Horizontal outflow of wind from an area. In a surface divergence, outflow originates from the upper atmosphere.

The loss of energy from a wavefront as a consequence of geometrical spreading, observable as a decrease in wave amplitude. Spherical divergence decreases energy with the square of the distance. Cylind [..]

The expansion or spreading out of a horizontal wind field. Generally associated with high pressure and light winds. 

The expansion or spreading out of a vector field; usually said of horizontal winds. It is the opposite of convergence. Divergence at upper levels of the atmosphere enhances upward motion, and hence th [..]

1650s, from Modern Latin divergentia, from divergens (see diverge). Related: Divergency.

An atmospheric condition that exists when the winds cause a horizontal net outflow of air from a specific region.

The expansion or spreading out of a vector field; also, a precise measure thereof. In mathematical discussion, divergence is taken to include convergence, that is, negative divergence. The mean diverg [..]

See beam divergence.

A situation that occurs when two lines on a chart move in opposite directions vertically. People often look for divergences by comparing a stock's direction to the direction of its RSI, its M [..]

The angular spreading of a laser beam with distance.

The evolution of increasing difference between lineages in one or more characters. © 2005 by Sinauer Associates, Inc. All rights reserved. Futuyma, D. Evolution.

Definition A situation in which two or more averages or indexes fail to show confirming trends.

It is the percent difference in nucleotide sequence between two related DNA sequences or in amino acid sequences between two proteins.

(n) - the act of moving apart

The phenomenon of neural connections in which one cell sends signals to many other cells. See Figure 3.18. Compare convergence.

The acquisition of differences after evolutionary separation (e.g., of species).

In technical analysis, a situation where price and momentum move in opposite directions, such as prices rising while momentum is falling. Divergence is considered either positive (bullish) or negative [..]

When two or more averages or indices move in different directions, failing to show a market trend.

The flow of the wind resulting in a horizontal outflow of air from a region. The opposite of divergence is convergence

of surface waters is indicated by surface drifters leaving an area. Upwelled water, that is usually colder and nutrient-rich, from below replaces the diverging surface flow.

A horizontal flow of water, in different directions, from a common center or zone; it is often associated with upwelling. Also see convergence.

An improper term used to describe the spreading of ultrasonic waves beyond the near field. It is a function of transducer diameter and wavelength in the medium.

Wind movement that results in a horizontal net outlow of air from a particular region. Divergence at lower levels is assiciated with a downward movement of air from aloft.

A term that describes the degree to which a light source expands as the distance from the laser increases. Divergence is generally specified as a full angle and can be used to predict spot sizes at a [..]

Outflow of air as in an anticyclone.

A measure of the expansion or spreading out of a vector field; usually said of horizontal winds. It is the opposite of convergence. Divergence at upper levels of the atmosphere enhances upward motion, and hence the potential for thunderstorm development (if other factors also are favorable).

The expansion or spreading out of a vector field; usually said of horizontal winds. It is the opposite of convergence. Divergence at upper levels of the atmosphere enhances upward motion, and hence the potential for thunderstorm development (so are favorable).

The condition that exists when the distribution of winds within a given area is such that there is a net horizontal flow of air outward from the region. In divergence at lower levels, the resulting de [..]

The evolution of increasing difference between lineages in one or more characters.

The expansion or spreading out of a vector field; usually said of horizontal winds. The opposite of convergence. Divergence at upper levels of the atmosphere enhances upward motion, and hence the potential for thunderstorm, rain or cloud development (if other factors also are favourable).

Wind movement that results in a horizontal net outflow of air from a particular region. Divergence at lower levels is associated with a downward movement of air from aloft. Contrast with convergence.

Spreading out of air molecules away from each other and a certain location. More air is leaving than entering the location. The opposite of convergence, divergence at upper levels of the atmosphere enhances upward motion, and hence the potential for thunderstorm.

The condition that exists when the distribution of winds within a given area results in a net horizontal outflow of air from the region. In divergence at upper levels, the resulting deficit is compens [..]

This is an area where winds/windfields diverge. It can be at the surface or aloft. Divergence at the surface usually indicates anti-cyclonic development.

A wind pattern whereby there is a net outflow of air from some point.

 – Is when the trend of a stock price does not match the trend of an indicator. I.e. if the share price is going up but the indicators are trending down we have divergence. Positive divergences are Bullish for a stock – where the indicator is trending higher while the share price may be falling or steady. Negative divergences are Bearish – where th [..]
