Abstract
Spatiotemporal chaos can be produced by complicated local dynamics in a small spatial region and observed globally through a process we call information transport. Information transport can be detected by computation of an information-theoretic quantity, the time-delayed mutual information, between measurements of the system at separate spatial points.Keywords
