Thomas G. Muir is the Director’s Fellow at the Applied Research Laboratories, The University of Texas (UT) at Austin. He studied physics and mechanical en- gineering at UT Austin, earning a PhD in 1971. He has long been a scientist at the Applied Research Laboratories as
well as a scientist at NATO’s Supreme Allied Commander Atlantic (SACLANT) Antisubmarine Warfare (ASW) Re- search Centre in La Spezia, Italy (1986-1989); a Professor of Physics and Chair Professor of Mine Warfare at the US Naval Postgraduate School (1997-2003); and a Principal Scientist at the National Center for Physical Acoustics (2003-2010). He is an Acoustical Society of America Fellow. His research interests are in underwater acoustics, seismic acoustics, and infrasound.
David L. Bradley received a PhD in me- chanical engineering from The Catholic University of America. His work career includes US Navy-supported research; Laboratory Directorship at the NATO Undersea Research Centre, La Spezia, Italy; and research/academic activity
at Pennsylvania State University’s Applied Research Labo- ratory. A Professor of Acoustics, he is funded by the Office of Naval Research. He has served on review panels for the National Academy of Sciences and has been the editor of the U.S. Navy Journal of Underwater Acoustics since 2011. A Fellow of the Acoustical Society of America, he has chaired Society committees and served as President.
