Empirical singular vectors of baroclinic flows deduced from experimental data of a differentially heated rotating annulus
Instability is related to exponentially growing eigenmodes. Interestingly, when finite time intervals are considered, growth rates of certain initial perturbations can exceed the growth rates of the most unstable modes. Moreover, even when all modes are damped, such particular initial perturbations...
