We present initial results of a survey of the FUV spectra of disk-accreting cataclysmic variables obtained with the Far Ultraviolet Spectroscopic Explorer (FUSE).

FUSE covers the 905 - 1188 Å range at spectral resolutions ≃0.1 Å. To date, FUSE has observed more than 65 cataclysmic variables (CVs). Publicly-available data include observations of 11 dwarf novae (DN), 15 non-magnetic novalikes (NLs), 7 intermediate polars and DQ Her stars, at least 15 polars, and 4 super-soft X-ray binaries.
