Abstract/Contents

Abstract: This is a set of modules intended to teach students rocky shore zonation through the lens of a historical study at Stanford University's Hopkins Marine Station (Pacific Grove, CA, USA). The included lecture slides, labs, video links, pre-class assignments, and references are intended to (1) introduce Hopkins Marine Station and the historical study (initiated by Willis Hewatt in the 1930s), (2) engage students in collaborative data collection from photoquadrats on the Hewatt transect, and have them visualize their results, and (3) discuss the use of historical re-surveys for inferring the consequences of climate change on organisms.
