•BVs
are like leading LVs but with finite amplitude
(which filters
out
unwanted fast instabilities, convection or even
Brownian motion!)
•In a system that has
“room” for multiple independent instabilities,
BVs and LVs share properties but are also
different.
•BVs don’t collapse into a single leading BV because of
nonlinearity
and stochastic forcing
•Like the leading LVs,
BVs are independent of the norm and the
interval of rescaling, the
only tunable parameter is the size
