Adolf Bückmann

from Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Adolf Bückmann (born January 17, 1900 in Elze , Alfeld district ; † December 7, 1993 in Hamburg ) was a German zoologist , fishery scientist , professor and head of the Helgoland Biological Institute (BAH).

Life

Bückmann came from an old Protestant pastor family and was the fourth child of the superintendent D. Rudolf Bückmann and his wife Elisabeth, née. Kreusler was born in Elze, Lower Saxony. He lived through his school and high school days in Harburg and Hanover and, still drafted as a teenager, the end of the First World War as a soldier.

From 1919 he studied in Leipzig, a. a. with Professor Georg Grimpe , the founder and editor of the "Animal World of the North and Baltic Seas". This promoted the marine biological interests of the student Adolf Bückmann, with his sister Elisabeth born. Bückmann he was married. In Leipzig, Bückmann became a member of the Normannia fraternity (today Normannia-Leipzig zu Marburg). The inflation forced him to continue his studies in Hamburg, where he could stay with the relatives. He received his doctorate there in 1923 under the plankton researcher Hans Lohmann with a topic about appendicularia, for which animal group he was claimed as a specialist until the end of his life.

In 1923 he got a job at the Biological Institute of Helgoland to study the population dynamics of farmed fish, in particular the consequences of the war-related large-scale experiment of years of interruption in fishing. In 1924 he married his fellow student Dr. Hildegard born Thomae. Four children were born on Heligoland. He was an admirer and promoter of the works of the social Darwinist poet Erwin Guido Kolbenheyer , who became the godfather of his daughter Hildegard. The son Prof. Dr. Detlef Bückmann also became a biologist and was rector of Ulm University from 1979 to 1983 . The hard work at sea on research and fishing vessels on the one hand required the most subtle mathematical-statistical methodology for analysis on the other. The result is one of numerous publications: 1938: "About the maximum yield of fishing and the laws of organic growth", which deals with the sustainable use of the North Sea stocks.

In 1940 Adolf Bückmann was able to become curator of the Biological Institute on Heligoland. The position could be filled again because the brilliant biologist and treasurer of the NSDAP local group Alfred Wulff had to leave the institution and the party because of his homosexuality. It is unclear who denounced him. Adolf Bückmann was a member of the anti-Semitic Young German Order as early as the 1920s . He had been a member of the SA since 1933 and was only accepted into the party in 1937 because of the NSDAP's membership ban. In contrast to his colleagues at the Biological Institute, he was not particularly active in the party.

After the destruction of Heligoland in 1945, he found shelter in Wedel . From there he was able to continue the fisheries biological analysis of the stocks by examining the stocks that were landed and the catch data at the Altona fish market.

In 1948, Bückmann became head of department at the Max Planck Institute for Marine Biology in Wilhelmshaven and, in 1953, director of the Helgoland Biological Institute in personal union with a chair for fishery biology at the University of Hamburg and at the same time chairman of the German Scientific Commission for Marine Research. The institution worked after the war-related destruction of Heligoland in List on Sylt. From 1960 he rebuilt it on Heligoland, at the same time with a "head station" in Hamburg, which was supposed to maintain contact with the university and the federal authorities, and at the same time the possibility of temporarily seconding scientists to the mainland. After the end of this rebuilding, Bückmann devoted himself to his job as a university professor for hydrobiology and fisheries science until his retirement in 1968 . He was a member of the Max Planck Society .

Adolf Bückmann died on December 7, 1993 in Hamburg.
