Transfers ToNot transferableDescriptionInvestigate how regional soil types, vegetation patterns, and climate conditions intersect with cultural practices to shape food systems. Topics include agricultural land use, sustainability, and how food production both influences and responds to environmental and societal change. Field studies involve using the tools and perspective of geography to observe, measure, and evaluate the landscape. This includes the ability to describe and interpret spatial patterns, the ability to collect and analyze spatial and non-spatial data, and the ability to draw valid conclusions as to the processes responsible for those patterns. This course will have elements of both human and physical geography and a focus on human-environment relations.Usually Held8:00am–1:00pm, 8:00am–3:00pm, 9:00am–1:00pm, 9:00am–2:00pm
