“…The qualitative average value of the critical wavelength of convection fingers, observed after the onset of convection, is computed by selecting a centered horizontal segment (to remove the edge effect) of the CO2-water interface and dividing this distance by the number of convection fingers in this segment. The onset time of convection and the critical wavelength of convection fingers (calculated from the experiments conducted in the homogeneous cell) are transferred to dimensionless forms using a length scale and a time scale as given in Equations 4 and 5, and the values can be compared with the numerically predicted values [14,15,18,19,21,22,[44][45][46][47]…”
