MITAMURA HIROMICHI (Field Science Education and Research Center Professor) ICHIKAWA KOTARO (Field Science Education and Research Center Associate Professor) KOBAYASHI SHIHO (Field Science Education and Research Center Assistant Professor) Satoko S. KIMURA (Center for Educational Program Promotion in Graduate School Program-Specific Associate Professor) KUME MANABU (Field Science Education and Research Center Program-Specific Assistant Professor) |
||
| Outline and Purpose of the Course | The seminar covers all the topics on recent study in fisheries oceanography. Students read recent scientific papers and make presentations of the review using Power Point (or other presentation software) for discussion. | ||
| Course Goals | Students will understand the basic concepts of Physical-Biological interactions in the Sea and develop the skills to resolve issues related to their research. | ||
| Schedule and Contents |
This course will give students an opportunity to read recently published research papers, widely referenced articles, and technical books related to oceanography, physical-biological interactions in the sea, fisheries oceanography, and animal behavioral science, deliver an oral presentation on the contents of the papers, and discuss them in class. Students will also present and discuss their research plans, experimental techniques, and research outcomes. Through this experience students will learn the series of steps they need to take to become a researcher: developing research themes, preparing a research plan, conducting research, and presenting the results. Professor Kobayashi will be the instructor of oceanography and fisheries oceanography for 10 sessions, and Professors Mitamura and Kimura will be instructor of physical-biological interactions in the sea for 10 sessions, and Professors Ichikawa and Kume will be instructor of animal behavioral science for 10 sessions. |
