Fighting Chaos: Applications of Breeding - Lorenz Lecture

Explore the fundamental concepts of chaos and innovative techniques for improving forecasts in this Lorenz Lecture from the 2012 AGU Fall Meeting. Delve into the "breeding of instabilities" method, which allows for predicting regime changes in chaotic systems. Discover applications of these techniques across various dynamic chaotic systems, including ocean instabilities, coupled ocean-atmosphere systems, and the Martian atmosphere. Learn about the implications of these findings for data assimilation and gain insights into predicting unpredictable chaotic models. Examine the use of time-delay embedding methods for detecting instabilities in phase-space reconstructions from single time series data.
