24. The diffusion component of surface flux, (Formula presented) is omitted. We found that if such a term is made significant, the model yields a somewhat distorted ripple shape.
25. This function has been identified by the known mean and variance values from a two-parametric family of probability densities, (Formula presented), where C is the normalizing coefficient and (Formula presented). The identified values of parameters are (Formula presented) and (Formula presented).
