Analysis and Forecasts for 15 Jun 0000Z to 17 Jun 0000Z 2017, Issued 15 Jun 2017

Forward FTLE; 1 day window

The following figures show the FTLEs in the domain, at different times. These FTLE computations are for a time window of 1 day for the forecast of 15 June 2017 to 17 June 2017. The window center shifts in 6 hour intervals.
The flow maps were calculated using a PDE based approach by using 5th order spatial and 3rd order temporal schemes, and a novel composition based approach.

Forward FTLE; 12 hour window

The following figures show the FTLEs in the domain, at different times. These FTLE computations are for a time window of 12 hours for the forecast of 15 June 2017 to 17 June 2017. The window center shifts in 6 hour intervals.
The flow maps were calculated using a PDE based approach by using 5th order spatial and 3rd order temporal schemes, and a novel composition based approach.
