An haife Atwater a Los Angeles, California a shekara ta 1942.[1] Mahaifinta injiniya ne kuma mahaifiyarta ƙwararriyar kimiya ce. Atwater na daya daga cikin matan farko da suka yi bincike a kan tekun ta fuskar Geology.[2]

Atwater ta fara karatun ta a shekarar 1960 a Cibiyar Fasaha ta Massachusetts, sannan ta sami B.A. a Geophysics daga Jami'ar California, Berkeley a 1965.[3] Ta sami digiri na uku. (1972) a cikin geophysics na ruwa daga Cibiyar Scripps na Oceanography, Jami'ar California, San Diego. Ita ce darekta na Jami'ar California, Santa Barbara Educational Multimedia Visualization Center inda ta kasance farfesa a fannin kimiyyar ƙasa. Ta kasance farfesa a Cibiyar Fasaha ta Massachusetts kafin ta shiga jami'a a UCSB a 1980. Atwater ya yi ritaya daga UCSB a 2007.[4]

Ta yi bincike kan hanyoyin tsaurin wuta-tectonic da ke da alhakin ƙirƙirar sabon ɓawon ruwa a wuraren shimfida saman teku. A cikin 1968, ta haɗu da rubuta takardar bincike da ke nuna aikin daɗaɗɗa a cikin ɓoyayyen yanayin yada cibiyoyin.[10] Tare da Jack Corliss, Fred Spiess, da Kenneth Macdonald, ta taka muhimmiyar rawa a balaguron balaguron balaguron balaguro wanda ya gano nau'ikan ilimin halitta na maɓuɓɓugan ruwan teku, wanda ya haifar da ganowa yayin aikin RISE na masu yawan zafin jiki na masu shan sigari, iska mai ƙarfi ta ruwa.

A cikin binciken Atwater da ta yi kan yada baragurbi a kusa da tsibiran Galapagos,[11] ta gano cewa an haifar da rarrabuwar kawuna a lokacin da ake yada cibiyoyi a bakin tekun da motsin tectonic ko magma ya dame shi, don haka sai da ta canza hanya don daidaitawa. Wannan ya taimaka wajen bayyana hadadden tsari na shimfidar teku.

Wataƙila an fi sanin Atwater da aikinta akan tarihin tectonic plate na yammacin Arewacin Amurka.[12] Ta rubuta manyan takaddun bincike guda biyu da ke bayyana tarihin juyin halittar tectonic na Arewacin Amurka da matsalolin tectonic na San Andreas Fault, wanda ya taimaka wajen tattara tarihin Layin Laifin San Andreas.[13][14]

Ta kuma yi nazarin juyin halitta na geometric, haɗawa da kwatanta bayanan motsin faranti na duniya tare da bayanan yanayin ƙasa na yanki.
