    A hands-on introduction to the methods used to study ecological patterns and processes in the marine environment. Class will consist of a series of group field exercises conducted in local marine habitats. These exercises will emphasize a variety of sampling methods for documenting patterns of distribution and abundance, experimental designs for testing hypotheses and statistical interpretation of results. These skills are fundamental to most basic and applied research in marine ecology and fisheries. Thus this course provides an essential foundation for a professional career in these areas.
