## Abstract The turbulent diffusivity __K__ of the atmosphere has first been studied by Richardson 1926 who empirically found that __K__ depends on the scale __l__, __K__ = __Al__^Ξ±^, with Ξ± = 4/3 and __A__ = 0.6 cm^2/3^ s^β1^. This empirical scaling law is derived here from a unified theory (based
