| dbo:abstract | Eville Gorham FRSC (* 15. Oktober 1925 in Halifax; † 14. Januar 2020 in Minneapolis) war ein kanadisch-US-amerikanischer Wissenschaftler, dessen Forschungsschwerpunkt im Bereich der Chemie des Süßwassers und der Ökologie und Biogeochemie von Mooren lag. Dabei entdeckte Gorham unter anderem den Einfluss von Saurem Regen auf die Versauerung von Seen und die Bedeutung der Biomagnifikation radioaktiver Isotope in nördlichen Nahrungsketten. Ersteres führte zum Erlass von Gesetzen und zur Umgestaltung von Kraftwerken, um die entstehenden Abgase von Schwefelsäure zu reinigen, letzteres war ein früher Schritt in Richtung eines Vertrags über das Verbot von Kernwaffenversuchen in der Atmosphäre, im Weltraum und unter Wasser. Gorham betonte, dass wissenschaftliche Entdeckungen oft das Ergebnis von Zufällen sind und ermutigte Schüler dazu, nach den Möglichkeiten zu suchen, die der Zufall bietet. Er wurde mit der Benjamin Franklin Medal und dem G. Evelyn Hutchinson Award ausgezeichnet, war Mitglied der National Academy of Sciences und der American Academy of Arts and Sciences und beeinflusste die Karrieren anderer Wissenschaftler. (de) Eville Gorham FRSC (October 15, 1925 — January 14, 2020) was a Canadian-American scientist whose focus has been understanding the chemistry of fresh waters and the ecology and biogeochemistry of peatlands. In the process, Gorham made a number of practical contributions that included discovering the influence of acid rain in lake acidification, plus the importance of the biological magnification of radioactive fallout isotopes in northern food chains. The former led to legislation and redesign of the power plants of the world to scrub sulfur, and the latter was an early step toward the establishment of an atmospheric nuclear test ban treaty. Gorham emphasized that discovery in science is often the result of chance and serendipity, and encouraged students to watch for the opportunities that chance provides. He was recognized by the National Academy of Sciences as a renaissance scholar and has influenced the careers of others.

Gorham maakte een aantal praktische bijdragen, waaronder het ontdekken van de invloed van zure regen op de verzuring van meren, plus het belang van de biomagnificatie van radioactieve neerslagisotopen in noordelijke voedselketens. Het eerste leidde tot wetgeving en herontwerp van energiecentrales wereldwijd om zwavel te wassen, en het laatste was een vroege stap in de richting van de totstandkoming van een verdrag voor een verbod op kernproeven in de atmosfeer. Gorham benadrukte dat ontdekkingen in de wetenschap vaak het resultaat zijn van toeval en serendipiteit, en moedigde studenten aan om te kijken naar de kansen die toeval biedt. Hij werd door de National Academy of Sciences erkend als een renaissancegeleerde en beïnvloedde de carrières van anderen.
