  • Quantifying linear disturbance growth in periodic and aperiodic systems

    Creator:
    Wolfe, Christopher Lee
    Abstract:
    The mathematical and physical connections between three different ways of quantifying linear predictability in geophysical fluid systems are studied in a series of analytical and numerical models. Normal modes, as they are traditionally formulated in the instabilities theories of geophysical fluid dynamics, characterize the asymptotic development of disturbances to stationary...
