This course will provide in-depth understanding of applied population biology. Topics include population growth and regulation, demography, interspecific interactions, evolution of life histories, management of threatened species and control of pest organisms using ecological and evolutionary perspectives. Active learning exercises emphasize applied field skills, experimental design, and computer simulation needed by environmental scientists. In-class lectures and activities will be supplemented by field trips.Weekly
