 Plume similarity in power-law stratification

For $N^2=K{z}^{\beta }$ and positive pure-power fluxes, the similarity solution exponents are $q=3+\beta /2$, $m=4+\beta$ and $f=4+3\beta /2$. Increasing volume and momentum and decreasing positive buoyancy flux require $-4<\beta <-8/3$. At fixed nonzero $K$ the endpoint coefficient limits are singular.
