Weather and the Butterfly Effect

OK.

This is your thesis/opinion/thinking which I accept . Then I must assume ,having such, You either must have well funded/researched knowledge and understanding of both systems or you have read about it from reliable source.

So if You do not want to elaborate yourself then may be You can indicate a source so I can read it without wasting time for lenghty web search.

I tought for example that small compact well organised systems without front lines located in tropical climatic soup are easier to simulate then vast /huge midlatitude systems traversing through both land and ocean environments -hence influenced by more unpredictable variables. But I can be wrong of course.

Is chaos theory part of maritime academy curriculum in USA? If so then I am impressed. I had only 3 years of metheorology plus practical experience in using forecasts done by experts who should know such theory .
Having done negligible number of forecasts myself in the absence of professional advise.

Have relieved abt 50 masters of different nationalities including Anglo-Saxons and been relieved by same number. 100 is not much but none has elaborated on chaos theory while discussing next voyage weather.
