GLOBAL ENVIRONMENTAL ECOLOGY

지구생태계의 생물적 요소와 비생물적 요소의 상호관계를 이해하고, 여러 가지 인위적 활동에 의해 직접, 간접적으로 야기된 환경문제가 생태학적으로 어떠한 영향을 미치며, 근본적 원인 해결을 위한 방안을 학습한다.

You will understand the following items at the end of this course,

1. The energy flow from lower trophic level to higher trophic level in the ocean.
2. The regime shift happened to atmosphere and ocean, and its influence on the oceanic ecosystem.

The lecture is mainly held using the Power Point.
At the beginning of a lecture, the new words in the handout will be checked. And I will give the review quizzes from the contents of previous lecture. The questions are shown on the screen, and students answer orally. The additional points will be given to the student who answers the quizzes. Futhermore, XO quizzes will be given once for four or five lecture times.

The followings are requests for students who attend this course.

1. Please be on time and don’t go out during the lecture, or you will be assumed as “late” or “absent”.
2. Don’t use your cellular phone during the lecture. If you receive a call in the class room, you will be treated as the absence.
3. Don’t eat or drink anything during the lecture.

* If your score does not reach 30% of total score, your grade will be "F". * If you are absent more than 10 lecture times, your grade will be "F".

This course will be held in English, and the distributed hand-outs are written in English also. The handouts will be uploaded to the ‘교수학습지원시스탬’. Please download and print them out before the lecture. The students who attend this course are required to prepare for the next lesson.

So far, I have allowed students to use an electronic English dictionary in true-false quizzes of this course. However, I prohibit usage of electronic dictionary since many students pointed out the possibility of cheating. Please prepare a paper English dictionary or word list in advance.

Students who attend this class will get the knowledge about the environmental issues related with the ocean and fisheries. At same time, you will learn the technical English in the field of environment through reading hand-outs or listening the lectures.
