A marine mammals and seabirds field course run through the University of
Waterloo, Ontario, Canada and the Huntsman Marine Science Centre, St.
Andrews, New Brunswick, Canada.
This is a three-week field course at the Huntsman Marine Science Centre,
St. Andrews, New Brunswick, Canada. Marine mammals and seabirds will be
observed under natural conditions through frequent field trips at sea
and
ashore. Passamaquoddy Bay and the Bay of Fundy are excellent locations
for
siting harbor and grey seals, harbor porpoises, minke whales, and
numerous
avian species including Atlantic puffins, razorbills, black guillemots,
and
northern gannets. Further, a trip to Grand Manan Island will allow us
to
observe the incredibly rare northern right whale. There is a strong
emphasis on field research and each student will complete an independent
research project. Lectures and labs will introduce the evolution,
zoogeography, morphology, ecology, physiology, and behavior of diving
air-breathing vertebrates.
