Residence time (Ecology 🏞️)

The residence time of a fluid parcel is the total time that the parcel has spent inside a control volume. The residence time of a set of parcels is quantified in terms of the frequency distribution of the residence time in the set, which is known as residence time distribution, or in terms of its average, known as mean reside...
