This project has two objectives:  to study the formation                   processes of the intermediate depth water which has its origins                 in the Labrador Sea, and to study the various solutions to the                  non-linear equations governing thermohaline circulations in the                 ocean.  In the former, an analysis of the data from the North                   Atlantic suggests that buoyancy forcing is the primary cause of                 the water mass formation.  A simple model will be constructed to                elucidate the physical processes.  In the second aspect, it is                  known that several mathematical solutions to the thermohaline                   equations bear much similarity to the distribution of ocean                     tracers.  However, a number of solutions have yet to be obtained                and tested against the oceanographic data sets to determine other               fundamental relationships.  This task involves the orderly                      examination of a number of such solutions.
