printer friendly pageEARTHSYS 151: Biological Oceanography (EARTHSYS 251, ESS 151, ESS 251)
Required for Earth Systems students in the oceans track. Interdisciplinary look at how oceanic environments control the form and function of marine life. Topics include distributions of planktonic production and abundance, nutrient cycling, the role of ocean biology in the climate system, expected effects of climate changes on ocean biology. Local weekend field trips. Designed to be taken concurrently with Marine Chemistry (EESS/
EARTHSYS 152/252). Prerequisites:
BIO 43 and
EESS 8 or equivalent.
Terms: Spr
| Units: 3-4
| UG Reqs: WAY-SMA

EARTHSYS 152: Marine Chemistry (EARTHSYS 252, ESS 152, ESS 252)
Introduction to the interdisciplinary knowledge and skills required to critically evaluate problems in marine chemistry and related disciplines. Physical, chemical, and biological processes that determine the chemical composition of seawater. Air-sea gas exchange, carbonate chemistry, and chemical equilibria, nutrient and trace element cycling, particle reactivity, sediment chemistry, and diagenesis. Examination of chemical tracers of mixing and circulation and feedbacks of ocean processes on atmospheric chemistry and climate. Designed to be taken concurrently with Biological Oceanography (EESS/
EARTHSYS 151/251)
Terms: Spr
| Units: 3-4
| UG Reqs: WAY-AQR, WAY-SMA
