Lorenz discovered the effect when he observed that runs of his weather model with initial condition data that was rounded in a seemingly inconsequential manner would fail to reproduce the results of runs with the unrounded initial condition data. A very small change in initial conditions had created a significantly different outcome.<br /><br />Dr Bnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4170913783015287649.post-60592731109482718542018-06-05T17:06:56.544+01:002018-06-05T17:06:56.544+01:00Hi River,
