However, it contains no geometric information regarding the spatial distribution of the phases. The spatial distribution can be characterized using higher-order statistics. Two-point statistics (f2) quantify average relative phase positions, and the geometric features encoded in f2 influence material properties.

A weak wave that brought some very light showers on Thursday is falling apart and moving out of the region tonight, and behind it, a nice little break for our Friday. Partly sunny skies to start the day, before some clouds start to move in Friday evening. Temperatures are also getting a boost, into the upper-30s once again. All in all, a pretty good day to get outside, before more light showers arrive Friday night and look to stick around into both Saturday and Sunday.
