科目概要

In this course, students will get hands-on exercises on field survey and analytical skills in the fields of environmental science. The objective of the course is to learn the skills and techniques which can approach local and regional environmental issues from diversified standpoints. Hands-on exercises are namely: conducting field survey on biota, exploring publicly available data (both biotic and abiotic variables), generating necessary data-sets, analyzing organism-environment relations. The lecturer will give an explanation on a variety of field survey and analytical methods and guide students to conduct a study. Students are expected to pick a topic on their own and work on their project using the techniques they have learned in the course. Students who will register this course are expected to think by themselves, and to be actively involved in group work to carry their study and present the results in the final class.
