Natural disturbances shape our world, causing disruption to our lives, while simultaneously benefiting ecosystem composition and structure. This course will introduce disturbance ecology and explore the effects of natural and anthropogenic disturbances on ecosystems using past and recent disasters. We will discuss the influence these events have on ecological and societal aspects and how past practices have shaped current responses. The course will also emphasize science literacy across disciplines and is communication-intensive, focusing on spoken and technology communication.
