This study focuses on work in fluid dynamics problems related to ocean          waves and the stability of ocean currents and eddies.  Particular               problems to be addressed under this aware will be hydrodynamic                  stability and chaotic phenomena, internal tides, tidal friction, and            Modons.  An early idea held that fluids become unstable in every more           complex modes until they become turbulent in the stochastic sense.              Recent developments in hydrodynamic stability use the techniques of             strange attractors to show that the final state may termed "choatic",           i.e., not stochastic, and in some sense determinestic.  These                   techniques will be applied to the study of surface waves, tides,                internal tides, reasonantly forced Rossby waves, and quasigeostrophic           solitary waves in the ocean.  These studies address problems of                 fundamental importance to the overall dynamics of ocean motion, and are         likely to stir interest among many in the oceanographic community.
