Published course information, generated as a static page and SVG graph.

Course Graph

Prerequisite flow into the course, and dependencies flow out from it.

Co-requisites are treated as prerequisite links, and equivalent or cross-listed courses are merged into shared course nodes. The simplified view shows one prerequisite level above the course and one dependency level downstream.

Processes and patterns in the evolution of microscopic and macroscopic life through time: extinction, evolution and diversification as recognized from the fossil record. Major events in the history of life. The relationship of biotas to depositional systems: paleoecology, biostratigraphy and paleobiogeography. The use of statistical approaches to describe, and test hypotheses about, the fossil record. Laboratories and field trips provide illustrative fossil examples.
