This project is to investigate the dynamics of the North Atlantic Ocean by comparing the density field from observations with comparable areas resulting from the applications of a model based on the method of characteristics by luyten & & Stommel. A comparison of terms in the potential thickness equations is indicative of the source of local characteristics as derived from eastern and western boundaries. A mapping of the N. Atlantic based on the characteristics will be made. A second effort will be to relate the diagnostics to climatological wind-stress, heat- flux, and evaporation/precipitation. A simple laboratory experiment will be performed to examine vorticity dynamics for cross-equatorial floe.
