We will emphasize the many linkages and feedbacks between the non-living (abiotic) and living (biotic) components of the earth system.&nbsp;&nbsp;</p><p>Topics we will cover include radiation, temperature, winds and pressure, the water cycle, climate change, and biomes.&nbsp; This course will prepare you for subsequent, more specialized courses in climatology, hydrology, ecology, and biogeography (ecosystems and cycles). This is a natural science course, and graphs and basic algebra-level math calculations will be used to help understand the concepts covered.&nbsp;&nbsp;</p><p>We will move beyond the classroom setting with multiple ecological field trips to nearby locations in Boulder!</p><p>See the&nbsp;<a href="https://catalog.colorado.edu/search/?search=GEOG+1001" rel="nofollow">University Catalog</a>&nbsp;for specifics, recommendations, and prerequisites.</p></div> </div> <div class="ucb-article-content-media ucb-article-content-media-right col-lg"> <div> <div class="paragraph paragraph--type--media paragraph--view-mode--default"> <div> <div class="imageMediaStyle large_image_style"> <img loading="lazy" src="/geography/sites/default/files/styles/large_image_style/public/article-image/geog_1001_image.png?itok=ch4tzkBa" width="1500" height="643" alt="Mountain landscape with lake and foreground flowers"> </div> </div> </div> </div> </div> </div> </div> </div> </div> <h2> <div class="paragraph paragraph--type--ucb-related-articles-block paragraph--view-mode--default"> <div>Off</div> </div> </h2> <div>Traditional</div> <div>0</div> <div>On</div> <div>White</div> Thu, 08 Jun 2017 21:13:58 +0000 Anonymous 510 at /geography
