[14][15][16] This concept states that an ecosystem may experience a dramatic shift if a keystone species is removed, even though that species was a small part of the ecosystem by measures of biomass or productivity. When his church, The First Church of Boston, moved into Unitarianism, Paine followed that path. The idea of trophic cascades was presented in the Tansley Lecture to the British Ecological Society (6). The dual themes of experimental ecology and process-oriented ecology were to be the hallmark of RTP’s subsequent academic contributions. Includes citations for all sources. Provo, UT: Ancestry.com Operations Inc, 2005. Early adopters of RTP’s 1966 paper on the control of diversity by predators (3) included famous papers from 1966 and 1967 on species diversity gradients (4) and the limits of similarity between species (5). Robert Treat Paine III was one of the great ecologists of history, whose legacy through research and mentoring reshaped the discipline, and helped it evolve from descriptive natural history to an experimental and quantitative science. Although the evidence is still limited, a growing body of research suggests music may have beneficial effects for diseases such as Parkinson’s. RTP’s gift was to take a simple field experiment on marine invertebrates and turn it into a broad lesson in ecological organization that struck a chord across almost all ecosystems.

Dr. Paine III has more experience with Obstructive Lung Disease and Interstitial Lung Disease than other specialists in his area. RTP grew up in Boston as an avid naturalist and bird watcher, and attended Harvard. Astronomers thought they’d finally figured out where gold and other heavy elements in the universe came from. In addition to food web theory, these experiments focused on the role of disturbance and patch size on diversity, interaction strengths and their importance to community stability, the role of predation in controlling primary production, causes of zonation along physical gradients, and many more insights. [1] Paine and his work are featured prominently in the 2018 documentary film The Serengeti Rules. [17] Paine also coined the term "trophic cascade" to describe the top-down effects that occur in ecosystems when an important species is introduced or removed. As a result, the concept of keystone species is one of the simplest, yet most fundamental, in community ecology. Robert Treat Paine III passed away June 13 in Seattle surrounded by family and friends. Others were key to community composition, and without them the communities collapsed. His father, also named Robert, was a curator at the Museum of Fine Arts in Boston and a descendant of Robert Treat Paine… This concept has found strong support across many ecosystems, and over the ensuing decades has focused attention of the role of humans in controlling diversity, abundance, and productivity (7). [U.S.]—died May 11, 1814, Boston), American politician, jurist, member of the Continental Congress (1774–78), and signer of the Declaration of Independence..

Indeed, RTP was chosen as the Chair—and performed exceptionally effectively—of the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration Fisheries’ Salmon Recovery Science Review Panel, as well as other committees assessing environmental impacts. 1. And once the keystone species were perturbed, dramatic changes cascaded down the food web. A British cartoonist pictures America as an Indian woman having the Intolerable Acts forced down her throat. He was working on papers up until the last few weeks, and even in a weakened state could be roused by interesting natural history or a provocative ecological conjecture. She was born May 15, 1744, and died June 6, 1816. Robert Treat Paine III (1933–2016), An Outsized American Naturalist Brian R. Silliman,1 Peter Kareiva,2 and Catherine A. Pfister3 1. Robert Treat "Bob" Paine III (April 13, 1933 – June 13, 2016) was an American ecologist who spent most of his career at the University of Washington. RTP worked intently with mathematicians to turn his intuition about ecological process into well-tested theory, but also returned the favor by helping them to savor the messy details of fieldwork. RTP was a descendent of a celebrated clan in Boston that included Thomas Paine and Robert Treat Paine Sr., a signer of the US Declaration of Independence, as well as the great mathematician George Birkhoff. This university on the rocks produced a steady stream of papers, doctorates, inspiration, and an academic genealogy that spans ecology, evolution, invertebrate biology, mathematical biology, and environmental biology. AU - Kareiva, Peter. It has become a very popular concept in conservation biology. He passed away on 11 August 1910 in Waltham, Middlesex, Massachusetts, America. WikiTree profile Paine-463 created through the import of wikitree.ged on Aug 1, 2011 by Abby Brown. [8], Paine's doctoral research thesis was on the ecology of living brachipods. [6] Having taken some courses in zoology and ecology at Michigan, his interests and studies changed after taking a course about freshwater invertebrates taught by ecologist Frederick E. [1] Ed Yong wrote that "by encouraging independence and prizing fieldwork, Paine mentored an entire generation of superstar ecologists. His initial graduate work was in paleontology at the University of Michigan, but he became fascinated by ecology in courses led by ecologist Fred Smith, so ended up doing an ecological study of a modern-day brachiopod. In Memoriam: Robert Treat Paine III (1933–2016), An Outsized American Naturalist. 14, 1965 . Paine was an experimentalist, a theoretician, a practitioner, and proponent of the “ecology of place,” and a deep believer in the importance of natural history to ecological understanding. Robert Treat Paine was a Congregationalist and a devout Christian. (#24650) Keystone species have effects on communities or ecosystems that are much larger than their abundances would suggest. He has left many strong interactions behind, and a cascade of admiration for his contributions to our science and our lives. RTP bounded off his chair and raced into the bush toward the tape player, yelling “Chuck-will’s widow!”—proving both his complete command of bird watching detail and the value of a good, well-placed experiment. After a postdoctorate at The Scripps Research Institute in San Diego, California, he took a faculty position at the University of Washington, where he began working on the complex invertebrate communities of the highly productive and species-rich northeastern Pacific intertidal zone. There, the work of starting, monitoring, and maintaining various intertidal experiments intersected with long conversations about natural history, community ecology, and the more prosaic business of camp housekeeping in the perpetual fog of the outer coast of Washington. [6] He was fascinated by biology from a very young age. In light of recent results, they’re not so sure. In a short note published early in 1969, RTP coined a term that has since become intrinsic to the lexicon of ecology (2). Edited by Edward W. Hanson (Boston: Massachusetts Historical Society, 2005) Shipton, Clifford K. Sibley’s Harvard Graduates. Here, RTP focused on the stability of ecosystems with hundreds of species or more, after perturbation of one or a few top predators or grazers. Paine, Robert Treat. One of RTP’s gifts was to marry patterns of species abundance with the results of field manipulations, and discern ecological processes that transcended his focal taxa or community. 2. [8] Paine later entered graduate school at the University of Michigan, intending to study paleontology. wrote the paper. Smith. Robert Treat Paine (1773-1811). Researchers are still trying to understand what causes this strong correlation between neural and social networks.

[6][11], Paine retired in the late 1990s but continued to be active as a professor emeritus at the University of Washington. In this, RTP found a simple metric for predation by a large abundant species: By turning over purple sea stars, he could record the diets of hundreds of individuals. Adoption of the idea came very quickly. Another enduring dimension of his legacy was his mentoring and inspiration of several generations of graduate students and postdocorates in the adventure of working out the complex wiring of species interactions, all within the wild dynamics of natural ecosystems. RTP established a long-term research site at Tatoosh Island in Washington, in collaboration with the local Makah Native Americans.

This led to a simple question about the impact of predation on intertidal communities, which RTP studied by experimentally manipulating densities of purple sea stars along rocky shores. The parade of studies discussed in this paper painted a heuristic model of the eddies of ecological interaction in the sea of species. "[21] Paine's former students and postdocs include Paul Dayton, Bruce Menge and Jane Lubchenco. And there was a bevy of students, researchers, and visitors clamoring for the honor of being included in a Tatoosh Trip. [20][21] Paine's research helped popularise field manipulation experiments, sometimes called "kick-it-and-see ecology", at a time when field ecologists tended only to observe natural ecosystems.
