From: Sedimentation and drag in drifting macrophytes and plastic objects: a model
Predicted sinking velocity ω from model C. For macrophytes exhibiting different combinations of shape factor Sf and nominal diameter dn. Kinetic viscosity of sea water, macrophyte density and seawater density were considered to be the median conditions observed during our experimental setup, i.e. \(\:\nu\:\) = 1.0915*10− 6 m2 s− 1, \(\:\rho\:\) = 1104.44 kg m− 3 and \(\:{\rho\:}_{H2O}\) = 1009.45 kg m−3.
