BIO-315 Marine Biology HOME EMAIL Biology of the Seashore Marine Biology ... Oak Ridge Science Semester
This course will be taught every other year in May Term. The course is a laboratory science credit and may be applied to a biology major.
Course Description: This course will survey marine organisms, emphasizing tropical systems. The primary field analyses will focus on the dynamics of coral reefs, tidal regions, turtle grass meadows, and adjacent terrestrial environments. A portion of the term will be spen t on campus in preparation for the field study which will be conducted at the Bahamian Field Station on San Salvador Island. Instruction will include lectures, both on campus and at the field station, library assignments and extensive exercises in the fi eld. Evaluation will be based on quizzes, student presentations and participation in class discussion and field activities. Overview for Prospective Students: This course is designed to introduce students who have had no formal instruction in marine science to selected aspects of marine and island biology. The course starts with a week on the Coe campus. Students attend lecture presentations on the diversity of marine organisms and complete independent library study of the life histories and taxonomic characteristics of two groups of organisms of their choice. The study guides and visual teaching aids they prepare are used to teach other students about the life histories organisms we see in the Bahamas.

Marine Biology and Limnology
College of Science and Engineering Undergraduate Programs
The Because marine biology spans all biological and most physical sciences, a high school graduate who elects to enter this program should be competent in a wide variety of subjects. High school mathematics, chemistry, and biology should be emphasized. Other pertinent courses might be chosen from such fields as geology, meteorology, physics, English composition, and foreign language. Community college students considering transfer into the Marine Biology program should complete coursework in general biology, zoology, college chemistry, and physics. Wide ranging intellectual curiosity and flexibility in conceptual thought are positive indicators for potential in the fields of Marine Biology and Limnology. Moss Landing Marine Laboratories
San Francisco State University is a member of a consortium of six California State Universities that jointly operate the Moss Landing Marine Laboratories on Monterey Bay. Moss Landing conducts instructional and research activities on near-shore marine and estuarine environments. Oceangoing research vessels based at Moss Landing also participate in wide-ranging offshore marine research. The Moss Landing curriculum supports a range of programs in marine science. Students matriculating at any of the six participating institutions can take part or all of their graduate work at Moss Landing.

    Chicago-Area Students Return From Trip Of A Lifetime Aboard Shedd Aquarium Research Vessel
    Chicago, August 24, 2001 - Nearly 30 high school students from the Chicago area recently returned from a once-in-a-lifetime experience in the Bahamas aboard Shedd Aquarium's research vessel, the R/V Coral Reef II, where they learned firsthand about a variety of marine environments. Shedd Aquarium's High School Marine Biology (HSMB) program gives high school students the opportunity to engage in hands-on experiments, activities and discussions both at Shedd and aboard the Aquarium's research vessel. "This unique program enables high school students to experience hands-on biology and conservation in a marine setting," said Nicole Pierson, coordinator of the HSMB program. "In addition to introducing them to an entirely new environment, it gives students a taste of what the field of marine biology entails so they can make educated choices about their future." Each summer for the past three decades, Shedd Aquarium has offered this hands-on marine biology program to 30 high school students. The journey starts in Chicago by diving into learning during six days of laboratory exercises, lectures and discussions in the classrooms of Shedd Aquarium's Education Department.

    Environmental report for marine or limnological studies
    by Joseph Schnierlein, Norwalk, CT
    Type of Activity: A combination of hands-on, inquiry lab, group/cooperative learning, and off-site activity. Target Group: High School environmental studies (Jr.and Sr.), but could be modified for middle school. Background information: This activity involves visiting a study area 2 or 3 times. The students are required to write a report after the last visit including what is listed below. Prior to the report, students spend two to three periods in the field, and usually an equal amount of 45 minute periods back in the lab doing identifications of specimens and the calculations that are required. If students are sincere, this information may become part of a database for your community or state.
    Preparation time Preparation time varies depending on the student level, class chemistry and backgrounds, the equipment you have, and the proximity to the study area. It could take 5 periods or longer to prepare the students. Materials needed: Parental permission slips, transportation to and from work study area, life jackets if students enter the water, waders, meter sticks, testing equipment for oxygen, salinity and pH, seines, plankton nets, secchi disks, jars or zip lock bags to put specimens in, line level and 100 ft. line, Beaufort's scale, compass(es), notebooks and field guide book for mollusks, fish, birds, etc. Aerial photographs and topographic maps may be useful on site or in the classroom to "see" nearby influential factors.

DAY 9* CUERO and SALADO NATIONAL WILDLIFE REFUGE-LA CEIBA- CONSERVATION ORGANIZATION VISIT-BUTTERFLY MUSEUM. Before breakfast this morning, we will depart by boat, and explore some of the aquatic trails in Cuero and Salado Wildlife Refuge. With some luck, we hope to spot resident black howler monkeys, a wide variety of birds and possibly manatees that live in the Refuge. Our group will return to camp for breakfast and then travel back to the mainland and depart for La Ceiba, largest city on the north coast of Honduras. Following lunch, we will visit one of the local conservation organizations responsible for protecting the valuable natural resources found along the north coast. Our group will then visit a local Butterfly Museum located outside of La Ceiba. Here, we will see mounted butterfly specimens from not only Honduras, but throughout Central America. In the late afternoon, return to La Ceiba for dinner and overnight. B L D *Note: Our group may be divided in half, depending on size, with DAY 9 afternoon and DAY 10 morning activities alternated.
