General Ecology Laboratory is intended to demonstrate the application of techniques and procedures used in assessing ecological processes in nature and in the laboratory. The course will also provide experience with experimental and sample design, data analysis, graphic presentation, and scientific writing. Application of experiences gained in this course is applicable across all of the natural sciences and is not limited to ecology.
Attendance is mandatory.
A laboratory assignment can not be submitted for evaluation if you did not attend a lab. If you know you are going to miss lab in advance, attend the other lab. Both laboratories meet from 9 - 12. Absences from two labs will result in automatic failure of the course. Laboratory reports will be completed each week as a summary of the findings from each week's laboratory exercise.
