BI 306
Biogeog & Conservation Bio
An integrated study of the distribution, abundance and diversity of plants and animals, with an emphasis on the study of broad patterns in the ecological characteristics of ecosystems. Topics may include temporal and spatial patterns
of biodiversity, species abundances and range patterns, vicariance, dispersal, species interactions, disturbance events, historical and evolutionary biogeography, endemism and islandbiogeography. These topics form the theoretical underpinning of much of the theory of conservation planning, which will be a major applied focus throughout the course.
Prerequisites: BI206.
Exclusions: BI301, BU409.
