Extractions: very favorable review Written by Carol L. Matthews, M. Ed. Reviewed by Joel Teret, Pres., New York State Marine Education Assn., Reprint from Ripples Newsletter Winter '91: "Carol Matthews has written an excellent laboratory manual for secondary school and early college level marine science classes that will complement all marine biology texts written for these levels. The exercises within this manual augment the disciplines of Marine Biology and Oceanography . Each investigation is written in a concise, clearly elucidated procedural format. Student observations are depicted through several means of expression: tables are available for students to record data; grids are provided for graph construction; and space is afforded for illustrations. Each experience also requires students to answer questions and/or complete statements in a Conclusion and a Discussion section. Clearly drawn and precise illustrations by Douglas L. Matthews serve as illuminating aids to student perceptions."

Extractions: June 29-July 18, 2005 The Department of Biology will offer a two-week (16 days of instruction) field course on Marine Biology in Hawaii during the second summer session in June/July 2005. Marine Biology is an introduction to coastal marine ecosystems and the associated fauna and flora. The course is open to students of any major. This is an intensive course in marine biology focusing on marine ecosystems in the Hawaiian Islands. These ecosystems include Coral Reefs, Beaches, Rocky Intertidal, Open Ocean and Mangroves. There will be an emphasis on corals and fishes but other organisms such as mollusks and arthropods will be studied. Lecture material will be presented in advance of field experiences through use of the web and e-mail. The laboratory grade will be based on a journal of field activities including identification and ecology of organisms. Students will make a detailed analysis of the communities and organisms observed during field activities. Permission of Dr. Williams is required to register.

Extractions: Description: The CIEE Marine Biology program in Bonaire is an intensive, two-week field course. The program integrates lectures, field experience, student group work, and readings. Emphasis is placed on hands-on field observation of ecological processes, both on land and underwater, as well as human-nature interactions and their application to the conservation of natural and cultural resources. Participants enroll in one CIEE course: Marine Biology and Ecology in the Southern Caribbean. With its setting in the natural classroom, the program provides the student with a unique, integrated experience involving class work, field study, lab work, and observation. Enrollment in this program is limited to 12 students. Academic Culture The small, rigorous course with a biological and scientific focus is offered for CIEE students only and contains extensive experiential components. The required course combines classroom-based academics with broad practical experience. Professors prepare students in the classroom and accompany them on field trips. Given the number of projects and field visits required for this course, students should expect an intense yet rewarding program.

Oak Ridge Science Semester Course Description: This course will survey marine organisms, emphasizing tropical systems. The primary field analyses will focus on the dynamics of coral reefs, tidal regions, turtle grass meadows, and adjacent terrestrial environments. A portion of the term will be spen t on campus in preparation for the field study which will be conducted at the Bahamian Field Station on San Salvador Island. Instruction will include lectures, both on campus and at the field station, library assignments and extensive exercises in the fi eld. Evaluation will be based on quizzes, student presentations and participation in class discussion and field activities. Overview for Prospective Students: This course is designed to introduce students who have had no formal instruction in marine science to selected aspects of marine and island biology. The course starts with a week on the Coe campus. Students attend lecture presentations on the diversity of marine organisms and complete independent library study of the life histories and taxonomic characteristics of two groups of organisms of their choice. The study guides and visual teaching aids they prepare are used to teach other students about the life histories organisms we see in the Bahamas.

Contact Us Marine Biology Laboratory in Barbados Every third year since 1972, the Biology Department has offered a Marine Biology Laboratory course with field activities based at McGill University's marine field station located on the island of Barbados in the West Indies. The Biology Department will offer this laboratory again during Academic Year 2003-2004. The prerequisite for participation in the laboratory is having taken Biology 284, a lecture course in Marine Biology given each fall term. The laboratory will be given during January 2006, prior to the start of the Spring semester. This laboratory class is limited to 14 students. McGill University's field station, The Bellairs Marine Research Institute, is located at St. James, Barbados, on the west shore of the island, about 8 mi. N of Bridgetown, the capital. The major emphasis of the course is the ecology of tropical marine systems of the Atlantic and Caribbean Sea. From the lecture portion of the course, each student should be familiar with the basic subject matter of Marine Biology as it applies to Florida coast and Caribbean marine ecosystems. The laboratory activities in Barbados will consist of comprehensive in-field ecological survey/analyses of representative tropical marine ecosystems Days are spent in the field; evenings in the laboratory and in informal seminar discussions, focusing on the ecology of the habitats being studied in the field. Each student will keep a field notebook, submit daily accounts of organisms collected and identified, and participate in evening discussion sessions.

External Links Marine Biology as a career Of all the ocean sciences, marine biology is by far the most well known and popular to the general public. This is largely due to the popularity of television programmes and books about the natural world, which have made people aware of the beauty and diversity of marine life forms. First of all I need to correct a major misconception - marine biologists rarely if ever work with large marine mammals such as whales and dolphins - that type of work is mainly the domain of zoologists, and the number of vacancies world-wide is very small, unless you are willing to work unpaid for one of the various marine wildlife charities or pressure groups. Marine biologists often work at the opposite end of the size spectrum, analysing, classifying and counting bacteria, plankton, algae and less glamorous creatures such as shrimps, worms and fish larvae. Gathering surface plankton in the Indian Ocean Marine biologists are interested in the processes of how marine organisms develop, relate to one another, adapt to their environment and interact with it. With increasing knowledge of how these plants and animals live today, predictions can be made about how marine ecosystems will cope with changes such as global warming, pollution, pressure from fisheries and even damage caused by tourism in sensitive areas. Some marine biologists work closely with geologists to examine fossil marine organisms, which can give important clues about climate conditions in the past.
