In this course, we will explore how scientists use field observations to collect ecological data and answer scientific questions. Students will learn about different methods of collecting field data, how to identify some local flora and fauna, and how they might ask questions about ecology for scientific study. Additionally, students will work both individually and in teams to explore recent ecological research. The title of this course may be quite literal, as at least a few of our classes will be held in campus forests and wetlands.
