  The formation of localized structures in the chlorine dioxide-idodine-malonic
acid (CDIMA) reaction-diffusion system is investigated numerically using a
realistic model of this system. We analyze the one-dimensional patterns formed
along the gradients imposed by boundary feeds, and study their linear stability
to symmetry-breaking perturbations (Turing instability) in the plane transverse
to these gradients. We establish that an often-invoked simple local linear
analysis which neglects longitudinal diffusion is inappropriate for predicting
the linear stability of these patterns. Using a fully nonuniform analysis, we
investigate the structure of the patterns formed along the gradients and their
stability to transverse Turing pattern formation as a function of the values of
two control parameters: the malonic acid feed concentration and the size of the
reactor in the dimension along the gradients. The results from this
investigation are compared with existing experiments.
