FW5604 Fisheries Ecology & Management - Spring 2008 |
Primary readings are required and should be read by mid-week. These are
tentative dates, but you should have read the material by then
unless otherwise announced in class. Discussion sessions (generally
Fridays) will be announced a week ahead of time and you should be
prepared to discuss the "discussion papers" in class. Check this
site and the announcments page once per week to be up-to-date. Papers
and links will be updated throuhout the semester.
Supplemental readings provide additional background and detail. Read or
look at these if you are interested in the topic. You
should also be aware of these sources of information along
with any articles in the additional groups listed after
some of the supplemental readings.
All primary required readings will either be from the required text (Kohler and Hubert 1999), or availble as pdfs for electronic download from the class website (CRES or via Findit Links), or will be handed out in class (several DNR pages)*. Books and mangement plans are available in the Entomology, Fisheries and Wildlife Library.
*see bottom of page for additional details on electronic access to journal articles.

*Notation following each citation indicates availability. Most articles will be available by direct link to the source (CRES) - if you are off campus using a non-university portal (e.g., Comcast, earthlink or DSL), use the findit link. CRES articles are linked to the source for electronic and pdf copies from our web site. Click on the ClassRes (requires class password), Findit or CRES link below each article to get to the source for that article. Note for JSTOR articles you may have better success printing the PDF Economy version than the high quality version. HO articles will be handed out in class. RES books are on reserve in the Entomology, Fisheries and Wildlife Library, Hodson Hall, St. Paul Campus. The simplest way to find the right required and supplemental readings for each week is to follow the links below each reading for that week. You should print copies of the pdf articles that are required reading or discussion papers prior to class so you can refer to them during the discussion.
