Biographical Note

W. Maurice Ewing (1906-1974) was a marine geologist, oceanographer and geophysicist. He worked at Lehigh University, the Woods Hole Oceanographic Institution, the Lamont-Doherty Geophysical Observatory of Columbia University and the University of Texas and helped to found the Marine Geophysics Institute. He is well known for his theory of ice ages, his exploration of mid-ocean ridges and his work in geophysical instrumentation.
