珍妮﹒古道爾
Jane Goodall:關于著名動物生態學家珍妮﹒古道爾(Jane Goodall)的經歷,說來非常動人。古道爾1934出生于倫敦。她從小痴心于動物,愛讀杜立特寫的動物故事書。她知道非洲的哺乳類動物最丰富,很想到那里去。她沒有錢,就去當女招待和女秘書,攢足了旅費錢就啟程到了非洲的肯尼亞。
古道爾一到肯尼亞,就去找著名的猿人類考古學家路易斯﹒里基(Louis Leakey),向他要求給她個和動物打交道的工作。里基在一次保護野生動物的考察旅行中,不經心地考驗了她對野生動物的知識后,同意請她當他的助理秘書。后來又看到她要和動物為伍的立志很堅,就派她到坦桑尼亞去觀察野生黑猩猩群。這是因為里基認為黑猩猩在動物中與人的親緣最相近似,它的基因組有98%與人類的相同,通過過黑猩猩生態習性的觀察,可以為人類的遠祖情況提供線索。于是這個沒有受過訓練的姑娘,單槍匹馬,就闖入了觀察黑猩猩這個從來沒有人嘗試過、也沒有人敢嘗試的科學領域之中。這是1960年的事,古道爾芳齡26。
Dr. Likens自制烤鸭'
Dr. Likens' rearch focus on the ecology and biogeochemistry of forest and aquatic ecosystems, primarily through long-term studies at the Hubbard Brook Experimental Forest, in the White Mountains of New Hampshire. He was the co-founder of the Hubbard Brook Ecosystem Study in 1963, which has shed light on critical links between ecosystem function and land-u practices. He and his colleagues were the first scientists to document the link between the combustion of fossil fuels and an increa in the acidity of precipitation in North America. His findings have influenced policy makers, guided and motivated scientific studies, and incread public awareness of human-accelerated environmental change.
On 11 June 2003, the Asahi Glass Foundation announced that Dr. Likens was a co-recipient of the 2003 Blue Planet Prize for outstanding scientific rearch that helps to solve global environmental problems. Dr. Likens was awarded the distinction along with Dr. F. H. Bormann, his long-term collaborator in the Hubbard Brook Ecosystem Study in N
ew Hampshire. The Asahi Glass Foundation aspires for the Blue Planet Prize to be recognized as the environmental equivalent of the Nobel Prize. In 2002 he was awarded the 2001 National Medal of Science, the nation's highest science honor, for his contributions to the field of ecology

Howard T. Odum
生物圈的概念Howard T. Odum attended the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill, where his father was a professor of sociology, until he enlisted in the U.S. Air Force during WWII.Among the extensive list of prestigious awards Odum received in his lifetime are the Institute de la Vie prize and the Crafoord Prize for his work in global biogeochemistry and systems modeling. Odum said what might be the common principle throughout his career has been "the 'maximum empower principle' - showing that systems are lf-organized to u the optimum efficiency to generate the maximum power." He believed that this theory applies not only to biogeochemistry but also to the people around him and his own life..He is the young brother of E.P.Odum and analyd the Silver Spring.

Community ecologist. Argued for a holistic view of community dynamics. Decades of field rearch funded by the Carnegie Institute of Washington. Collaborated with V. Shelford. He put forward the theory: any plant community must go through the process,from pioneer stage to climax stage which is stabilization relatively
