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 Warm Core Rings (of the Gulf Stream and Kuroshio). He has served on the
awards nomination committee and on the Editor Search Committee for Geophysical
Research Letters for AGU. He has also served on the advisory committee
for Ocean Sciences at NSF and on the advisory panel of the NOAA program of
Climate Change Data and Detection.
