Paul S. Martin

Paul S. Martin was a professor emeritus of geosciences at the University of Arizona. A Pleistocene expert, he developed the idea that overhunting drove North America’s large Ice Age mammals extinct. He was also internationally renowned for his research on the long-term ecological and climatic records contained in packrat middens. He passed away in 2010.
