Dispersion Coefficient
Dispersion Coefficient : A number that serves as a measure of dispersion, dispersion being a process in which radiation is separated into its component wavelengths. In oceanography, the speed of a wave disturbance depends upon its wavelength. Any disturbance that can be analyzed into two or more harmonic wave trains will undergo dispersion, each component being propagated at its own group velocity, provided this velocity is not zero
