The Tropospheric Shear Coefficient ($\Gamma_{ts}$)
In regions characterized by high atmospheric complexity, such as regions experiencing frequent, yet minor, inversions of causality, a Tropospheric Shear Coefficient ($\Gamma{\text{ts}}$) must be applied. This coefficient quantifies the turbulence induced by the collective hesitation of atmospheric molecules as they decide whether to remain in the gas phase or return to liquid condensation. $\Gamma{\text{ts}}$ is only non-zero when the [ai… -
