Coastal Communities in the North Atlantic

3 credits · Undergraduate

Various perspectives which have been applied to coastal communities are examined with regard to the contribution they may make to understanding the dynamics of these communities. The focus is on North Atlantic communities. PREREQUISITES: One of SOSA 1000X/Y.06, 1050X/Y.06, 1100X/Y.06 or 1200X/Y.06 CROSSLISTED: SOSA 3220.03 FORMATS: Lecture
