Transitions to electrochemical turbulence.

We report experimental evidence of transitions from limit cycle oscillations through a phase turbulent regime to space-time defect turbulence in a spatially (quasi-)one-dimensional electrochemical system with nonlocal coupling. The transitions are characterized in terms of the defect density, the Karhunen-Loève decomposition dimension, and a measure of the degree of spatial correlation in the data. Furthermore, these quantities give the first experimental confirmation that the spatial coupling range in electrochemical systems indeed depends on the distance between the working and the counterelectrode.
