Cline, who died Friday at age 80 from complications of prostate cancer, followed a successful medical career in Traverse City by combining his two passions - flying and photography - into an award-winning pastime credited by many for raising public awareness about the importance of environmental stewardship to the region.
Cline was born in China and spent almost 13 years with his family there before they returned to the United States and lived in Ohio.
Cline was the first staff doctor at Munson Hospital to serve on its governing board and was a former chairman.
cline, in biology, any gradual change in a particular characteristic of a population of organisms from one end of the geographical range of the population to the other.
In population genetics, a cline is a gradual change of a character or feature (phenotype) in a species over a geographical area.
A ring species is a special kind of cline where the geographical distribution in question is circular in shape, so that the two ends of the cline overlap with one another, giving two adjacent populations that rarely interbreed due to the cumulative effect of the many changes in phenotype along the cline.
