RUDDIMAN, THOMAS, an eminent grammarian and scholar, the son of a respectable farmer, was born in the parish of Boyndie, Banffshire, in October 1674. He received the grammatical part of his education at the parish school, and, in November 1690, he obtained, by his superior knowledge of Latin, the first bursary in King’s College, Aberdeen.

University of Wisconsin climate scientist and modeler Steve Vavrus has modelled the land use greenhouse gas impacts during the early Holocene, and recently led a study examining Marine Isotope Stage 19 (MIS19), an interglacial period around 770,000 years ago, which has emerged as the best Holocene analogue (Vavrus et al. 2018). Inputting the Earth’...
Forest clearing is central for the Ruddiman hypothesis, and while ecologists and botanists have used pollen for decades to recreate past land changes, new computational capacities and modelling have greatly expanded their research for historical forest clearing. University of Plymouth paleoecologist Jesse Woodbridge carried out the data synthesis f...
"Unexpectedly large impact of forest management and vegetation on global biomass," (Erb et al. 2018), ties in even more directly with Ruddiman’s carbon release estimates. Lead author and socioecologist Karlheinz Erb of Vienna’s University of Natural Resources and Life Sciences, says he and colleagues encountered significant baseline data gaps for t...
Woodwell Climate Research scientist Richard Houghton, an expert on the global carbon budget, also feels Erb’s extension of Ruddiman’s historical approach has promise for mitigation. Houghton is not a participant in the Ruddiman discourse, and while he understands humans have been altering landscapes for thousands of years lowering carbon stocks in ...
DeFries feels that Ruddiman’s line of investigation underscores the importance interdisciplinary collaboration for finding mitigation applications, as well as historical estimates. “If the goal is to use our science to help think through the problems in the world—which include climate change and biodiversity loss and how to produce enough food for ...
Ruddiman earned an undergraduate degree in geology in 1964 at Williams College, and a Ph.D. in marine geology from Columbia University in 1969. Ruddiman worked at the US Naval Oceanographic Office from 1969 to 1976, and at Columbia's Lamont–Doherty Earth Observatory from 1976 to 1991.
