Outline (in English)

A variety of microbes co-exist in natural environments, such as soil and water ecosystems. These microbes play important roles in the key element cycles in the environments, being indispensable to maintain the homeostasis of the earth. In addition, they have various influences on the existence of plants and animals. In this class, I lecture on microbial ecology, including the character and classification of microbes, the symbiosis of microbes with plants and animals, the microbial behavior in extreme environments, the microbial community analyses, the possible use of microbes for the global issues, e.g., SDGs. The learning objectives are (i) to gain the fundamental knowledge about microbes, (ii) to understand the distinctive characters of various microbes in natural and engineered environments, (iii) to expand an understanding of analytical tools in environmental microbiology and (iv) to learn the roles of microbes in maintenance of the homeostasis and environment of the earth. The standard learning activities outside of classroom are assumed to be 4 hours of the preparation and review for one class. Reviewing important information, such as technical term, using the textbook and references is necessary. The grading criteria/policy is to comprehensively evaluate the achievements based on the quiz performed in each class (40%) and the final examination and/or term paper (60%).
