Students and professionals can gain proficiency in (or sharpen up on) using taxonomic keys\, examining ecological factors influencing algal biodiversity\, and collect high-resolution algal images and voucher specimens.We will sample a diverse range of lake\, pond\, and river habitats. We provide a full array of sampling gear\, microscopy facilities\, and an extensive taxonomic library. Registration Fee: $1\,800. Cost includes on-site housing (limited number).

SUMMARY:Grasses of the Southern Appalachians
DESCRIPTION:class will include a detailed description of the grass flower\, inflorescence type\, habitat and ecological associations\, Tribal affinities\, distribution\, and habit differences. The class will be taught in four parts: 1) power point presentation and classroom instruction\, 2) examination of important features with hand lens and dissecting scope\, 3) team keying of grass specimens\, and 4) field identification.Dichotomous keys\, hard copy print outs of power point presentation\, and other handouts will be provided by the instructor. Tips for proper collection; processing; label development; herbaria deposition of grass specimens; and suggested websites/electronic tools helpful in grass study will also be discussed. \n \n \nWeb Address of Course Info:https://highlandsbiological.org/summer-2023-academic-courses/ \n \n \nContact: Katie Cooke (kfcooke@wcu.edu)
