History
Stan Rowe was a professor of Plant Ecology at the University of Saskatchewan. A prominent Canadian ecologist, Rowe won the J.B. Harkin Conservation award in 1994 for his significant contribution to protecting Canada’s parks and wilderness areas. The Canadian Botanical Association established an award in his name, honouring his contribution as the first Chair of the Ecological Section of the Association. He retired in 1990 and passed away in 2004. (from Home Place: Essays on Ecology by Stan Rowe, 2002)
