2009 TOS Fellows

Ellen R.M. Druffel
For advancing the use of natural abundance radiocarbon measurements in marine carbon cycle research.

Marlon Lewis
For seminal contributions advancing our knowledge of ocean optics, physical-biological interactions, and ecology.

Mary Jane Perry
For contributions to the founding and advancement of the sub-discipline of bio-optical oceanography and the education of more than a generation of bio-optics students.

Mary W. Silver
For pioneering research on the ecology of marine organisms, excellence in teaching, mentoring and service to the oceanographic community.

Lynne D. Talley
For advancements in understanding the large scale circulation of the ocean and dedication to the oceanographic community.

2008 TOS Fellow

Charles S. Yentsch
For promoting oceanography through innovation, fundamental discoveries in bio-optics and phytoplankton production, and the visionary founding of enduring oceanographic programs.

2007 TOS Fellow

Charles H. Greene
For seminal contributions to the field of bioacoustics, innovation and excellence in teaching, and service to the oceanographic community.

2006 TOS Fellow

Grant Ingram
For insightful studies of physical processes and physical/biological coupling in extreme polar regions and for untiring service to the oceanographic community.

We are sad to report that Dr. Ingram passed away unexpectedly in June 2007. Read more about Grant's life, accomplishments, and the scholarship established in his name.

John J. Cullen
For fundamental contributions to our understanding of the influence of environmental conditions on phytoplankton function in the ocean

Margaret L. Delaney
For paleoceanographic research in nutrient and carbon cycling and service to the oceanographic and scientific ocean drilling communities

Robert A. Duce
For research on the global biogeochemistry of trace elements in the ocean/atmosphere system

Michael J. McPhaden
