Synergistics:
T. Joyce served as department chair of physical oceanography at WHOI
from 1998-2002, has helped to develop and lead the WOCE Hydrographic Program as
director of an international project office (1989-1996) and prior to that
served as a member of the US WOCE Science Steering Committee. He has been
active in the MIT/WHOI education program beginning with teaching of one of the
core courses and advising nine students (5 M.S., 4 Ph.D.). He has worked in the
development of oceanographic applications of the shipboard acoustic Doppler
profiler from an early commercial model and led the growth of the WHOI CTD
group in its early years of existence. He has served as an associate editor of
JGR Oceans and been co-editor of a special volume of DSR (1992) dealing with
