GEOG 415. Environment, Landscape and Culture

3.00
This seminar analyzes human-environment interactions as shaped by cultural perceptions, past events and ecological processes. Place-based and interdisciplinary, landscape studies focus on the unique circumstances of a location and shift temporal and geographic scales to achieve broader understandings of cultural and ecological adaptation and resilience. Methods of historical ecology and field research are introduced. Regional projects underscore readings and research assignments. Prerequisite: GEOG 290 , GEOG 308  or permission of instructor.
