This is the length of data over which one estimate of dissipation rate is made for each shear probe. Choosing the length of data, in units of meters, for the estimation of dissipation rates makes this choice fairly platform and vehicle independent, and allows it to be mainly driven by the science one wishes to accomplish.
Using our recommended fft processing, each Fft-length segment will have 1.9 degrees of freedom (dof). Normally a single fft-length as diss-length is ill-advised and has poor statistical reliability.
