Limnology Lec/Lab
Lecture and laboratory. An introduction to the structure and function of lake and stream ecosystems. The course includes the integration of physical, chemical, and biological parameters. Laboratories include weekend field trips to aquatic habitats.
Outcomes: Students will learn methods of sampling and analyzing physical, chemical and biological factors in lake and stream ecosystems, and how to integrate these complex data sets to answer ecosystem process-level questions. Students will learn to evaluate the trophic status and health of a lake by the end of the course.
