  The mechanism of diffusion in supercooled liquids is investigated from the
potential energy landscape point of view, with emphasis on the crossover from
high- to low-T dynamics. Molecular dynamics simulations with a time dependent
mapping to the associated local mininum or inherent structure (IS) are
performed on unit-density Lennard-Jones (LJ). New dynamical quantities
introduced include r2_{is}(t), the mean-square displacement (MSD) within a
basin of attraction of an IS, R2(t), the MSD of the IS itself, and g_{loc}(t)
the mean waiting time in a cooperative region. At intermediate T, r2_{is}(t)
posesses an interval of linear t-dependence allowing calculation of an
intrabasin diffusion constant D_{is}. Near T_{c} diffusion is intrabasin
dominated with D = D_{is}. Below T_{c} the local waiting time tau_{loc} exceeds
the time, tau_{pl}, needed for the system to explore the basin, indicating the
action of barriers. The distinction between motion among the IS below T_{c} and
saddle, or border dynamics above T_{c} is discussed.
