In [[physics]], [[engineering]], and [[earth science]]s, '''advection''' is a [[transport]] mechanism of a substance or [[Conservation of energy|conserved]] property by a [[fluid]] due to the fluid's bulk [[Motion (physics)|motion]]. An example of advection is the transport of [[pollutant]]s or [[silt]] in a [[river]] by bulk water flow downstream. Another commonly advected quantity is [[energy]] or [[enthalpy]]. Here the fluid may be any material that contains thermal energy, such as  [[water]] or [[air]]. In general, any substance or conserved, [[extensive]] quantity can be advected by a [[fluid]] that can hold or contain the quantity or substance.

In advection, a fluid transports some conserved quantity or material via bulk motion.  The fluid's motion is described [[Mathematics|mathematically]] as a [[vector field]], and the transported material is described by a [[scalar field]] showing its distribution over space. Advection requires currents in the fluid, and so cannot happen in rigid solids.  It does not include transport of substances by [[molecular diffusion]].
 
Advection is sometimes confused with the more encompassing process of [[convection]] which is the combination of advective transport and diffusive transport.
 
In [[meteorology]] and [[physical oceanography]], advection often refers to the transport of some property of the atmosphere or [[ocean]], such as [[heat]], humidity (see [[water vapor|moisture]]) or salinity. 
<!-- This is sentence is patently false, e.g. cloud formation is vertical advection of water vapor driven by density gradients! See, for example, the following sentence:
Meteorological or oceanographic advective transport is perpendicular to isobaric surfaces and is therefore predominantly [[Horizontal plane|horizontal]]. 
-->
Advection is important for the formation of [[orographic]] clouds and the precipitation of water from clouds, as part of the [[hydrological cycle]].
 
==Distinction between advection and convection==
The term ''advection'' sometimes serves as a synonym for ''[[convection]]'', but technically, ''convection'' covers the sum of transport both by [[diffusion]] and by advection.  Advective transport describes the movement of some quantity via the bulk flow of a fluid (as in a river or pipeline).<ref>Suthan S.

==Meteorology==
In [[meteorology]] and [[physical oceanography]], advection often refers to the transport of some property of the atmosphere or [[ocean]], such as [[heat]], humidity or salinity. Advection is important for the formation of [[orographic cloud]]s and the precipitation of water from clouds, as part of the [[hydrological cycle]].
 
== Other quantities ==
The advection equation also applies if the quantity being advected is represented by a [[probability density function]] at each point, although accounting for diffusion is more difficult.{{fact|date=April 2013}}
 
==Mathematics of advection==
The '''advection equation''' is the [[partial differential equation]] that governs the motion of a conserved [[scalar field]] as it is advected by a known [[velocity field|velocity vector field]].  It is derived using the scalar field's [[conservation law]], together with [[Gauss's theorem]], and taking the [[infinitesimal]] limit.
 
One easily-visualized example of advection is the transport of ink dumped into a river. As the river flows, ink will move downstream in a "pulse" via advection, as the water's movement itself transports the ink. If added to a lake without significant bulk water flow, the ink would simply disperse outwards from its source in a [[Diffusion|diffusive]] manner, which is not advection.  Note that as it moves downstream, the "pulse" of ink will also spread via diffusion.  The sum of these processes is called [[convection]].
 
===The advection equation===
 
In Cartesian coordinates the advection [[Operator (mathematics)|operator]] is
 
:<math>\mathbf{u} \cdot \nabla = u_x \frac{\partial}{\partial x} + u_y \frac{\partial}{\partial y} + u_z \frac{\partial}{\partial z}</math>.
 
where '''u''' = (''u<sub>x</sub>, u<sub>y</sub>, u<sub>z</sub>'') is the [[velocity field]], and ∇ is the [[del]] operator (note that [[Cartesian coordinate system|Cartesian coordinates]] are used here). 
 
The advection equation for a conserved quantity described by a [[scalar field]] ''ψ'' is expressed mathematically by a [[continuity equation]]:
 
{{Equation box 1
|indent =:
|equation = <math> \frac{\partial\psi}{\partial t} +\nabla\cdot\left( \psi{\bold u}\right) =0 </math>
|cellpadding
|border
|border colour = #50C878
|background colour = #ECFCF4}}
 
where  ∇∙ is the [[divergence]] operator and again '''u''' is the [[velocity field|velocity vector field]]. Frequently, it is assumed that the flow is [[incompressible flow|incompressible]], that is, the [[velocity field]] satisfies
 
:<math>\nabla\cdot{\bold u}=0</math>
 
and '''u''' is said to be [[solenoidal]]. If this is so, the above equation can be rewritten as
 
:{{Equation box 1
|equation=<math> \frac{\partial\psi}{\partial t} +{\bold u}\cdot\nabla\psi=0. </math>
|indent=:
|cellpadding
|border
|border colour = #0073CF
|background colour=#F5FFFA}}
 
In particular, if the flow is steady, then
 
:<math>{\bold u}\cdot\nabla\psi=0</math>
 
which shows that ''ψ'' is constant along a [[Streamlines, streaklines and pathlines|streamline]]. Hence, <math> \partial\psi/\partial t=0,</math> so ''ψ'' doesn't vary in time.
 
