We examine to what extent the l1 norm of coherence through an open quantum system is affected by noise. To discuss the effect of the noise, we give a definition of the decay rate of the l1 norm of coherence, i.e., the value of the coherence of initial states divided by the coherence of final states. Then we use the measure of the decay of coherence to discuss to what extent several noisy channels...
