Gradient Richardson Number

Gradient Richardson Number is a dimensionless stability parameter in fluid dynamics that quantifies the ratio of buoyancy stabilization to shear destabilization in a stratified flow, defined as the ratio of the square of the buoyancy frequency to the square of the vertical shear of the horizontal velocity.
