Sentences with phrase «diffusivity appears»

The experiments confirmed results from earlier more idealized studies, particularly the importance of reduced wave dissipation activity, in which the mid-latitude decrease of effective diffusivity appears to be dominant.

Not exact matches

For those wanting to understand the maths a little bit, the 3/2 factor that appears everywhere in Miskolczi's equation B1 is the diffusivity approximation already mentioned (and see note 2) where we need to sum the radiances over all directions to get flux.

In the limit of small diffusivity, the stratification becomes concentrated in a thin diffusive layer, or front, whose thickness appears to scale as the one - third power of the diffusivity.
