Synchronization in a coupled two-layer quasigeostrophic model of baroclinic instability – Part 1: Master-slave configuration

Synchronization is studied using a pair of diffusively-coupled, two-layer quasi-geostrophic systems each comprising a single baroclinic wave and a zonal flow. In particular, the coupling between the systems is in the well-known master-slave or one-way configuration. Nonlinear time series analysis, p...
