 SEE-U Biosphere 2: Module 12
Until just recently, it was assumed among most European cultures that disturbances were not a common occurrence, with the exception of a single major Noachian flood.
We define disturbances as "any process or condition external to the natural physiology of living organisms that results in the sudden mortality of biomass in a community on a time scale significantly shorter (e.g., several orders of magnitude faster) than that of the accumulation of the biomass" (Huston 1998, p.
As we will discuss during Modules 13 and 14, highly disturbed areas tend to be relatively depauperate in terms of species and also disproportionately comprised of introduced species.

Since independent colleges and universities in Ohio may or may not be participating in the transfer policy, students interested in transferring to independent institutions are encouraged to check with the college or university of their choice regarding transfer agreements.
A Transfer Module completed at one college or university will automatically meet the requirements of the Transfer Module at another college or university once the student is admitted.
Since many degree programs require specific courses that may be taken as a part of the general education or Transfer Module program at an institution, students are encouraged to meet with an academic adviser at the institution to which they plan to transfer early in their academic career.
