The above result indicates that under the condition of advection, hu-midity variance meets the relation δ2 sm=D2 δ2SA + δ2SB and it is determined by relative magnitude of scalar variance of ad- midity variance meets the relation δsm = D2δsA + δsB vection transport. Our study reveals that, if the scalar variance of humidity or CO2 transported by advection is much larger than local scalar variance, observation value of scalar variance will deviate from M-O scaling; when scalar variance of advection transport is close to or less than local scalar variance, the observation value of scalar variance approximately meets M-O scal- ing.展开更多

Estimating entire AP number is also a familiar question in general physics. With standard atmosphere model, considering the number difference of AP caused by rough and uneven in the earth surface below, the sum of dry clean atmosphere particle is . So the whole number of AP including water vapor is . The rough estimation for the total number of AP on other planets (or satellites) in condensed state is also discussed on the base of it.展开更多
