A Tree Swaying in a Turbulent Wind: A Scaling Analysis [PDF]
, 2014 A tentative scaling theory is presented of a tree swaying in a turbulent wind. It is argued that the turbulence of the air within the crown is in the inertial regime. An eddy causes a dynamic bending response of the branches according to a time criterion.
