Natural Resources Conservation 214 - Fish Sampling & Identification

Fish are a diverse and important group of organisms that occupy the aquatic ecosystems of our planet. This course will provide students with basic knowledge of how to identify fish, as well as provide hands-on opportunities to learn common sampling techniques for fish in local freshwater environments. We will also be covering some basic methods used to examine fish populations and communities. Because of the limited enrollment in this course, we hope that each student will be motivated to try various sampling techniques and learn to handle fish. There will also be some data management and basic statistical analyses covered.
