Published in 2025 at "Limnology and Oceanography"

DOI: 10.1002/lno.70227

Abstract: Particles are a key component of aquatic light climate due to their attenuation of light. Near the water surface, waves and sheared currents can induce a preferential orientation of nonspherical particles that alters their inherent… read more here.

Published in 2018 at "Journal of Fluid Mechanics"

DOI: 10.1017/jfm.2018.738

Abstract: We report a theoretical study of the angular dynamics of small, non-inertial spheroidal particles in a linear wave field. We recover the observation recently reported by DiBenedetto et al. (J. Fluid Mech., vol. 837, 2018,… read more here.
