When a strong ocean current interacts with ocean bottom                         topography, eddies are formed on the lee side.  This proposal is                to study the process of eddy generation and decay by both steady                and unsteady flows past topographic features.  The PI (Boyer)                   will simulate the effect of topographic interaction in rotating                 tank experiments by moving the topographic obstacles relative to                a stratified, rotating fluid.  Additionally, a numerical model                  will be run (Holland) using a primitive equation formulation with               20 layers in the vertical.  Results of the laboratory and                       computer models will be used to predict the geophysical result of               the interactions in the ocean.
