A holistic and interdisciplinary exploration of aquatic ecosystems (lakes, streams and estuaries) with an emphasis on the linkages between land and water. Students will investigate the ecological relationships, the biological communities, the geochemical dynamics, the environmental pollution and management of local watersheds through readings, lecture and research. In the laboratory students will conduct research to answer novel questions, explore aquatic ecosystems first-hand on field trips, and learn important laboratory techniques for monitoring watersheds. This course fulfills the Ecology and Evolution area requirement in the Biology major. Prerequisite(s): BIOL 221 Genetics (4)   and CHEM 101 General Chemistry I (4)  -CHEM 102 General Chemistry II (4) . (As needed)
