Why Is Stanley A. Cain Influential?
(Suggest an Edit or Addition)According to Wikipedia, Stanley Adair Cain was a botanist and pioneer of plant ecology and environmental studies. Biography Cain graduated from Butler University with B.S. in 1924 and from the University of Chicago with M.S. in 1927 and with PhD in 1930. His doctoral dissertation on the heath balds of the Great Smoky Mountains was based upon field work in 1929 and 1930. His doctoral advisor was George D. Fuller . At Butler University's department of botany, Cain was an instructor from 1924 to 1927, an assistant professor from 1927 to 1930, and an associate professor from 1930 to 1931. At Indiana University, he was an assistant professor of botany from 1931 to 1933 and a research associate in the Waterman Institute from 1933 to 1935. Cain was a plant sociologist, during the summers from 1935 to 1938 at Cold Spring Harbor Laboratory. He was an associate professor from 1935 to 1946 at the University of Tennessee. There he had a year's leave of absence as a Guggenheim Fellow for the academic year 1940–1941 when he worked on his treatise Foundations of Plant Geography. In 1945 Cain was a lieutenant colonel in the U.S. Army and served as chief of the scientific section of the American Army University in Biarritz in the French Basque Country.
