Dr. Dushaw began his career with the analysis and oceanographic interpretation of tomographic data collected during the 1987 Reciprocal Tomography Experiment (RTE87) in the North Pacific. For the past few years he has worked on the tidal variations detected tomographically during the 1991-1992 Acoustic Mid-Ocean Dynamics Experiment (AMODE) in the North Atlantic. In addition, Dr. Dushaw has taken the lead in the analysis of long-range acoustic data collected by SOSUS arrays during the Acoustic Thermometry of Ocean Climate (ATOC) project, which has continued with the auspices of ONR as the North Pacific Acoustic Laboratory (NPAL). Dr. Dushaw has authored numerous papers and reports on the oceanographic and acoustic problems addressed by ocean acoustic tomography. Dr. Dushaw was a postdoctoral research scientist at APL from 1992-1994 and joined the Laboratory staff in 1994.
