Complex Ginzburg Landau Equation

[hanson]

Hi all.
Anyone know things about the complex Ginzburg Landau equation?
What is its relation with fluid mechanics? It seems that it is related to the nonlinear Schrödinger equation?
While the nonlinear Schrödinger equation describe the evolution of wave packets in water of finite depths, what complex Ginzurg Landau equation is governing?
Please kindly help and refer me to the right articles...

I also found that file...But that's too difficult to me to read it..
