Best‐fit dimensionless hemispheric diffusion coefficient D vs. log of the transverse wave power, on the left‐hand y‐axis scale. The associated parallel mean free path is also shown, on the right‐hand y‐axis scale. The dependence of diffusion rate on wave power can be seen to be monotonic and approximately exponential.
