Dunlop’s best-known research has been in the fundamental magnetic properties of rocks and minerals and in Precambrian paleomagnetism and plate tectonics.  His book “Rock Magnetism: Fundamentals and Frontiers”, co-authored with his long-time colleague and wife Özden Özdemir, remains the standard text in the field.

Dunlop served AGU as president of the Geomagnetism, Paleomagnetism and Electromagnetism section from 1992-94, was the Edward Bullard Lecturer in 2011, and sat on the Union Officers Nominations Committee (2004-05) and the Honors and Recognition Committee (2006-08).  He was elected a Fellow of AGU in 1987.
