Subject does not meet the guidelines of WP:ACADEMIC and does not appear to have been the non-trivial subject of multiple independent reliable published sources. The list of external links given only prove that he exists, and existence does not equal notability. KDS 4444 Talk  12:26, 16 November 2015 (UTC)

 Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion and clearer consensus.
 * Weak keep. An h-index of 37 meets WP:NACADEMICS#1 in most fields, and I do not think that marine biology is one of the exceptions (though it is probably more borderline than some). The article, though, could do with some fairly thorough improvement (and a title correction) - as it stands, it would not be much of a loss to Wikipedia.
