Biology Forums - Study Force

Hi can you help me find good information for this study guide:


I. Ecological Concepts –
a. Ecosystems
 b. Organism Relationships
c. Biodiversity
d. Trophic relationships (e.g. food chain; food web)
e. Energy flows and cycles
f. Biomes
g. Population biology
h. Evolution
 i. Ecological succession

II. Environmental Impacts –
 a. Human population dynamics
b. Global climate change
 c. Pollution – physical, chemical, and biological aspects
d. Agricultural
e. Industrial 
f. Habitat destruction
g. Land degradation

III. Environmental Management and Conservation –
 a. Renewable and nonrenewable resources
b. Agricultural practices
c. Pesticides and pest control
d. Soil conservation and land use practices
e. Air pollution control
 f. Water quality and supply
 g. Wastewater treatment
h. Solid and hazardous waste
i. Environmental risk assessment


IV. Social Processes and the Environment –
a. Environmental justice
b. Policy, planning and decision making
 c. Global environmental governance
 d. Differing culture and societal values

Most of these topics are covered in the textbook:  Essential Environment: The Science Behind the Stories

I'll PM a member on this forum that has some powerpoints that may be helpful to you

I have the PowerPoint presentations for that textbook, but they're huge files, so I'm not sure if it's possible to upload them. There's also a ton of chapters. I think Catracho would benefit if they were individual word documents instead

Please upload a few when you get a chance

did the topic starter get what he wanted?

no, i am still waiting for you guys to help me

These are the notes I have.

Attachment 1 is for Environmental Impacts
Attachment 2 is for Environmental Management and Conservation
Attachment 3 is for Social Processes and the Environment
The rest are for Ecological Concepts

Really hope this hits the spot
