    This course introduces basic ecological and fisheries stock assessment models. Through lectures, assignments and weekly computer lab, it provides a conceptual understanding of population dynamics relevant to fisheries and practice manipulating equations. Prerequisites: STAT F200X. Offered Fall Odd-numbered Years Prerequisite:    STAT F200 UF C- OR STAT F200X UF C- OR STAT F301 UF C-
  • 3.00 Credits

    This course in an exploration of how fish interact with, and adapt to, their physical and biological environment, taught through the viewpoint that habitat diversity acts as a template for biological diversity within and among species. We will examine the ecology of major freshwater and marine habitats (with an emphasis on the former), as well as the potential threats to these habitats from human activity. Stacked with FISH F650. Prerequisites: FISH F110; BIOL F371. Offered Fall Odd-numbered Years Prerequisite:    (BIOL F271 UF C- OR BIOL F371 UF C- ) AND FISH F110 UF C-
  • 3.00 Credits

    This course will provide upper-level undergraduate and graduate students with an advanced understanding of behavioral responses and adaptations of fishes in both freshwater and marine systems to natural and anthropogenic environmental variables. It provides students an option to fulfill upper-level undergraduate and graduate required and elective course work. Before enrolling, students should have a sound understanding of both ecological and biological concepts relating to fishes. Recommended: FISH F425. Stacked with FISH F626. Prerequisites: BIOL F371 or FISH F427. Offered Spring Even-numbered Years Prerequisite:    BIOL F271 UF C- OR BIOL F371 UF C- OR FISH F427 UF C-
  • 4.00 Credits

    Major groups of fishes, emphasizing fishes of northwestern North America. Classification structure, evolution, general biology and importance to man. Cross-listed with BIOL F427. Prerequisites: BIOL F116X. Offered Spring Prerequisite:    BIOL F116X UF C-

  • 3.00 Credits

    This course provides an introduction to the life histories of Pacific salmon. We will explore variation in life history traits within and among species, as well as within and among populations, at each stage of the salmon life cycle. Life histories will be understood in evolutionary and ecological contexts. We will also discuss management and conservation of Pacific salmonid species throughout their range, but with focus on Alaska. This course is taught in Juneau. Stacked with FISH F633. Prerequisites: BIOL F115X; BIOL F116X. Offered Spring Even-numbered Years Prerequisite:    BIOL F115X UF C- AND BIOL F116X UF C-
  • 3.00 Credits

    Students examine how understanding the oceanographic processes that determine the distribution, recruitment, and abundance of marine vertebrates and invertebrates from global to local scales and from evolutionary time scales to daily scales supports the sustainable management of marine fisheries resources. Prerequisites: CHEM F105X, PHYS F103X, FISH F288, STAT F200X. Recommended: FISH F425. Cross-listed with MSL F440. Offered Fall Even-numbered Years Prerequisite:    CHEM F105X UF C- AND PHYS F103X UF C- AND FISH F288 UF C- AND STAT F200X UF C-
