LIM 5012 - Integrated Approaches to the Study of Inland Waters II (3 Cr.)

D SCSE Graduate Studies, Dept (10341) DCSE - Swenson College of Science and Engineering

Course description

Continuing from LIM 5010, this is the second semester of an interdisciplinary introduction to the science of Limnology taught at the beginning graduate student level. The science of inland waters, Limnology, is built on Geology, Chemistry, Biology, and Physics and
increasingly includes Social Sciences. Students will experience an indepth, integrated approach to Limnology. Lake systems are emphasized but wetland and running water systems are discussed. The course includes significant out of class time reviewing on-line modules and other materials. In-class time is devoted mainly to group
work, solving real-world problems, and student-led discussions and presentations. An optional companion laboratory and practice course (LIM 5013) is associated with this course where additional foundational and fundamental limnological techniques are taught.
