Prerequisite:    Two semesters of introductory biology, college algebra (or equivalent) and an ecology course. Recommended: Statistics.

  • BIOM 460: Marine Ecology

    3.00 Credits
    East Stroudsburg University of Pennsylvania

    This course is a study of the physical constants of the marine environment as it interrelates with marine organisms. The ecological interactions of the organisms with each other will be emphasized. The effect of pollution and excessive exploitation on marine organisms will be discussed. Since this course is also offered for graduate credit, a differentiation of requirements will be made. Prerequisite:    Any two courses in biology with the exception of laboratory courses only.

  • BIOM 461: Marine Botany

    3.00 Credits
    East Stroudsburg University of Pennsylvania

    The taxonomy, physiology, ecology, and economic importance of marine and coastal plants, as exemplified by those found in the Lewes, Delaware, area, will be considered. Laboratory techniques will include collecting, preserving, identifying, and analyzing plants and plant materials; appropriate instrumentation will be used. Emphasis will be given to both in-the-field studies and laboratory analyses. This course is periodically offered at the Marine Science field station at Wallops Island, Va., only during a summer session. Since this course also is offered for graduate credit, a differentiation of requirements will be made. Prerequisite:    Any two courses in biology with the exception of laboratory courses only.

  • BIOM 467: Marine Pollution Research Cruise

    3.00 Credits
    East Stroudsburg University of Pennsylvania

    Investigations are conducted before, during, and after a pollution episode; the fate and behavior (dispersion and degradation) of the pollutants are followed. Bioassays and other toxicity studies will also be conducted. Procedures, techniques, and equipment will be prepared and standardized prior to the cruise and a final project report prepared and submitted for the course grade.
