Recent developments in a variety of fields of geophysics                   have revealed that the core-mantle boundary region exhibits a                   very rich range of behavior.  Simple explanations of the wide                   range of data which have recently become available do not seem to               be forthcoming.  The PIs will investigate this region,                          concentrating on two aspects:  1) the modes of interaction                      between core and lower mantle convection; and the relative                      importance of different mechanisms of core-mantle coupling; and                 2) the structure of the boundary layers at the core-mantle                      boundary, using both simple dynamical models and data to bound                  structure at the core-mantle boundary.
