This class introduces principles of marine biology focusing on the marine life and marine habitats of the Pacific Northwest coast. We will study the environment, taxonomy, adaptations, and ecology of marine organisms as well as the major oceanographic features of the northwest coast and Puget Sound. The program is designed to be in person with lectures, workshops, labs, day-field trips and possibly a one-night backpacking trip to the coast.
