Bio 323, Tues and Thurs 3:00pm-4:15pm

Dr. Terry Gates

How have coral reefs changed over the past 500 million years? Were dinosaur ecosystems much different from mammal ecosystems? How has biodiversity changed since the origin of life?

Learn about these awesome things and many more in Paleoecology.  This course will explore the ways that paleontologists study ancient ecosystems through observation of fossils and quantifying the fossil record.
