Description
Reading the landscape and making it interesting for program participants depends on ecological literacy. This intensive field-based course will be an introduction to regional field ecology in which participants will develop skills in reading the landscape from an ecological perspective. We will use science, art, and literature to understand the ecology of our region. We will also explore the ways regional conservation efforts are informed by ecological field research and monitoring.
