Abstract
We develop the compound matrix method and the Chebyshev tau method to be applicable to linear and nonlinear stability problems for convection in porous media, in a natural way. It is shown how to obtain highly accurate answers to problems which may be stiff, and spurious eigenvalues are avoided. A detailed analysis is provided for a porous convection problem of much current interest, namely convection with a horizontally varying temperature gradient.
