Ecogeomorphology EVSC 660 (4)

Ecogeomorphology is the interdisciplinary study of watersheds that integrates geomorphology, hydrology and ecology to facilitate new understandings of landscapes and ecosystems by bridging dominant paradigms from the individual disciplines. This course explores how animals alter landscapes, as well as how physical habitat conditions influence the dynamics and resilience of biological populations. Prerequisite: Permission from the instructor. Undergraduate courses in both ecology and geomorphology are highly recommended.
