Mathematical Fluid Dynamics
Thickness refers to the measurement of how deep or wide a layer of fluid is, often expressed in terms of a vertical distance. In environmental fluid mechanics and geophysical flows, thickness can represent the extent of stratification within a fluid body, the depth of a boundary layer, or the vertical distance over which significant flow interactions occur. Understanding thickness is crucial as it affects the dynamics of fluid motion, including how forces are distributed and how layers mix or interact.
