Spring 2010 Quarter:
ESR 591 (4 cr) – Ecosystem Services and Sustainability: Field Projects
ESR 591 is a field projects course that examines shifts in ecosystem
services on the White Salmon River associated with removal of the
Condit Dam (from hydropower and flat water recreation to ‘white water’
fisheries and recreation) and estimates environmental, economic and
social impacts. ESR 510/590 is a required pre-requisite. Students will
work in small groups on real-world issues related to these ecological
and socio-economic impacts and shifts. Students will gain on-the-ground
experience and contacts with community and agency partners.
