18 ummary 8 A framework for linear and non linear time-lapse AO analysis is formulated. Agreement of linear term in ΔR with Landrø s work. Higher order approximations made corrections in ΔR. hysical model validated the importance of low order interpretable nonlinear corrections.
19 Conclusions 9 In plausible large contrast time-lapse scenarios Landrø s approximation requires correction. hysical modeling study validates nonlinear framework with real data in controlled settings.
