Labs involve travel to field sites to perform research and expand student skill sets for working in the field. With Covid-19 restrictions, this requires students to walk/hike to sites located up to 30 minutes from Cornell campus (Fernow Hall) carrying your belongings in a backpack, often over uneven terrain. Although the walking/hiking is not rigorous, field labs often involve being on your feet for nearly the duration of the lab period. For each 3-hour lab you should carry sufficient drinking water, and a snack (if desired). You must wear close-toed footwear with a strong sole (no sandals or flipflops; hiking boots preferred), and long pants to protect legs from scratches in brushy/thorny habitat). If you have physical or other limitations that make it difficult for you to participate in the course, please contact the office of Student Disability Services (sds_cu@cornell.edu) so that we may work to accommodate your participation in this field-based course.

Title: Collaborative and Reproducible Data Science in R - As datasets grow larger and more complex across all areas of science, computational skills are increasingly in high demand. This course introduces a series of practical tools that enable researchers to spend less time wrestling with software or repeating error-prone manual data processing and more time getting research done in efficient and transparent ways that facilitate collaboration and reproducibility. We will work in R/RStudio, primarily with the tidyverse packages and with Git and GitHub integration. Topics covered include 1) tidy data formatting, 2) rearrangement, filtering, exploration and visualization of complex datasets, 3) basic programming for building and automating custom tools, 4) tracking the history of file changes (version control) with Git and GitHub, 5) strategies for effective collaboration on data processing pipelines, and 6) using R Markdown to combine text, equations, code, tables, and figures into reports, websites, and presentations. The course emphasizes practical skill development and will be structured around hands-on (the keyboard) learning.

Adirondack Acidification and Recovery: Dynamics of a Regional Socio-Environmental System. Acid rain through much of the 20th century damaged by terrestrial and aquatic ecosystems of Adirondack ecosystems. Humans activities outside the region drove these impacts on natural resources, which in turn undermined the interests of residents and visitors alike. Though the Adirondack Park model of conserving wild places is often represented as embracing insularity, outside linkages have been central in both cultural and ecological contexts. This seminar will explore social science, natural science, and deeply coupled views of a century of change in the Adirondacks. Readings will draw upon two scholarly books as well as primary literature, while guest experts and instructors will offer their own takes on Adirondack acidification and recovery.
