Finite Size Lyapunov Exponent (FSLE)
Finite Size Lyapunov Exponent (FSLE) is a local lagrangian diagnostics that is widely used for the study of transport and mixing processes of oceanographic tracers (Sea surface temperature, Ocean color ...). Its computation is derived from the definition of Finite-Time Lyapunov Exponent that allows the identification of Lagrangian Coherent Structures.
