Midplane solid-to-gas ratio of silicate grains (solid lines) and pebbles (dashed lines) at different diffusion strength αtur and pebble flux Fp/g at effective alpha of αacc = 3 × 10−3. Left, middle, and right panels: results for αtur = 3 × 10−4, 10−3 and 3 × 10−3, respectively. Red, brown, green, blue and black lines represent cases of Fp/g = 0.5, 0.4, 0.3, 0.2 and 0.1, respectively. Silicate grains have the peaks of their solid-to-gas ratios just inside the snow line. This is because the silicate grains initially have the same scale height with that of pebbles and they gradually diffuse vertically to reach the gas scale height (see Eq. (15)).
