Students will learn about the structure and function of coniferous trees (i.e. reproduction, development, anatomy, morphology and physiology), the ecology and evolution of coniferous trees including both their present and past uses, and the preservation of coniferous trees on the landscape including the importance of trees and how to manage for species using both modern science and traditional knowledge. The laboratory component surveys a selection of Canadian, North American, and introduced coniferous tree species.
