The residence time of water in the atmosphere revisited [PDF]

open access: yesHydrology and Earth System Sciences, 2017
This paper revisits the knowledge on the residence time of water in the atmosphere. Based on state-of-the-art data of the hydrological cycle we derive a global average residence time of 8.9 ± 0.4 days (uncertainty given as 1 standard deviation).

Surface Rejuvenation Model for Turbulent Thermophoresis Velocity

open access: yesEngineering Proceedings, 2023
A mathematical presentation of the surface rejuvenation model is used to relate the mean velocity and temperature distribution to the mean vortex dwell time and approach distance.

Residence time in micro-tidal basins [PDF]

open access: yes, 2022
To evaluate water quality, it is possible to use hydrodynamic indicators, instead of ecological models; the most widely used are some characteristic times-scale. Among them, in this work, residence time is considered.

Residence time and physical processes in lakes

open access: yesJournal of Limnology, 2003
The residence time of a lake is highly dependent on internal physical processes in the water mass conditioning its hydrodynamics; early attempts to evaluate this physical parameter emphasize the complexity of the problem, which depends on very different ...

Effect of microchannel aspect ratio on residence time distributions and the axial dispersion coefficient [PDF]

open access: yes, 2009
The effect of microchannel aspect ratio (channel depth/channel width) on residence time distributions and the axial dispersion coefficient have been investigated for Newtonian and shear thinning non-Newtonian flow using computational fluid dynamics.

A residence time theory for biodiversity

open access: yesThe American Naturalist, 2018
From microorganisms to the largest macroorganisms, much of Earth’s biodiversity is subject to forces of physical turnover. Residence time is the ratio of an ecosystem’s size to its rate of flow and provides a means for understanding the influence of physical turnover on biological systems.

Main Physical Processes Affecting the Residence Times of a Micro-Tidal Estuary

open access: yesJournal of Marine Science and Engineering, 2023
Residence time is an important parameter linked to the water quality in an estuary. In this paper, we identify and analyze the main processes that affect the residence time of the Caloosahatchee River Estuary, a micro-tidal and mixed diurnal-semidiurnal ...

Numerical study of residence time and exposure time in Daliaohe Estuary

open access: yesShui kexue jinzhan, 2012
To study the mass transport process in an estuary,residence time and exposure time were calculated for five boxes in Daliaohe Estuary in three typical runoff conditions using a three-dimensional convection-diffusion model based on Finite-Volume Coastal ...
