SUMMARY:Landscape Ecology and Conservation of Amphibians
DESCRIPTION:Instructors: Dr. Bill Peterman (Ohio State University) \nAmphibians are among the most imperiled taxa globally\, with habitat loss and degradation posing the greatest threats. Landscape ecology and conservation biology provide an appropriate lens to address these threats. This course will provide an overview of landscape ecology and conservation biology principles as they pertain to amphibian ecology and life history. Students will gain an understanding of course topics through lecture\, discussion of primary literature\, as well as hands-on exercises and field excursions. Students will also obtain a foundational understanding of GIS technologies through lab exercises. There will be an emphasis on the salamander diversity of the Southern Appalachians and their habitats throughout the course. \nPrerequisites: Zoology\, Herpetology or Vertebrate Biology; Ecology or Population Biology; or permission from instructor \nCost: $1000 course fee + $600 housing fee (if staying on-site) \nClick here for the syllabus.
