Thanks for everyone for presenting your final projects! Email me your write up and slides if you haven't already. Also - Homeworks #9 & #10 DUE TODAY if you want full credit.

You guys have until TUESDAY MAY 13th to make up anything you've missed before I have to process and submit grades - so MAKE UP HOMEWORK if you haven't already for up to 1/2 credit. There was a dropbox security leak that inactivated the links where the homework was, but I relinked to them from the syllabus so you can find them there.

If you have any questions about end of class logistics please contact me sooner than later!

Meet me in this parking lot behind McCone at 9:00am Th if you guys want to go on the last field trip. This map shows how to get to the parkinglot from McCone:

We'll wonder up the trails in these hills and maybe get as far as Strawberry Canyon before we have to turn back for class. As usual, call me at 415-278-1220 if you can't find the group.

The last two homeworks: Homework #9 &
Homework #10 are posted. Both are due May 6th. The link to the observations needed in Homework #9 is here.

Also, here's the schedule for Final Presentations. So far everyone has their first choice. If you're not on this list it either means you didn't turn in Homework #8 or I accidentally overlooked you. In either case - contact me ASAP so we can make sure your on track with your final project!

Field Trip Thursday before class 9am East Bay

Here's some details on the Tilden Bioblitz: http://www.inaturalist.org/projects/2014-tilden-nature-area-bioblitz

Homework #8 is posted here - just a paragraph about your final project so please turn in (via email) THIS THURSDAY.
and if you want to go to Twin Peaks on Wednesday to look for Mission Blue Butterflies, meet at the Mission 24th Street BART station at 2pm (Liam can only make 2pm) and I'll give you a ride up or meet at the Twin Peaks parking lot at 2:30pm. Please add a comment here if you can make it and/or can drive.

Homework 7 is here - remember I'm gone next week so two different guest lectures I hope you'll enjoy on Tuesday and Thursday.

Hope everyone is enjoying Spring Break! The Spring Break Extra Credit is posted here
I hope some of you can make the 24hr Bioblitz from noon to noon Friday and Saturday (featured on KQED's Forum here). Find me in the Crissy field data center anytime during the BioBlitz or call me at 415-278-1220, directions here

I'll be in the Data Center, this building:

There are tons of activities, but the most open is the Crissy Field inventory from 9am to 1pm on Saturday. I really hope you can make it!

Hi Everyone,

Low tide on Sunday is at 11:00AM so lets meet at Pillar Point at 10:30AM. Its 1 hour from Berkeley so hit the road by 9:30AM. Please comment on this post if you (a) plan on coming and (b) need a ride or can drive
Charlie (guiltyascharged) can you still drive? I can drive but I'd prefer to meet people at the Mission 24th St BART station in SF. But if people need rides I can come to campus. Here's directions:
Once you park walk to the reef (yellow X) where others should be easy to find (so no need to wait in the parkinglot) call me at 415-278-1220 if there's a probelm.

Bring warm clothes it can get really chilly in the tide pools!

Homework #5 is here due next Tuesday and
Homework #6 is here due the following Thursday, these homeworks are related so I'd get started over the weekend. Also for the Briones Field Trip meet at the West Circle at 11:30 am or Briones Park at 12:00am. RSVP if you're planning on going so we can make sure rides are coordinated!

Despite the rain, we had a great field trip to the Berkeley Marina, thanks to everyone who came - so far over 50 species logged, you can check out the observations here
