GOLDMAN
Evelyne de Amezaga Goldman
Evelyne de Amezaga Goldman died from a fall in her home on Feb. 19, 2003, at the age of 61.
She was born on April 15, 1942, in German-occupied France. Her father Mario had been captured with his French army unit and then escaped to join the French resistance. She came to Davis in March 1962 to study mathematics at UC Davis. She graduated in 1966 and began her career as a programmer in the zoology department.
She continued her career in limnology (the study of inland water) as a senior systems analyst in the division of environmental studies until her retirement in the early 1990s. As a systems analyst and member of the Tahoe and Castle Lake Research Groups, she developed some of the first programs utilizing the early campus computers for reducing large sets of limnological data, some of which are still used by the two research groups.
She was effective in advising graduate students and was an author and major contributor to a pioneering paper in 1968 on Lake Maggiore in Italy. In this paper, she demonstrated the utility of computer use in cluster analysis of a large data set and developed a graphic program for contouring two-dimensional data with time. This study was followed by authorship on other research papers over the years dealing with the science of lakes.
She traveled extensively and regularly attended the meetings of the International Congress of Limnology. She often participated in field work and made several research trips to Central America and Lake Baikal in Russian Siberia with her husband and his students.
She is survived by her husband, Charles Goldman of Davis; brother, Jean de Amezaga, and sister, Mireille de Amezaga, both of France. She is also survived by her stepdaughters, Margaret Goldman Kimmel of Los Angeles, Olivia Goldman of San Francisco and Ann Goldman Manning of Sausalito, and her friend, Shirley Aldous Goldman of Davis.
A service will begin at 3 p.m. Saturday at St. Martin's Episcopal Church, 640 Hawthorn Lane.
