Christian P. de Moustier (M'86) received the Ph.D. in oceanography (Applied Ocean Science) at the University of California at San Diego in 1985.

He is an Associate Research Oceanographer and Lecturer at the Marine Physical Laboratory, Scripps Institution of Oceanography (SIO), conducting research in signal and image processing techniques applied to sonar data, and in underwater acoustics with emphasis on physics of bottom-interacting sound and sound reverberation in the ocean. He is also an Academic Administrator for SIO's Ship Operations and Marine Technical Support, providing scientific direction and specifying engineering solutions for shipboard instrumentation needs (computers, sonars, underway sensors) and software programming requirements. He serves as a Lecturer in UCSD's Electrical and Computer Engineering Department, supervising graduate students working toward the Ph.D. degree.

Dr. de Moustier is a fellow of the Acoustical Society of America and is a member of the IEEE Oceanic Engineering Society (IEEE OES) and the American Geophysical Union. He has been serving as Associate Editor for the IEEE Journal of Oceanic E ngineering since 1990, for topics related to seafloor acoustic remote sensing, bathymetry mapping and surveying, and sonar image and signal processing applications. He served on the Administrative Committee of the IEEE OES from 1990 to 1993 and 1995 to 1997 and was reelected in 1998 to serve until 2001.
