Raymond Lindeman (1915-1942)

Lindeman completed his PhD at the University of Minnesota. While a post-doc at Yale with G. Evelyn Hutchinson, Lindeman submitted a chapter of his thesis for publication in the journal Ecology. His manuscript was initially rejected for its generalisations. After his death in June 1942, his manuscript was published in Ecology and it has become a seminal work in ecology and limnology.
