Description

Biogeography is the fascinating study of how the Earth’s living organisms are distributed across different environments. It examines how factors like climate, topography, and geography influence the diversity and distribution of plants, animals, and other organisms. This course delves into the principles that shape these patterns, exploring both historical and contemporary perspectives. Through studying the ways in which species adapt to their surroundings and migrate across regions, you'll develop a deeper understanding of how ecosystems function globally.

From the tropical rainforests of South America to the icy expanses of the Arctic, this course explores how geographical features play a pivotal role in the survival and spread of species. Biogeography isn't just about nature—it's about the intricate relationship between life and the Earth's changing landscapes. Whether you're interested in conservation, environmental science, or simply intrigued by the natural world, this course offers a clear, engaging introduction to the forces that shape life on our planet. With a well-rounded foundation in biogeography, you'll be able to appreciate the complexity and beauty of the planet's biological networks.
