Prerequisite: Algebra, ability to read and interpolate graphical material and one semester each of college physics and college chemistry; and permission of department.
Course Description: The course will explore the natural aquatic environment and how aquatic organisms are effected by this environment. The course will then explore way to modify aquatic environments, especially in recirculating systems, and will exlpore ways to increase production of fish with less water usage. Components of recirculating systems including water filtration, pumps, aerators, level and flow meters, and other system components will be described and their operating principals explored.
Offered in spring, odd-numbered years.
