Progress in Characterizing the Route to Geostrophic Turbulence and Redesigning Thermally Driven Rotating Annulus Experiments

In this paper we calculate Lyapunov exponents and adapt a diagnostic tool, originally used for another purpose by Lorenz (1969), to characterize the degree and nature of the chaotic behavior observed in a thermally driven rotating fluid annulus at different points in parameter space as a control par...