If a vector quantity '''a''' (such as a [[magnetic field]]) is being advected by the [[solenoidal]] [[velocity field]] '''u''', the advection equation above becomes:
 
:<math> \frac{\partial{\bold a}}{\partial t} + \left( {\bold u} \cdot \nabla \right) {\bold a} =0. </math>
 
Here, '''a''' is a [[vector field]] instead of the [[scalar field]] ''ψ''.
 
===Solving the equation===
 
The advection equation is not simple to solve [[numerical analysis|numerically]]: the system is a [[hyperbolic partial differential equation]], and interest typically centers on [[Continuous function|discontinuous]] "shock" solutions (which are notoriously difficult for numerical schemes to handle).
 
Even with one space dimension and a constant [[velocity field]], the system remains difficult to simulate. The equation becomes
 
:<math> \frac{\partial\psi}{\partial t}+u_x \frac{\partial\psi}{\partial x}=0 </math>
 
where ''ψ'' = ''ψ''(''x'', ''t'') is the [[scalar field]] being advected and ''u<sub>x</sub>'' is the ''x'' component of the vector '''u''' = (''u<sub>x</sub>'',0,0).

}}</ref> numerical simulation can be aided by considering the [[Skew-symmetric matrix|skew symmetric]] form for the advection operator.
 
:<math> \frac{1}{2} {\bold u} \cdot \nabla {\bold u} + \frac{1}{2} \nabla ({\bold u} {\bold u}) </math>
 
where
 
:<math> \nabla ({\bold u} {\bold u}) = [\nabla ({\bold u} u_x),\nabla ({\bold u} u_y),\nabla ({\bold u} u_z)]</math>
 
and '''u''' is the same as above.
 
Since skew symmetry implies only [[Imaginary number|imaginary]] [[eigenvalues]], this form reduces the "blow up" and "spectral blocking" often experienced in numerical solutions with sharp discontinuities (see Boyd<ref>{{cite book |last=Boyd

Using [[vector calculus identities#Vector dot product|vector calculus identities]], these operators can also be expressed in other ways, available in more software packages for more coordinate systems.
 
:<math>\mathbf{u} \cdot \nabla \mathbf{u} = \nabla \left( \frac{\|\mathbf{u}\|^2}{2} \right)  + \left( \nabla \times \mathbf{u} \right) \times \mathbf{u}</math>
 
:<math> \frac{1}{2} \mathbf{u} \cdot \nabla \mathbf{u} + \frac{1}{2} \nabla (\mathbf{u} \mathbf{u}) = \nabla \left( \frac{\|\mathbf{u}\|^2}{2} \right)  + \left( \nabla \times \mathbf{u} \right) \times \mathbf{u} + \frac{1}{2} \mathbf{u} (\nabla \cdot \mathbf{u}) </math>
 
This form also makes visible that the [[Skew-symmetric matrix|skew symmetric]] operator introduces error when the velocity field diverges. Solving the advection equation by numerical methods is very challenging and there is a large scientific literature about this.

Older people with a lot less than 18.five BMI are considered to be underweight. Getting underweight poses numerous wellness downfalls these because weak immune task, tiredness, anemia, infertility, heart problems and more. Consulting to a doctor for thorough assessment plus correct remedy is important.



Don't let others tell you which you're overweight or that you've put about credence plus allow that be a motive to wish To lose credence. Many people normally perplex physique with obese and perhaps the cause the previous costumes don't fit you today is because waistline has wider considering of physique instead of obese. So be sure you're doing it for the correct cause.

The calories burned is a terrific technique to apply being a tenet to pin people whom might be in danger for problems associated to their over-all body makeup. It's really a lot better substitute than to just provide certain thought to weight whenever wanting to define your total health or his / her peril for long-lasting issues. It is crucial taking straight into concern numerous components when identifying another person's dangers for diseases, but it really is a beneficial beginning point plus a fair illustration of a person's general health state.

Several issues happen when depending on BMI to supply a pic of someone's overall body condition. By way of illustration, the BMI index fails to inquire regarding gender, age or ethnicity specifics, that experts have found to experience an significant part in determining precisely what a healthy fat has to be for an individual which is woman, Fifty years old and Asian.

The Body mass index is a figurative measuring which is used on the basis of a height/weight ratio of an individual's body to determine the percentage of body fat that is present inside a person's weight. Because, it's development it is very chosen because a leading guideline to predict risks a person will have towards certain illnesses associated with obesity and high body fat. BMI is a important signal of what dangers a individual can have of attracting certain ailments plus illnesses like diabetes, heart disease, and cancers which can cause reduced quality and longevity of lifetime.

The website also states which clients receive 28-day preset selections (tailored by registered dietitians), vacuum-sealed prepared meals plus nutrition supplements. After that, customers could choose to personalize their menu choices. The targeted macronutrient composition of Jenny Craig weight loss 1200-1500 calorie selections is 60% carbohydrate, 20% fat and 20% protein.

By being aware of the value of utilizing this kind of calculator, you will be able to spread the term which women all over the world should utilize it regardless of their age or nationality. You can do all these plus more when you know the importance of utilizing a calories burned walking calculator for ladies.
