Introduction to interactions between plants and wildlife, including species of conservation concern. Emphasis is on plant species that comprise east Tennessee’s primary wildlife habitats, and the utility of vegetation data in management. Students will be required to participate in at least one day-long field trip.
Contact Hour Distribution: 2 hour lecture and 1 hour lab.
(RE) Prerequisite(s) : BIOL 150 or BIOL 114 or FORS 214.
The course will provide an introduction to relevant aspects of rare species biology (concept of rarity; the development and use of rarity indices; issues of detection; in situ and ex situ methods and assisted migration), and how that information is used for conservation, management and recovery purposes. Students will apply knowledge learned in a project addressing a conservation or management priority with data provided by government agencies (e.g. USFWS). (RE) Prerequisites: BIOL 260 or FORS 215.
