Moodle at Eckerd College 2024-25 Academic Year

Internship

Microscopic-to-macroscopic scale structures in rocks, field observations of stress and strain. Oceanic and continental structures, theory of plate tectonics. Includes laboratory component. Prerequisite: MS 101N.

In-depth overview of marine mammals (whales, dolphins, manatees, seals, sea lions, etc.). Topics include marine mammal systematics, status, behavior, physiology, population dynamics, evolution, and management. Current periodical literature text readings are basis for discussions. Prerequisites: BI 111N, MS 102N, or ES 270N. Junior or Senior standing required.

Systematics, evolution, ecology, behavior, and anatomical and physiological adaptations of sharks and rays. Current scientific research, human impact, how populations can be managed. Prerequisites: BI 212 or BI 303 and Junior standing.

An integrated review of marine organism navigation, orientation, migration, behavior, sensory biology, physiology, and ecology focusing on fauna ranging from marine invertebrate larvae to larger marine vertebrate taxa. Prerequisites: MS102N, BI 212 and junior standing.

Integrated study of chemical and physical ocean processes with emphasis on interactions with the biosphere, atmosphere, and lithosphere. Topics include biogeochemical cycling, primary production, and chemical tracers to study oceanic processes. Includes laboratory component. Prerequisites: MS 101N, MS 102N, and CH 122.
