Below are proposals and reports from Zoology 750, the legendary Sapelo Island field course. The course has been a rite of passage for CFL grad students for 40 years. Though listed as Problems in Oceanography in the course catalog, this is our graduate field ecology course. It involves one weekly meeting and then a ten-day field trip to Sapelo Island, Georgia. The course will introduce you to coastal marine ecosystems of Southeastern North America, but the real aim is to give you an independent research experience on a low-stakes project where you have lots of support and engagement from faculty and fellow students.
The 2017 Sapelo Island trip was skipped due to unforeseen circumstances. So, the next Sapelo Island trip took place in 2018. Now on an every-other-even-year schedule, the next trip is planned for fall 2020. The reports have been assigned keywords. Use the “find” feature (Ctrl-F) to locate reports with keywords in the following categories:
