Offered: Every Spring
Student Learning Outcomes
Upon completion of this course, students will be able to:
1. communicate, in writing or verbally, an understanding of important forest and range soil properties and processes relating to the biology, physics, and chemistry of soils.
2. identify and characterize forest and range soils in the field.
3. demonstrate, in writing, an understanding of plant-soil feedbacks, above-ground and below-ground interactions, and the relationship between forest and range management and soils.
4. communicate, in writing or verbally, the ways that disturbances, including human-induced global change, impact forest and range soils as a natural resource.
