Taylor's diffusion theorem
The theorem of G. I. Taylor in the statistical theory of atmospheric turbulence: where x is the distance traveled by a particle in the time interval T, u is the fluctuation or eddy velocity of the particle, and R(ξ) is the Lagrangian correlation coefficient between the particle's velocity at time t and t + s.
