Spatiotemporal chaos collapses to either a rest state or a propagating pulse in a ring network of diffusively coupled, excitable Morris-Lecar neurons. Adding global varying synaptic coupling to the ring network reveals complex transient behavior. Spatiotemporal chaos collapses into a transient pulse that reinitiates spatiotemporal chaos to allow sequential pattern switching until a collapse to the rest state. A domain of irregular neuron activity coexists with a domain of inactive neurons forming a transient chimeralike state. Transient spatial localization of the chimeralike state is observed for stronger synapses.
