A theoretical study of the Gulf Stream along the U.S.                   southern continental slope is proposed, focused on the dynamics                 of frontal instabilities and meanders.  Earlier studies by the                  P.I. have demonstrated the importance of two simple aspect ratios               of the stream, and perturbations in them, in determining these                  dynamics.  In this study, perturbations will be generated by                    topographic irregularities (particularly an isolated bump),                     transport variations, and strong atmospheric forcing.  Using                    these types of forcing, a variety of Gulf Stream characteristics                will be investigated, including the possible existence of two                   distinct meander solutions, the relation of unstable waves on the               stream to observed meanders and eddies, and shoreward intrusions                by these meanders and eddies, and their possible relation to                    intense atmospheric forcing.
