          <b>Abstract: </b>  Topography plays a central role in ocean
          dynamics, but our intuition is nevertheless based largely on
          flat bottom models. This includes aspects like the baroclinic
          modes used for representing vertical structure and the
          character of baroclinic instability. A good example is Rossby
          waves, whose vertical structure and stability are both
          affected by bathymetry. Relatively modest topography causes
          the waves to be surface-trapped, which in turn alters their
          deformation radius and propagation speed. Rossby waves are
          also baroclinically unstable and this too is altered by
          bathymetry. If the topographic heights are large enough,
          energy is transferred directly to topographically-locked flows
          rather than to the most unstable wave found over a flat
          bottom. The resulting turbulent flow is also affected by
          bathymetry, with the deep flow slaved to topography and
          compensated surface eddies. The resulting flows strongly
          resemble those in the ocean interior, with westward
          propagation at the surface and deep gyres.</div>
