Intergyre Lyapunov Exponent and Pollution Control Animations Derived from HF Radar along the Coast of Florida


The following links take you to AVI, QuickTime and Raster Metafile animations complementing our paper [not available yet]. The animations show 2 parcels of contaminant integrated using available HF radar along the coast of Florida, the Lyapunov exponents computed using this data and the two parcels superimposed on the Lyapunov exponents.
The link for QuickTime animations also contains a caption for each animation giving parameters and additional information.
