Course Description:
BI 408/508 MARINE BIOINVASIONS (2 quarter hour credits) Invasions of non-native marine animals and plants have significantly altered the biodiversity of coastal habitats around the world. We examine the theoretical, historical, and ecological concepts and consequences of biological invasions in the sea, review how species have been and continue to be transported globally, and key policy perspectives to prevent and control invasions. The course includes lectures, field work, and laboratory analyses, as we explore the phenomena and processes that influence invasion success.
