BIOL 332E - Tropical Ecology (Extended Study)


A three-week trip to Costa Rica, Central America, where students visit tropical lowland rainforest, montane cloud forest, and lowland dry forest, and visit a mangrove swamp, secondary forest, and high elevation tropical bog. In each study site students conduct the research studies proposed and decided on during the lecture course. The extended study includes rigorous field work, individual and group projects, research reports, and presentations–all with the backdrop of the forest.
