This interdisciplinary course will focus on developing a scientific understanding of natural resources and their use by humans, and how renewable resources are then used, overused, managed and conserved by humans. We will primarily consider modern methods of resource management, including adaptive and ecosystem-based management.

We will address natural resource and environmental issues from an ecosystem and a policy perspective. Through case studies, readings, class discussions, and knowledge construction, you will learn more about ecosystem ecology and management policies and approaches, and then apply your knowledge to identify management principles that are consistent with a more holistic ecosystem approach to resource management. You will apply your knowledge to develop a case study of use and management of one natural resource.
