  2. Fusion (phonetics) - Wikipedia

    Examples include tune /tjuːn/ and assume /əˈsjuːm/. Some dialects exhibit coalescence in these cases, where some coalesce only /tj/ and /dj/, while others also coalesce /sj/ and /zj/. In General American, /j/ elides entirely when following alveolar consonants, in a process called yod dropping. The previous examples end up as /tuːn/ and ...

    For example, it is seen in the formation of raindrops as well as planetary and star formation. In meteorology, its role is crucial in the formation of rain . As droplets are carried by the updrafts and downdrafts in a cloud, they collide and coalesce to form larger droplets.

  4. Coalescent theory - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Coalescent_theory

    Coalescent theory is a model of how alleles sampled from a population may have originated from a common ancestor.In the simplest case, coalescent theory assumes no recombination, no natural selection, and no gene flow or population structure, meaning that each variant is equally likely to have been passed from one generation to the next.

  5. Coalescence (chemistry) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Coalescence_(chemistry)

    In chemistry, coalescence is a process in which two phase domains of the same composition come together and form a larger phase domain. In other words, the process by which two or more separate masses of miscible substances seem to "pull" each other together should they make the slightest contact.

    As the water droplet is very conductive, the induced charges will reside on the surface. The droplet has no net charge but one positive and one negative side. Inside the droplet, the electric field is zero. When two droplets with induced dipoles get close to each other, they will experience a force pulling the droplets closer until they coalesce.

    Wilson Bentley micrograph showing two classes of snowflake, plate and column. Missing is an example of a needle. The shape of a snowflake is determined primarily by the temperature and humidity at which it is formed. [8] Freezing air down to −3 °C (27 °F) promotes planar crystals (thin and flat).
